Nicole Richie's boyfriend is so concerned about her health he wants to be her live-in cook.

The 'Simple Life' star has been at the centre of eating disorder rumours after shrinking down to a size 00 and her new love, Brody Jenner, is so determined to make sure she eats well that he plans to move in with her.

A source told Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "Brody thinks Nicole is vulnerable. He wants to move in and cook for her."

Meanwhile, Nicole has slammed rumours that she was admitted to a rehab clinic to help her get over an eating disorder last week.

The adopted daughter of singer Lionel Richie posted a personal message on her MySpace page refuting the claims.

She wrote: "I did not check myself into an eating disorder rehab. I don't know why or how this rumour started, but I am home, in Los Angeles, and very happy.

"I do not have an eating disorder, and I don't know how many times I have to say it."
