“Forever isn’t long enough,” Sofia wrote in the Instagram caption, tagging her new fiancé.
Another set of photos shared to her Instagram story shows the future Mr. and Mrs. stealing more kisses on the tiki torches and partying with friends.
Sofia, the daughter of hitmaker Lionel Richie, has been dating her 28-year-old boyfriend for a year.
Richie and her boyfriend – who is a music executive – were first spotted at each other’s company last year, and they officially took to Instagram in March.
Speaking to Entertainment Tonight at the time, a source explained that the happy couple had known each other for a long time before their romance began.

“They have been friends for years and Elliot is also very close to Sofia’s brother Miles. It’s very nice for Sofia to be dating someone her family approves and likes,” they said.
The insider also took care to add, “Sofia and Elliot are happy together and having fun.”
Richie publicly expressed her affection for Grainge with a post shared to her Instagram account last November.
In the shot, the social media personality could be seen preparing to place a loving kiss on her boyfriend’s lips.
The influencer also captioned her post with a short message that read, “You are everything to me. I love you, happy birthday babe.’
Previously, Sofia was in a high-profile relationship with reality TV personality Scott Disick, which she began dating in 2017. The two have an age difference of 16 years.

The couple stayed together for almost three years before calling it quits in May 2020.
The former couple reconciled in July, although they split one last time in August.
Scott’s other famous ex, Kourtney Kardashian, with whom she has three children, is also set to marry rocker Travis Barker.
Shortly after Sofia broke the news of her engagement, Scott took the opportunity to poke fun at himself as she is the second of his exes to get engaged in the last six months.
The Talentless founder compared himself to comedian Dane Cook’s character in the 2007 rom-com Good Luck Chuck in a post shared on Instagram.

“Just call me good luck Chuck in the 305,” commented the KUWTK star, who included a picture of himself on a luxury speedboat.
Good Luck Chuck follows Charlie Kagan (played by Cook), a man in his 30s who is unable to find true love due to a curse placed on him by a vengeful middle school girl.
The curse makes Chuck a “lucky charm” for single women, as every girl he slept with immediately afterwards met and married the man of their dreams.
And with two of his exes getting engaged in the last six months, it’s no wonder Scott recognizes a little bit of himself in Charlie Kagan.
However, Scott wasn’t the model’s only famous relationship. In 2016 she had an affair with Justin Bieber and before that she briefly dated Will Smith and Jada Pinkett’s son Jaden and recently married Brooklyn Beckham.
