“Wear shoes that keep your child entertained ✅,” Richie captioned the endearing snapshot.
The charming scene unfolded on a balcony with a scenic beach backdrop, where Eloise sat with her parents, delicately exploring the shiny studs on her mother’s designer footwear.
The little one might already be developing her mother’s fashion sense, as Richie recently launched her debut collection of baby clothing through Amazon, drawing inspiration from her daughter.
Richie and her husband, music producer Elliot Grainge, welcomed their daughter in May, marking their first venture into parenthood.
Speaking to Vogue in January while revealing her pregnancy, Richie shared her initial decision to maintain privacy. “Pregnancy is really scary,” she admitted at the time. “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.”

The couple’s journey began with their lavish French wedding in April 2023, attended by celebrities like Paris Hilton and Cameron Diaz. Their engagement came after Grainge proposed with an impressive emerald-cut diamond ring, following nearly two years of dating.
Recently, Sofia’s close friend Jake Shane offered insights into her transition to motherhood. “She is just so in love with her daughter and she’s such an excellent mother,” the TikTok personality exclusively revealed to Page Six.
Shane further praised Sofia’s ability to maintain a healthy balance between her maternal responsibilities, social commitments, and professional endeavors, describing her as “one of a kind” while noting that baby Eloise is “just perfect.”
