Sofia Richie’s surprise baby reveal leaves fans wondering how she kept it secret again

Sofia Richie has confirmed she is expecting her second child with husband Elliot Grainge, and social media is buzzing with reactions to the surprise reveal. The 27-year-old model shared the news on Instagram on 16 October 2025, posting a mirror selfie that showed off her baby bump with the caption, “On my way to launch these babies 👶🏼 + @srgatelier.”

Richie and Grainge, who married in a lavish ceremony in the South of France in April 2023, have quickly become one of Hollywood’s most admired young couples. Their romance, which began quietly before their engagement later that year, has often been described as a rare example of calm in the chaotic world of celebrity relationships.

In earlier interviews, Richie had spoken about how private she wanted her first pregnancy to remain, telling Vogue that she kept the news to herself to protect her mental health. Now, her latest reveal feels like the complete opposite, bold, public, and full of confidence.

Her friend and influencer Jake Shane told Page Six last year that Richie had adjusted to motherhood gracefully, calling her ‘an excellent mother’ who had managed to balance her career and family life with ease. With this new announcement, fans are once again praising her poise and excitement, while others can’t help but wonder if this was always part of her master plan, to turn another family milestone into the year’s most talked-about social-media moment.
