Sofia Richie Opens Up About “Challenging” Labor Experience and Postpartum Recovery
Following that advice, she visited the hospital where she was informed that she was in active labor at 32 weeks.
“I was really scared,” Sofia—Lionel Richie’s youngest child, whom he had with ex Diane Alexander—said about the doctor’s news. “Thank goodness she mentioned it, because once they connected me to the monitor, they confirmed that I was in active labor.”
Originally expecting just a brief stay, Sofia ended up spending six nights in the hospital under observation.
After being discharged and prescribed bed rest, she remained in active labor for six weeks before being induced at 38 weeks.
Reflecting on the delivery of Eloise, Sofia remarked, “I had a wonderful delivery.”
