Richie’s adorable post garnered comments from numerous celebrities, including Kylie Jenner, Katy Perry and Joel Madden.

“Congratulations,” Jenner commented alongside a series of smiling face with heart emojis. Perry added, “Our QUEEN.” “The [star emoji] of the family,” wrote Good Charlotte’s Madden, who is married to Sofia’s sister, Nicole.

Richie announced her pregnancy during an interview and photo shoot with Vogue in late January. In the article, the model 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.

Richie and Grainge were married in the South of France in April 2023. 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.
