The model and social media personality, who is the youngest daughter of the legendary singer Lionel Richie, welcomed a baby girl with Grainge on Monday, May 20.
In a heartwarming Instagram post shared recently on Instagram, the couple announced the birth of their daughter, Eloise Samantha Grainge.
The black-and-white photograph, which has since melted hearts across the internet, captures Richie and Grainge holding their newborn daughter’s tiny feet.
Richie, 25, poignantly captioned the photo, “Eloise Samantha Grainge 52024 best day of my life.” Grainge, 30, echoed her sentiments in the comments, adding, “Now it really is a family of three.”

The couple’s journey to parenthood began with an exciting revelation earlier this year.
Richie announced her pregnancy in an interview and photoshoot with Vogue in late January.
She shared that she took a pregnancy test just before attending an Ed Sheeran concert with Grainge, suspecting she might be pregnant, as per Billboard.
Her intuition was right, and after sending Grainge to the drugstore for three more tests to confirm the first positive result, the couple’s excitement grew.
Sofia Richie and Elliot Grainge have been together since making their relationship Instagram official in April 2021.
They tied the knot in a stunning ceremony in the South of France in April 2023. Despite their public profiles, they have maintained a relatively private relationship.
Grainge, the son of Universal Music Group chairman/CEO Lucian Grainge, is also a prominent figure in the music industry as the founder and CEO of the independent record label 10K Projects.
With the arrival of Eloise Samantha Grainge, the couple’s world has been transformed. As Richie herself expressed, it truly was the “best day” of her life.
