Actress Nicole Richie has spent years being photographed and making headlines. Now Richie's new baby, Harlow, is getting in on the act. Richie and Harlow appear on the cover of People Magazine that hits the stands Friday.

Richie, 26, has a daughter with boyfriend Joel Madden, 28. In the People article they talk about how parenthood has already changed them and they pose for an exclusive family photo album.

Richie is the adopted daughter of musician Lionel Richie. She became an overnight sensation when she and best friend Paris Hilton starred on the reality television show "The Simple Life."

Richie has had a turbulent life, with most of it tracked by the media, complete with drugs, jail time and speculation of having an eating disorder.

Her daughter, Harlow, was born Jan. 11.
