Nicky Hilton was an "It Girl" in the 90s, a shy, twinning accomplice to sister Paris's
ditzy brand of bombshell.
She was born super rich.
She never had a sex tape.
And she was invoking the kind of gossip usually reserved for, well, someone who actually did
things.
Hamptons Magazine publisher Jason Binn told Vanity Fair, "They live very colorful lives.
They're little stars.
They've become names.
To them it's like a job.
I believe they wake up every morning and say, OK, where am I supposed to be tonight?"
But that was all years ago — what ever happened to Paris's kid sister?
With loads of family drama, and a bottomless bank account, here's what she's been up to
over the last several years.
Nicky O-no
In 2006, the hotel heiress decided to launch her own boutique line of luxury digs, bringing
two brand new "Nicky O" hotels to Chicago and Miami.
The "O" was for "Olivia", Hilton's middle name.
In an interview with The Miami Herald, Hilton said, "I want to bring a fashion element to
the hotel, because that's what I do.
I think it's definitely going to bring a trendy, fashionable person who's coming into town
to have fun."
Hotel developer Robert Falor went on to say, "People want to be part of and feel like they're
in the 'in' crowd.
Nicky brings that."
But she wouldn't bring it far enough — and the venture would go bankrupt in less than
a year.
According to Chicago Business, Falor Group then filed a lawsuit against Hilton, claiming
she didn't promote the hotels and hired out design work she should have done herself.
The two properties were later sold at auction — a no go, for Nicky O.
Heiress author
Hilton's insider-wardrobe fashion guide 365 Style hit the shelves in fall of 2014.
"It all started when I.. you know..
Went to my closet in the morning and felt like I had nothing to wear."
So what was the solution?
Hilton continued:
"So I found that if you stick to six staples and five accessories each season, you have
a wardrobe of on trend items you're going to wear."
Describing her own style as "sophisticated with an edge", Hilton confessed to a fashion
fail when she was younger.
Dishing to WhoWhatWear, Hilton said, "I wouldn't say I regret it, but my sister and I used
to love dressing alike.
I'm sure there are a lot of photos you can find.
I look back on that and find it funny."
Meeting Mister Right
It was a match made in trust fund heaven.
You might think Hilton's the one with the hook-ups, but her 31-year-old hubby James
Rothschild comes from one of the richest families on earth — a finance and banking family
worth $700 trillion.
Topped off with the Hilton's estimated $900 million fortune?
These two make it rain every day of the week.
But the pair met old-school style.
In Avenue Magazine, Hilton shared, "In the olden days that's where you met your husband,
at a wedding."
According to the New York Times, Hilton met Rothschild at Formula One heiress Petra Ecclestone's
multi-million dollar wedding in 2011.
The two maintained a long-distance relationship between Hilton's LA, and Rothschild's
London, for about a year, until making things official when they moved to New York City
together in 2012.
Tossing Mister Wrong
Hilton had just moved to The Big Apple to be be with her future hubby, but that didn't
mean the skeletons would stay in her closet.
It wasn't long before The New York Post reported in 2012, that Hilton's ex-husband
Todd Meister was hitting the heiress up, initiating sexy emails with Hilton while he was linked
to Renata Shamrakova . Topping it off, his messages were basically Usher lyrics.
"I will never make it by without you (without you..without you)."
So who the heck was Mister Meister, anyway?
Wayyyyy back in August 2004, during a wild Vegas weekend with gal-pals Nicole Richie,
Bijou Phillips, and Lindsay Lohan, Hilton had married her childhood friend and money
manager Meister at an impromptu 2:30 a.m. wedding.
The happy couple was so happy — that they had the marriage annulled within six weeks.
Having hella moved on with her trillionaire heir, we're betting Hilton said "boy-bye"
to Mister Todd Meister.
Wedding bells
"It's gonna be, relatively small."
Giving W Magazine the scoop on her couture bridal gown, Hilton said, "I think Valentino
is so elegant, so timeless.
I think a lot of brides today try and go a little too fashion-y or avant-garde.
And I really just wanted timeless, classic, beautiful."
While her dress bore a striking similarity to Kate Middleton's 2011 Alexander McQueen
wedding gown, it was a flattering tribute, as Hilton and Rothschild held their 2015 ceremony
at Kensington Palace, just like a pair of royals.
