I read that Nicole's biological father is Peter Escovedo. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't he Sheila E's brother?

That's correct.Peter Escovedo (Sheila's brother) is the biological father of Nicole Richie.This means that Sheila is Nicole's aunt.

I heard that she was her godmother, not her aunt. Is Pete Escovedo really her dad?

Yeah Pete is her real father he let Lionel Richie & His wife at the time adopt her when she was like 3 or 4 years old...She mention this on Oprah awhile back.

You can see Nicole's resemblance to Sheila in her eyes.

Yes apperently Nicole was being passed on from person to personl until she was like 6, at around that time lionel and his wife adopted her, she was being interviewed about it recently and she basically said that she knew all alone she was adopted and that she knew who her real parent were all along and kept in touch with them all her life.
