Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie first starred together on 'The Simple Life,' which ran for five seasons from 2003 to 2007.
Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie, the dynamic duo behind the iconic reality TV show, The Simple Life, are set to make a comeback on the small screen.
After nearly 17 years since the conclusion of their hit series, the two best friends announced their reunion in a nostalgic Instagram post on Monday.
Hilton and Richie teased their upcoming project with the Instagram caption, "New Era. Same Besties. 👯♀️ Coming soon to Peacock." Despite the static on a TV screen in the clip they shared, fans could hear the familiar voices of Hilton and Richie uttering their famous catchphrase, "Sanasa," from their days on The Simple Life.
Details of the series have not yet been revealed, but the new show will reportedly not be an exact duplicate of The Simple Life, though it will star the pair together, TMZ reports.
Speculation regarding a potential reunion first sparked on Wednesday, when Richie, 42, shared a collage of photos of herself and Hilton, 43, from different points in their life dating all the way back to childhood.
"From Day 1: Sill and Bill" Richie captioned the post. In the comments, Hilton remarked, "Sanasaaaa 💖💖💖."
The Simple Life -- which ran for five seasons from 2003 to 2007 -- followed Hilton and Richie as they tried to do different jobs, including working on a farm, as waitresses, and various other tasks that they were unfamiliar with.
The show hit a speedbump when the pair had a falling out in 2005, which led to it being canceled by Fox. However, it was picked up by E! where it aired for two more seasons.
Richie previously expressed her deep connection with Hilton on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen in 2014, stating, "Paris is somebody that's been in my life since day one. An idea of a true friend is somebody that's going to be there for you through and through."
Despite not having spoken in a while, Richie emphasized their strong friendship, stating, "I haven't spoken to [Paris] in a while, but we are very good friends, and I love her and love her family, and have a lot of respect for her."
Their lives have both changed dramatically since their time on The Simple Life. Richie and Hilton are both now married -- to Joel Madden and Carter Reum respectively -- and are mothers.
Hilton and Reum share two kids -- 1-year-old son Phoenix and 5-month-old daughter London -- while Richie and Madden share 16-year-old daughter Harlow and 14-year-old son Sparrow.
