Sofia Richie debuts dramatic new hairstyle just days after addressing cheating rumors
Sofia Richie unveiled a bold new look on Saturday, appearing unbothered as she moves on from the recent storm of cheating allegations involving husband Elliot Grainge.
The 26-year-old daughter of Lionel Richie had just broken her silence on rumors that Elliot, 31, cheated on her f ollowing the birth of their daughter, Eloise, now one.
Sofia addressed the claims in a TikTok video where she and Elliot read through a series of nasty comments from a post accusing him of having an affair.
She filmed Elliot reacting to the 'mean' remarks while she laughed them off—making it clear she's standing by her man.
The couple doubled down on their united front by recently jetting back to the South of France, the site of their lavish 2023 wedding.
Now, Sofia's showing off a whole new vibe on Instagram, debuting a dramatic transformation with a chic, ultra-short haircut that nearly erases her signature long locks.

Looking stunning in a black top and striped skirt, the style star posed confidently with her fresh cut—captioning the snaps simply: 'French Bob.'
Sofia posted the album days after the TikTok video in which she and Elliot shrugged off the swirling rumors about the state of their marriage.
'Get that coin, sis,' Elliot read out loud, prompting Sofia to let out a small laugh. He then continued with, 'Why wouldn't she want to be single again?' and 'They got married?'
Another was, 'She already secured the baby. Sofia has a rich dad as well, she should divorce him and take his child support money.'
As Richie laughed once again while her husband read the comment, Grainge quietly added to his wife, 'Don't do that Soph.'
Elliot then read another and said, 'That? Cheating on her?' - causing them both to agree the comment was 'mean.'
Sofia panned the camera back to her and after a few moments passed, her husband questioned, 'What am I? Shrek?'
In the caption of the post, the daughter of Lionel Richie penned to her followers: 'I had to break it to my husband that he's not the peoples princess.'
Social media users jumped to the comment section on the star's TikTok to offer their support to the couple.
One penned, 'Best way to silence haters,' while another typed, 'Changing my dating app bio to "looking for an Elliot Grainge."'
'People honestly forgot how hurtful the things they say can be. That's terrible, poor dude,' a fan wrote.
One shared, 'NOW this is a way that we should be clearing up rumors every single time. I love this,' and another added, 'Never doubted this man! He loves her, people are weird.'
'Real ones love Elliot and know he treats you like a queen,' one TikTok user penned, which also garnered a like from Sofia.
She also uploaded a picture of herself cradling little Eloise as they both stared out an open window to gaze at the dazzling ocean view

Richie - who shares daughter Eloise, one, with Grainge - filmed herself listening to him as he listed some of the 'mean' comments as he laid next to her on a bed
Sofia panned the camera back to her and after a few moments passed, her husband questioned, 'What am I? Shrek?'
A fan commented, 'What a way to respond,' while one added, 'Ugh please let this type of love attack me.'
Back in 2021, it was confirmed that Sofia was dating Elliot - who is the son of CEO of Universal Music Group Lucian Grainge.
The following year, he popped the big question during a romantic proposal during a getaway to Hawaii.
In April 2023, Sofia walked down the aisle and the couple said 'I do' during a ceremony that took place in the south of France.
The nuptials went viral on social media when the beauty launched her TikTok only days before the big day - and drew massive attention for its 'quiet luxury.'
During an interview with L'Officiel, the star opened up about the following she garnered not long after joining TikTok. She currently boasts nearly 4 million followers on TikTok, and 11 million on Instagram.
'I've never expected to get any positive feedback from social media,' she told the outlet.
'My happiness doesn't depend on social media feedback, and I feel like I protected my mental health in that way throughout the years of being in the spotlight.'
Sofia added, 'It was shocking for me to see such positive feedback, and it really put a smile on my face. It made me feel like, "Wow, there are kind people out there."'
When it comes to using her social media accounts - especially TikTok - the star explained, 'I truly try to stay true to myself and my brand, and I honestly use TikTok like I'm talking to my friends. I'm just having fun.
'I don't want people to feel like I'm leading them to buy everything under the moon because I'm getting paid.'
And while talking to Who What Wear in 2023, she reflected on launching her TikTok page to document the days leading up to her wedding.
'My friends were like, "How cool would it be if you started a TikTok and showed people in real time what was happening?" I thought, "You know what? That's so refreshing, and that's a great idea."'
Sofia then jokingly revealed, 'I actually feel like a grandma on TikTok. Fun fact: I don't even know how to edit a video.'
The star later expressed, 'The content that I created around my wedding was organic, and I wasn't pushing anything or hiding anything waiting for a magazine to publish. I was just being myself and letting people live through it with me in real time.'
Sofia has been keeping busy and recently jumped to Instagram shortly after addressing the cheating allegations.
Both she and Elliot recently enjoyed a getaway to the French Riviera to attend a wedding.
Richie uploaded a series of snaps, including one where she and her husband were dressed to the nines and shared a loving kiss underneath the warm sunshine.
The star wore a sleeveless, vibrant blue gown that was held up with halter-styled straps and Grainge sported a classic black tuxedo.
Their baby girl Eloise - who celebrated her first birthday last month in May - also joined her parents for the trip.
Sofia shared additional pictures that were taken over Father's Day weekend as they spent time at the Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc, where both she and Elliot tied the knot two years earlier.

