Sofia Richie & Music Exec Elliot Grainge Expecting First Baby
Written by djfrosty on January 25, 2024
Sofia Richie announced Thursday (Jan. 25) that she’s expecting her first baby with her husband, music executive Elliot Grainge.
The news came through an interview and photo shoot with Vogue, in which the model/social media personality revealed she’s pregnant with a baby girl.
“Congratulations are in order for @sofiarichiegrainge!” reads a caption on the magazine’s Instagram account, alongside four photos of Richie proudly displaying her baby bump and one pic of the soon-to-be parents together.
In the article, Richie revealed that she took a pregnancy test before attending an Ed Sheeran concert with Grainge because “I kind of knew it was going to be a boozy night, and I was a few days late on my period, and I wanted to be generally safe.” She sent her husband to the drug store to buy three more tests to confirm after the first one came back positive.
They told all the grandparents-to-be — Richie is the daughter of Grammy-winning superstar Lionel Richie, while Grainge is the son of Universal Music Group chairman/CEO Lucian Grainge — by putting the positive tests in an Hermes box and presenting them as a “gift from Milan Fashion Week.”
“Everyone was like ‘Ooooh Hermes!’ But then they opened it and it had all three of the pregnancy tests [in it]. That’s how we told all of our parents. Watching their reaction go from like, ‘I’m about to get an expensive present’ to like ‘I’m about to get a grandchild’ was really sweet.”
Richie and Grainge were married last April in the South of France. The pair made their relationship Instagram official in April 2021 and have kept their love relatively private. Elliot Grainge is the founder and CEO of independent record label 10K Projects.
