“Oh dear God. [I’m] “So excited,” 42-year-old Nicole gushed in an interview Extra when asked what she thinks about her little sister becoming a mother. “I can’t handle anything.”
Nicole – who shares daughter Harlow (16) and son Sparrow (14) with her husband, Joel Madden — even joked about celebrating Sofia’s entry into motherhood with some body ink. “What I should do is I should get a tattoo and say, ‘I’m the best aunt,’ and just get that, you know?” she joked.
Sofia, 25, announced earlier this year that she and Grainge, 30, are expecting their first child. “I found out very, very early,” she revealed in a January interview Fashion Interview. “I was about four weeks pregnant. I was on a trip to Milan for Fashion Week and went to the Prada show. I had a really quick 24 hour edit and felt terrible but didn’t think much of it. I thought it was jet lag.”
Sofia Richie Grainge and her husband Elliot Grainge were preparing to become parents for the first time less than a year after their wedding. Richie Grainge announced in January 2024 that the couple, who tied the knot in April 2023, were expecting their first child. In an interview with Vogue, the model said she found out about her pregnancy […]
After a pregnancy test came back positive, Sofia said her husband was “so excited” and they were “both crying.” She continued, “It was crazy and overwhelming and so hard not to shout it from the rooftops.”
Later that month, the couple, who married in April 2023, announced they were expecting a baby girl. “Sorry to all my neighbors for the horrible scream 😅,” Sofia captioned a TikTok video of her loud reaction to her and Grainge’s sex revelation.
Nicole isn’t the only member of Sofia’s famous family to share their joy over the baby news. A source exclusively tells Us weekly in January that her father, Lionel RichieHe was “absolutely thrilled for Sofia and Elliot,” adding, “He was ecstatic when they told him and the family they were expecting their first child.”
The insider continued: “Sofia is Lionel’s youngest and it was such a bittersweet moment for him when he realized his little girl was all grown up and was going to be a mother. “He couldn’t hold back the tears.” (Lionel and his ex -Woman Brenda Harvey adopted Nicole as a toddler in 1981. He shares Sofia and his son Miles, 29, with his ex-wife Diane Alexander.)
After her high-profile relationship with Scott Disick, Sofia Richie is taking a more reserved approach to her romance with Elliot Grainge. Richie and Disick – who have a 15-year age gap – began dating in 2017, following his split from Kourtney Kardashian. The model and Disick briefly separated in March 2020 before getting together […]
Lionel, 74, later revealed he doesn’t plan for Sofia’s child to call him grandpa. “I’m Pop-Pop,” he said Entertainment tonight in January. “We don’t understand ‘Grandpa.'” Yes, that’s a bit profound. Pop-Pop is our goal.”
Earlier this month, another source shared Us that Sofia and Grainge are planning a “babymoon trip” before welcoming their baby girl. “[They are] “I’m so excited and excited to see her and be here,” the insider added. “Elliot is already here [Sofia] and really supported her on this journey. He is very hands-on and always makes sure she has what she needs, takes her to appointments and loves driving her around.”
