Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie’s reality television show The Simple Life has been cancelled.
The show was a big hit with viewers and ran for five series, but the E! network has dropped the socialite’s show from next year’s schedules after the girls’ private lives started overshadowing the programme.
“Viewers would see Paris all day long on the news about her going to jail, so they didn’t care about seeing her camping with kids. It just was too played out,” an E! network source says.
It’s just possible another network might pick up the show, but with the girls’ recent legal troubles it’s unlikely.
Nicole will serve four days in jail later this year.
Neither Paris or Nicole have commented on The Simple Life’s cancellation.
