Sofia Richie and Elliot Grainge are thinking pink.
The couple announced they're expecting their first baby together, sharing that they're having a little girl.
"She's growing pretty fast," Sofia told Vogue in an interview published Jan. 25, "so [the due date] is a bit up in the air."
As for how the 25-year-old's pregnancy journey has been so far?
"I've learned more in the past six months than I have in my entire life," Sofia explained. "And also just like what the female body is capable of. Every week brings new things, whether it's hormonal shifts or expansion—there's just so much our bodies go through, and it's so interesting to experience it all."
The news comes less than a year after she and the music executive, 30, tied the knot in April 2023 during a stunning and star-filled ceremony in the South of France. In fact, she admitted she's been eager to start a family since their nuptials, noting that her husband "didn't really flinch when I said I was checking" as she'd occasionally taken pregnancy tests over the last few months.
And now, the couple—who were friends since childhood before they began dating in 2021— are embarking on a new journey together.
"Pregnancy is really scary and you want to protect that space," she noted. "I didn't realize there are so many milestones you have to hit and so many tests you have to take. For me, it was really important to protect our mental health and our space as a couple."
Sofia—whose dad is Lionel Richie and mom is Diane Alexander—further reacted to her news on social media, sharing a pair of maternity photos.
"Our hearts are filled with so much love!," the model wrote in a Jan. 25 Instagram post. "So thankful for all of your support! Can't wait for this next chapter of life."

Sofia Richie sparked dating rumors with music executive Elliot Grainge in the spring of 2021, nearly a year after her breakup from Scott Disick.
Though the pair's history went way back—as Elliot's dad, Universal Music Group CEO Lucian Grainge, is a longtime friend of Sofia's father Lionel Richie—romance speculation started swirling when they were seen out on a date.
The model confirmed her relationship with Elliot in April 2021, posting this PDA photo on Instagram.
Shortly Sofia went public with the romance, a source told E! News that Lionel gave his seal of approval.
"He thinks they are a perfect match and it was very natural progression for Sofia and Elliot to get together," the insider said in April 2021. "They are all family friends and Sofia and Elliot [started] hanging out more recently this year."
Elliot popped the question in early 2022 during a Hawaiian vacation with friends and family.
"Sofia truly had no idea," another source told E! News at the time. "She thought they were just going on a fun vacation. Sofia's reaction was epic, she was so surprised and taken back."
In May 2022, the couple celebrated their engagement with their inner circle—including Sofia's sister Nicole Richie and brother-in-law Joel Madden—at a backyard bash.
Sofia and Elliot tied the knot on April 22, 2023 at Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in the South of France.
The newlyweds jetted off for their tropical honeymoon shortly after the lavish nuptials.
Sofia announced her pregnancy in January 2024, telling Vogue, "I've learned more in the past six months than I have in my entire life. And also just like what the female body is capable of."
The influencer continued, "Every week brings new things, whether it's hormonal shifts or expansion—there's just so much our bodies go through, and it's so interesting to experience it all."
