Grainge, the son of Universal Music Group Chairman and CEO Lucian Grainge, shared the news on his Instagram page next to another photo of him and Richie smooching.

"She said yes," he wrote in his caption, adding three heart emoji.

Richie responded in the comments, "I love you."

Richie's Hollywood pals congratulated the couple on their happy news.

Richie's sister, actor and designer Nicole Richie, shared a pic of the couple's proposal in her Instagram story along with a second image showing her and her sister posing together. "Can't wait to find ways to make this about me," joked the former "Great News" star.

Nicole Richie's husband, Good Charlotte rocker Joel Madden, congratulated Sofia Richie in the comments of her announcement post.

"My heart is full," the musician wrote alongside several red heart emoji.

And Nicole Richie's former "The Simple Life" co-star Paris Hilton cheered for the couple as well, writing, "Congratulations, sis!! So happy for you two! Love you!"

Sofia Richie went Instagram official with Grainge in April 2021 when she shared a gallery of photos that included one of the couple being affectionate.

Prior to dating Grainge, Sofia Richie was in a relationship for several years with former "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star Scott Disick.

It's official, Sofia Richie is engaged to her partner, Elliot Grainge.

The pair made their relationship Instagram official when sharing a PDA-filled pic back in April 2021, three months after they were first spotted together in Beverly Hills.

One year later, the 23-year-old model announced that she was officially engaged to Elliot following an incredibly sweet proposal. Before Elliot, Sofia was notably dating Scott Disick for three years, before the pair officially broke up in 2020.

"Forever isn't long enough @elliot," Sofia wrote on an Instagram post of a photo that shows Elliot proposing and another of Sofia showing off her gorgeous diamond ring. While Elliot captioned his Instagram announcement of the happy news, "She said yes".

Naturally, Hollywood's A-list flooded to the post to share their congratulations and well wishes.

"So happy for you sis!," Paris Hilton wrote in a comment, along with Bella Hadid who simply wrote: 'Omg!!!!!'

But thanks to their impending walk down the aisle, the world has become perplexed, wondering exactly who her new fiancé is.

So, we've taken a deep dive to find everything you might like to know about Elliot Grainge and his relationship with Sofia Richie.

Elliot Has Roots In The Music Business

Ever since his childhood, Elliot has had roots in the music industry. And not just for the love of it, but because his father is Lucian Grainge, the Chairman and CEO of Universal Music Group.

Throughout his decades-long career, Lucian has worked alongside an impressive lineup of musical artists, like Elton John, The Rolling Stones, Amy Winehouse, Rihanna and Katy Perry.

But also with his endless accolades, Elliot's father has been named as Billboard's first-ever Executive of the Decade and has even scored himself a star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame. And as the cherry on top, he was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II back in 2016.

He Grew Up In The United Kingdom

For Elliot, the son of music royalty was actually born and raised outside of the United States. Much like his father, Elliot grew up over in the United Kingdom, where he clearly became immersed in his father's passion for music. From there, he moved to and currently resides in the United States, which worked out well for him as it's where he met his future wife.

"I was a weird kid who used to read the music trades," Elliot told Variety back in 2019.

"What I noticed about my father's negotiating style was how transparent, honest and sensible he was. When you put your cards on the table like that, negotiating is less competitive and more about teamwork."

As for when he moved to the United States, it seems like he did so after high school, as he attended Northwestern University in Boston, where he earned a Bachelor's Degree.

He Has His Own Record Label

Once he graduated from college on the country's East coast, Elliot moved to Los Angeles where he began working on his own record label, called 10K Projects. As for what talent he's signed, his roster includes the likes of Trippie Redd and the controversial Tekashi 6ix9ine, according to Forbes.

Since it was created, the label has earned itself 18 gold and 8 platinum and multi platinum singles, with Elliot earning a spot on Forbes' notable '30 under 30' list, back in 2020.

He Keeps His Life Very Private, But Has Confessed He Loves Eminem

While his fiancé is a popular presence on social media, Elliot prefers to keep his private life (and any form of life) off of the internet. As of writing, the music executive only has three posts on his Instagram, two of which include Sofia, and has no tweets on his Twitter account.

Given the nature of his job, his musical taste needs diversity. But as for which artist he has an admiration and devotion to, it's Eminem.

"I was obsessed, thought he was the coolest thing in the world," he told Variety in 2019.

"If you look at the streaming data and analytics over the past six years, you'll see anyone under 28 around the world has been raised on hip-hop. It's a lifestyle, a culture, as rock once was for another generation. And I believe it was Eminem who took it to the next step in terms of global reach."

As for any details about his upcoming nuptials to Sofia, the pair are remaining tight-lipped. Either way, these two certainly make an impressive couple.

Sofia Richie and Elliot Grainge are engaged, the model announced via Instagram on Wednesday.

“Forever isn’t long enough @elliot,” the bride-to-be captioned photos of Grainge down on one knee at the Four Seasons Hualalai.

In the pics, the two were surrounded by white flowers and candles that were provided by Uhi Uhi Flower House on Kona island. A second photo was a close-up of them kissing with a focus on the diamond rock he gave her.

Friends and family of Richie, 23, and Grainge, 28, quickly filled the comments with their congratulations.

“Omgggg congratulations babe!!!! 🤍,” Lori Harvey wrote.

“What!!!!!! Wow!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️,” reacted Simon Huck.

Newlywed Nicola Peltz also added a series of red-heart emojis.

Richie’s sister Nicole shared a photo of her and Sofia posing together on her Instagram Story and joked, “Can’t wait to find ways to make this about me.”

Page Six reported in April 2021 that the daughter of legendary musician Lionel Richie was dating the music executive. (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 Entertainment Tonight of Richie’s brother. “It’s very nice for Sofia to date someone who her family approves of and likes.”

The relationship came after Richie’s brief romance with Matthew Morton, the son of famed restaurateur Peter Morton, and a nearly three-year relationship with Scott Disick, 38.
