Sofia Richie Grainge welcomed her second baby, a boy named Henry Cecil Grainge, on March 18.
Sofia Richie Grainge — the 27-year-old daughter of Lionel Richie and wife of Universal Music Group chairman Lucian Grainge — announced on March 25 through an Instagram post that their second child had arrived on March 18: a boy named Henry Cecil Grainge, their second baby after daughter Eloise.
The announcement's specific detail — the Instagram photo featuring a newborn alongside their daughter Eloise, posted seven days after the birth — reflects Richie Grainge's approach to celebrity motherhood that has been consistent since her first pregnancy: selective sharing, delayed announcement after private time with the new family member, and the specific quality of maternity presentation that balances social media presence with genuine family privacy.
For the context of how quickly the Grainge family has grown: Sofia and Lucian Grainge married in April 2023 — a wedding whose specific spectacular quality (French Riviera, Olivier Rousteing Balmain couture, celebrity guest list) made it one of the most covered ceremonies of that year — and have since welcomed two children in approximately 18 months. Eloise was born in 2025 and Henry in March 2026.
For the Lionel Richie dimension: Sofia's father is among the most recognisable names in popular music across the past four decades, and his specific pride in his daughter's family life has been visible in the warm family documentation that both he and Sofia have shared publicly. The 'Girl is Mine' singer becoming a grandfather to two grandchildren in quick succession is a specific life milestone whose warmth needs no celebrity context to be appreciated.
For Sofia Richie Grainge's own public profile: she built a significant social media following and career as a model and influencer before her marriage, and has maintained that presence through her transition to motherhood with the specific quality of authenticity that audiences respond to when it feels genuine rather than managed.
