Many thinkers, writers, and poets have said that love is magical and has the power to completely change a person. Life has shown this over and over again. The most famous socialite of the 2000s, Paris Hilton, is a great example of this. When she went to a cool party, she was ready for anything. Who would have thought that she would choose a quiet family life away from the paparazzi years later?
Paris Hilton, the World-famous party girl
Paris Hilton first got noticed when she became one of New York City’s most famous party girls in the late 1990s. As the daughter of Richard Hilton, who made a lot of money, and actress Kathy Hilton, she could afford to live in luxury and did so happily.
Even though her parents raised her in a strict way, she was always rebellious, and they couldn’t change that. Paris would sneak out of her house and school to go to parties, and her mother would find out where she had been by reading the news.
Her popularity only grew as time went on. People around her called her a “phenomenon” because, other than her striking looks and rebellious ways, Paris had nothing else to brag about. Even though she couldn’t act, sing, or do anything else to impress people, they still wanted to see her and hear about her life.
And the famous blonde didn’t hesitate to talk about the troubled parts of her own life. She made up love stories right in front of everyone. Hilton dated a lot of famous people, including actors Edward Furlong and Chris Zylka, singer Nick Carter, Good Charlotte guitarist Benji Madden, and many more. Several of Paris’s relationships even led to an engagement, but none of them ended in a wedding.
The man who changed everything.
Years went by, and people still thought of Paris as the party queen with a small dog in her hands. As an adult woman who had built a successful business off of her fame, she started to get tired of it. Hilton’s image had taken over her life, and she wanted to get rid of it any way she could.
People think because of the character I played — people assume before they meet me that I’m a really ditzy dumb blonde. With everything that’s happening, though, with my business, I think people can understand that you couldn’t possibly get this far being a dumb blonde,
said Paris in an interview. She had stopped being a rebel a long time ago, and now she wanted a family and a quiet life.
Paris knew her “Mr. Right” for a long time. Carter Reum hung out with her when they were kids. But they didn’t get to know each other better until they were 39 years old. When they were at the same table with their friends for the first time, Hilton knew she was looking at “the one.” Right away, a beautiful romance began. A year later, he asked his sweetheart to marry him.
As an adult, she didn’t turn the relationship into a reality show like Paris did when she was younger. She took care of this relationship, and she only shared a photo with her fiancé on social media once in a while. Even at the engagement party, only family members were there.
Paris told him on their anniversary that she had never in her life even thought that love could be like this. She thanked her fiance in a letter:
You have changed my life in so many ways and made me become the woman I was always meant to be. And I have never felt happier or more alive.
And because she was with Carter Reum, Hilton talked about kids for the first time ever.
“I finally just have a real life.”
Paris tried very hard to get pregnant after the wedding. Her mother said that the idea was all the star could think about. But none of the IVF attempts worked. Kim Kardashian, who has known Hilton for a long time, then told her about her own experience with a surrogate. She also put her friend in touch with the doctor who had helped her have her two youngest children.
I’m really excited just to move on for the next step of my life and finally just have a real life,
said Paris about her biggest dream. She was already thinking of names for her future children. If she had a girl, she would call her London, and she couldn’t stop saying that becoming a mother is now the most important thing in her life.
People say that love can completely change a person. Paris Hilton used to be one of the most scandalous celebrities in the world. Now, she is a loving wife and homemaker who loves her home more than anywhere else in the world.
Her biggest dream came true on January 24, 2023, when she gave birth to her first child. But we know this is just the beginning because the new mom says her main goal right now is to have a house full of kids.
