Sofia Richie isn’t here for the drama! The 26-year-old media personality has finally broken her silence on those viral rumors that her husband, record executive Elliot Grainge, 31, cheated on her.
The mom-of-one took to TikTok to address the wild claims making the rounds online. In a playful video that instantly went viral, Sofia and Elliot, fresh from a sweet family outing with their baby daughter Eloise, were seen casually reading some of the juiciest (and most absurd) comments from the gossip mill.
How It All Went Down
The clip showed the couple chilling on their bed, with Elliot reading aloud a few choice accusations from a separate TikTok video that alleged he had an affair. “Get that coin, sis,” Elliot read with a smirk, earning a giggle from Sofia. The trolling didn’t stop there. He continued: “Why wouldn’t she want to be single again?” and “They got married?”
Sofia cracked up again while Elliot, ever the good sport, quipped: “Don’t do that, Soph.”
Then came another zinger: “She already secured the baby. Sofia has a rich dad as well, she should divorce him and take his child support money.”
As if things couldn’t get more ridiculous, Elliot read a final one:
“That? Cheating on her?” Both Sofia and Elliot agreed it was “mean” before Elliot, tongue firmly in cheek, asked: “What am I? Shrek?”
Sofia captioned the TikTok: “I had to break it to my husband that he’s not the people’s princess.”
Fans Are Here For It
Predictably, the internet loved every second of it. Support for the couple poured in across the comments section: “NOW this is how we should be clearing up rumors every single time. I love this,” one person wrote, while another added, “Real ones love Elliot and know he treats you like a queen.”

A Love Story That Keeps Winning Hearts
For those who haven’t been keeping up with Sofia and Elliot’s love story, the couple started dating in 2021. If Elliot’s name rings a bell, it’s because he’s the son of Universal Music Group CEO Lucian Grainge.

Sofia, who’s now racked up nearly 4 million TikTok followers and 11 million on Instagram, shared in an interview with L’Officiel that the response surprised her: “My happiness doesn’t depend on social media feedback… but it was shocking for me to see such positive feedback.”
Even when reflecting on her now-iconic wedding content, Sofia has kept things refreshingly down-to-earth. “The content that I created around my wedding was organic… I was just being myself and letting people live through it with me in real time,” she said.

Moving On Like a Pro
Shortly after shutting down the cheating allegations with humor and grace, Sofia was back on Instagram doing what she does best: being effortlessly chic and living her best life.
So, to the haters and rumor-mongers, consider yourselves dismissed.
