Sofia Richie shows off 'blissful' baby bump at nine months as she awaits arrival of baby girl
Sofia Richie is embracing the final stretch of her pregnancy journey in style as she awaits the arrival of her baby girl.
The 25 year old model showcased her blossoming baby bump in a heartwarming Instagram post, looking effortlessly chic. In the snap, Sofia is pictured wearing a white vest top that stretches over her growing bump, paired with cream knit trousers and a crisp white shirt.
Over the photo, she tenderly writes, "waiting on you baby girl" adding a heart emoji.
Adding to the excitement, Sofia recently shared a glimpse into her simple, "down to earth" gender reveal celebration with husband Elliot Grainge on TikTok.
Opting for an intimate backyard affair over a flashy event, the couple stood side by side as they joyously unveiled the gender of their baby.
Dressed in beige joggers and a grey sweatshirt, Sofia stood by the pool with their pet dog while Elliot prepared to set off the confetti cannon. With a quick countdown, pink confetti and smoke filled the air, sparking screams of joy and celebrations from the expectant parents.
As Sofia sprinted around the backyard in sheer excitement, leaving her dog - and Elliot - bewildered, fans couldn't help but adore the genuine and intimate moment shared between the couple.
"I love how they did this together without anyone else!" one said, and another liked: "Love the simplicity and how intimate this gender reveal is."
"The cutest gender reveal ever," someone else wrote. "Love how down to earth they are," another said, while a TikTok user added: "Such a genuine and intimate gender reveal. Thank you for letting us be a part of it."
People were also delighted about Sofia having a girl, with one fan saying: "This is so beautiful and pure. Congratulations excited to see the mini sofia richie."
Sofia, who is the daughter of singing superstar Lionel Richie, expressed her and Elliot's excitement about welcoming their first baby later this year as they announced their baby news.
She wrote: "Our hearts are filled with so much love! So thankful for all of your support! Can't wait for this next chapter of life."
Announcing the news alongside British Vogue, the publication shared a photoshoot of Sofia showing off her growing baby bump.
She told the outlet: "I found out very, very early. [Elliot] is such a sweet guy, he always wants to protect my emotions and expectations, so he kind of sat me down and said, ‘If these are negative, don’t be upset.
"Our moment will come.’ When we turned over all three tests at the same time, they were all positive."
Sofia also told Vogue: "We both really thought it was a boy, so it was a true shock. My dream in life is to have a daughter [though], and Elliot is really excited for a girl too."