Paris, who served as Maid of Honor, shared with PEOPLE, "They're just perfect for each
other.
They're like a prince and princess.
I think it's important to find someone you trust and love [to] spend the rest of your
life [with].
I think that's the meaning of life: to get married and have a family."
"Are you ready?"
"For anything.
So long as it's with you."
Major family drama
Of course, it wasn't totally perfect.
There was one moment when her veil got run over by a Bentley.
Even still, Hilton's lavish palace wedding went off without a hitch when the day finally
arrived.
But before the big day in July 2015, there was major family drama brewing behind the
scenes.
"I always been close with all my nieces and nephews.
I was told that maybe it would be bad idea if I did come."
That confessional from Nicki's aunt Kyle Richards wasn't just reality TV fodder.
So what was going on?
There was younger brother Conrad's California court appearance regarding an arrest from
2014.
And Hilton's aunt, Kim Richards also missed the ceremony, because she was in rehab in
Malibu.
Even though aunt Kyle Richards did eventually attend the wedding, Richards' husband Mauricio
Umansky was noticeably absent, thanks to a business fallout between Umansky and Hilton's
father Rick.
But judging by that radiant glow on her big day, we've got a hunch the drama stayed home
for Hilton's glam destination wedding.
Hardcore philanthropist
Hilton says she and all of the Hilton grandkids are encouraged to take part in her great-grandfather
Conrad N. Hilton's Foundation, according to Genlux Magazine.
And the altruistic heiress packs her schedule with charitable galas and engagements throughout
the year.
She has supported Jessica Seinfeld's GOOD Foundation, Reach Act, and Animal Haven, as
well as her designer friends involved in the ethical and sustainable fashion movement.
This affluent girl's got a lot on her plate, but she's all about sharing.
Momma Nicky
In May 2015, Hilton mused in Avenue Magazine, "People say your life doesn't even begin until
you have children.
I'm so excited for the next chapter in my life, having children and starting a family.
There's nothing better than that."
"Wake up partner, it's time for birthing class."
"Yay."
Just two days before the couple's first wedding anniversary in July 2016, they welcomed daughter
Lily-Grace Victoria into their family.
With not much but a glimpse of Lily-Grace's tiny little feet on Instagram, and a stroller
sighting in NYC in July, Hilton and Rothschild have kept their daughter's life as private
as possible.
Aunt Paris gushed about her niece to Yahoo Celebrity, "I'm obsessed with her.
She's the most beautiful baby I've ever seen in my life.
I literally cry when I hold her because I'm so happy for my sister."
Never a party girl
Hilton admitted in Avenue Magazine, "Half of what you read about us wasn't true.
The things I would read about myself in these gossip columns growing up…
I once read I jumped onstage at some concert and was singing with the band.
I mean, can you imagine me doing that?
Anyone who knows me would know that wouldn't happen in a million years."
Back in 1996, the Hilton family moved from LA to New York City for Hilton's father's
business.
She told Vanity Fair, "I cried.
Everything was different.
When I was in LA in seventh grade we would just all sit home on a Friday night and watch
movies, and like, make up dances, and in New York there's, like, house parties and boys."
In The Daily News, the 33-year-old Hilton recalled, "That whole Hollywood scene, it
wasn't me."
Still a few tricks up her sleeves
"Someone wrote me on Twitter, what exactly do you do?
I have wrote a book.
I have come out with a cosmetics line.
I have a handbag line coming out.
I've done a clothing line.
I'm like what are you talking about?"
It might seem like Hilton's settled down these days, but that doesn't mean that's the last
we'll hear of her.
With a passion for fashion, and a penchant for Insta-glam, all signs point to Hilton's
wild success in design collaborations, now, and in the future.
She may become even more active in the social issues that matter to her most, as daughter
Lily-Grace grows up.
And who knows — perhaps another little Hilton-Rothschild will arrive on the scene.
Hilton's proven she can weather the storms of life in the public eye, with poise and
grace, fostering unbreakable relationships with those she loves most.
She's a deeply devoted wife, an adoring mother, a loyal sister, and a beloved daughter.
Whatever she decides to do next, she's sure to leave her signature mark.
