Joel Madden: Fatherhood is Easier Second Time Around
Joel Madden and Nicole Richie were seen at the Noble Humanitarian Awards in Beverly Hills and dished about Harlow and their new addition to the family, 1 month-old Sparrow.
Rocker Joel Madden, who along with Nicole Richie is parent to 1-year-old Harlow and 1-month-old Sparrow, told PEOPLE “I love kids, I love working with kids, I love being around kids.”
He also noted that fatherhood was a little easier the second time around. “Well, one, it’s a boy – so you’re not as precious,” he says, “so he’s going to be a little tougher.”
So, how has big sister Harlow liked having a little brother? Joel said, “She loves it. She’s so happy, she’s just psyched. She totally gets it. It fit in perfectly there – hasn’t been a hitch.”
Joel was presented with an award at the Noble Humanitarian Awards by his wife Nicole Richie and Nicole’s dad Lionel Richie. He won the award for his work on The Art of Elysium, which is an organization that gets celebrities to lend their time and talents to help children with serious medical conditions.
