Sofia Richie has a new boyfriend.
The daughter of Lionel Richie is dating music executive Elliot Grainge, “Entertainment Tonight” reported on Tuesday. Grainge is the son of Universal Music Group Chairman and CEO Lucian Grainge.
“They have been friends for years and Elliot is also close with Sofia’s brother, Miles,” a source told the outlet of Richie’s brother. “It’s very nice for Sofia to date someone who her family approves of and likes.”
The source added “Sofia and Elliot are happy together and having fun.”
Richie, 22, posted an Instagram photo with Grainge on March 26 and captioned it with just a sunflower emoji.
Richie and 27-year-old Grainge, whose 10K Projects produced Tekashi 6ix9ine’s albums, began dating after her brief romance with Matthew Morton.
Reps for Grainge and Richie didn’t immediately return Page Six’s request for comment.
Page Six exclusively revealed that Scott Disick, 37, and Richie broke up after nearly three years together over Disick’s struggles and his close relationship with ex Kourtney Kardashian, with whom he shares three children.
“Kourtney didn’t make it easy for her,” our source claimed, “and you can only tolerate that kind of treatment for so long.”
On a recent episode of “Keeping Up With the Kardashians,” the Talentless founder claimed Richie presented him with an ultimatum.
“Even when doing that, I feel like she just started wanting to like push Kourtney out and I said like, ‘That’s the most important thing to me, is my kids and that’s my family and the only family I have,’” he explained. “Including you guys along with it.”
He added, “And she was like, ‘I don’t want to share you as a boyfriend with Kourtney’ and then she literally said with an ultimatum, ‘You have to choose me or Kourtney.’”
Disick is now dating Amelia Hamlin.
