Lionel Richie’s daughter, Sofia Richie, has announced she’s pregnant with her second child with husband Elliot Grainge in a sweet update shared on social media
Sofia Richie announced she’s pregnant with her second child with a sweet snap of her growing baby bump on her Instagram page. The 27-year-old daughter of Lionel Richie and her husband, Elliot Grainge, with whom she tied the knot in 2023, share a one-year-old daughter named Eloise.
The influencer and model took to her page on Thursday to share a mirror selfie she took. She lifted up her patterned hoodie to show off her growing baby bump and captioned the simple announcement: “On my way to launch these babies (baby emoji) + @srgatelier,” tagging her brand new fashion brand.
Her close friends and fans rushed to congratulate her, but some questioned whether the caption meant she was having twins.

One user said: “babies? as in two?!!” and another questioned: “Wait.. TWINS?!” However, one fan clarified: “I think when she says babies she means 1 baby + her brand as the other “baby” — maybe. congratulations though!!”
Vanessa Hudgens wrote: “Yessss back to back babyyyyy,” and Kimora Lee Simmons added: “Yayy! Congrats beauty!”
Hours before her announcement, her husband shared his pride for her as he congratulated her on her brand. “I usually forget I even have Instagram, so I never really post.
“But today’s different… it’s the launch of my incredible wife Sofia’s fashion brand, SRG Atelier. I’ve watched you pour your heart into every detail with your amazing team, and I couldn’t be prouder of you, Sof. You inspire me everyday and I love you,” he said.
Sofia responded: “Wait Elliot. omg I love you so so much! You are my life.” Last year, Sofia opened up about a terrifying ordeal she endured during her pregnancy with Eloise Samantha Grange.
Speaking on She MD, hosted by none other than her OBGYN, Dr. Thais Aliabadi, and women’s rights champion Mary Alice Haney, Sofia reminisced about a morning when she woke up feeling utterly exhausted, plagued with cramps and backache.
The social media personality initially brushed it off as typical pregnancy woes but opted to touch base with her doctor just in case a decision she now considers a stroke of luck.
“She was like, “You know what? Actually, I think you should go see the fetal specialist to monitor, to make sure that everything’s okay, and then you’ll go home. It’s not a big deal,”‘ the style icon recounted.
“Thank God she said that, because they hooked me up to the monitor and they were like, ‘You’re in active labor,”‘at 32 weeks,’ she disclosed. Subsequently, Sofia found herself at Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles, where she underwent additional monitoring and received IV fluids.
What was supposed to be a brief hospital visit turned into a six-night ordeal, she divulged.
