Nicole Richie’s Daughter Kate, 18, Reveals Angel‑Wing Back Tattoo in Instagram Return

Richie told People that her daughter, born Harlow Winter Kate, has long used her middle name, with relatives signaling support in Instagram comments.

Overview

  • Kate shared photos on Feb. 9 showing fine‑line angel wings on her upper back while wearing a backless gold dress, captioned with a single wing emoji.
  • Nicole Richie commented with a string of hearts, and fans noted the ink echoes Richie’s own angel‑wing tattoos.
  • People previously reported Richie’s on‑the‑record confirmation that her daughter goes by her middle name, with no formal name‑change reported.
  • The post also highlighted Kate’s jet‑black hair, a look she first debuted on social media in mid‑2025.
  • Family support was visible last month when Joel Madden wrote “That’s my girl” and Benji Madden posted an emotional birthday message on Instagram.
