Paris Hilton is delighted to be friends with Nicole Richie again.

The pair had been feuding for over a year, but this week rekindled their friendship and agreed to appear alongside each other in a new series of hit reality show 'The Simple Life'.

Paris, 25, is thrilled she and Nicole have been reunited.

She said: "I love Nicole, and I'm so glad we're friends again.

"I missed her. She's like my sister - we've known each other 23 years. I'm glad we can put the feud behind us. I'm really happy she's back in my life."

The pair fell out in April 2005 after Nicole allegedly showed Paris' infamous homemade sex tape, 'One Night in Paris', to mutual friends at a party.

Both girls denied this was the real reason but neither would shed any light on why they had stopped being pals.

Their relationship got so bad that Paris and Nicole, the adopted daughter of singer Lionel Richie, even had to film the last series of 'The Simple Life' separately because they refused to talk to each other.
