Los Angeles  - Pregnant celebrity Nicole Richie is creating a line of maternity clothing for the maternity store A Pea in the Pod. Richie, who already has a 19-month-old daughter, will also model the new fashion line.

"Pea in the Pod is such a known company for pregnant women. They carry great lines, and so when they asked me to create a line for them, I was really excited and eager to do it," Nicole told People magazine.

"I think the pregnant body is beautiful, and I think you should show it off." (dpa)
