In April 2022, Sofia took to Instagram to announce her engagement to Grainge, sharing two heartfelt photos capturing the romantic moment. “Forever isn’t long enough @elliot,” she captioned the Instagram picture.
Grainge also posted a photo from the engagement, saying, “She said yes ❤️❤️❤️.”
After announcing their engagement, Sofia and Nicole’s father, Lionel Richie, who shares a close expressed his fondness for the then groom-to-be in an interview with Access Hollywood. Lionel, who has a close relationship with Grainge’s father and has collaborated with him frequently, shared, “I love Elliot. I’ve known him since he was 12 … It was one of those things where I don’t have to go back and check out the kid. I know who it is.”
Nicole has been happily married to her husband Madden since 2010. The couple has two children, a 15-year-old Harlow and a 13-year-old Sparrow.
