Nicole Richie is over the moon as she welcomes her new niece into the world. The star’s sister, Sofia Richie, joyfully announced the arrival of her first baby with husband Elliot Grainge on Friday, May 24. After the exciting news, Nicole expressed her happiness by leaving a comment on Sofia’s social media post revealing her daughter’s birth.
“I now have a new favorite EG. sorry Elliot,” Nicole, 42, playfully wrote, referring to her niece Eloise Grainge’s initials. Even Nicole’s husband, Joel Madden, joined in on the celebration by commenting, “❤️❤️❤️The ⭐️ of the family❤️❤️❤️.”
Sofia, 25, shared the heartfelt announcement of Eloise’s birth on Instagram, captioning a black-and-white photo of the baby’s feet in her hands with, “Eloise Samantha Grainge 🤍5•20•24 best day of my life🤍.”
The model had confirmed her pregnancy earlier this year in an interview with Vogue, where she mentioned that the due date was somewhat uncertain due to the baby’s rapid growth. Sofia’s journey to motherhood has been highly anticipated, and her family, including sister Nicole, is thrilled about this new addition.
Nicole, in a recent interview, expressed her excitement about Sofia becoming a mother and reminisced about raising her own children while on tour with Madden when he was performing with Good Charlotte. Now, as Sofia embarks on her own motherhood journey, Nicole is eager to offer any support and guidance needed.
The Richie family’s happiness knows no bounds as they welcome the newest member, Eloise, with open arms. Cheers to the growing Richie family and the joy that comes with new beginnings!