Her oldest was having a fanboy moment with the YouTuber Marlon LuGu, when he name dropped his mom. 'You know Star Wars? Padme Amidala?' the teen asked the 23-year-old Swedish social media star, whose full name is Marlon Lundgren Garcia. 'Well, that's my mom.' he revealed, asking: 'Can you give a shoutout to my mom?' The verify his claim, Aleph shared some family photos from his phone. 'That's your mom?!' Marlon asked in disbelief to which the middle schooler replied, 'Yeah, that's my mom.' The streamer quickly took the opportunity to say 'hi' to the Black Swan star. After Aleph called his mother, the actress' face popped up on the screen and he said, 'Mom, do you want to say hi to Marlon?' He then handed to the phone to the social media star, who said: 'Hi, I'm sorry for disturbing you, I just want to say hi real quick.' 'Nice to meet you,' she said. 'Nice to meet you,' Marlon replied.

Coco Gauff and Aryna Sabalenka perform TikTok dance routine on Wimbledon's Centre Court as top seeds show there are no hard feelings after fall-out from French Open final
There was no sign of any lingering tension between Coco Gauff and Aryna Sabalenka as the two top seeds danced together on Wimbledon 's Centre Court in a light-hearted TikTok routine ahead of this year's Championships. Three weeks after Gauff beat Sabalenka in the French Open final, the pair took to the hallowed grass on Friday for a relaxed practice session that ended with them grooving to C+C Music Factory's Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now). Sabalenka, the No 1 seed in the women's singles at SW19, posted the clip to Instagram, writing: 'TikTok dances always had a way of bringing people together.' Gauff, who is seeded second, also shared a video of the pair lip-syncing outside Centre Court, captioning it: 'OK guys, we're back. Did you miss us? Cause we missed you.' She added a message to fans to confirm the hatchet had been buried, stating: 'The olive branch was extended and accepted! We're good so you guys should be too.' Their playful display comes after a frostier exchange following the Roland Garros final on June 7, when Sabalenka was criticised for saying Gauff won 'not because she played incredible; just because I made all of those mistakes from… easy balls.' Gauff responded at the time by saying she didn't feel the remarks were fair, noting: 'The way Aryna was playing the last few weeks, she was the favourite to win… I think I got the hardest matchup just if you go off stats alone.' View this post on Instagram A post shared by Aryna Sabalenka (@arynasabalenka) Sabalenka later admitted her post-match comments were 'unprofessional' and revealed she had reached out to apologise privately. 'I absolutely regret what I said back then. We all make mistakes. I'm just a human being who's still learning in life,' she said. 'I think we all have those days when we lose control. The difference with me is the world is watching.' Any doubt over the state of their relationship appears to have been erased, with the TikTok videos showing smiles, laughter and synchronised dance moves from two of the biggest stars in women's tennis. Sabalenka opened her Wimbledon campaign with a 6-1, 7-5 win over Canada's Carson Branstine on Court 1 on Monday. Gauff will begin her tournament on Tuesday on Centre Court against Ukraine's Dayana Yastremska. Due to their seedings, the earliest Gauff and Sabalenka can face each other at Wimbledon is in the final on July 12 — and Sabalenka has hinted that if she wins, she is ready to celebrate in style. 'If I win the title, of course I'm going to do the dance,' she told Mail Sport last week. 'But it would be more like a TikTok dance — the first one, we're going to create a new tradition!' Sabalenka, who has a tiger tattoo on her left forearm as a reminder to 'fight like a tiger', admitted she has had to learn to manage her fiery on-court persona, saying: 'When I first came on tour, everyone was teaching me to be quiet, not show your emotions… But I found it is much easier when I let those negative emotions go — scream at my team, let it out.' She added: 'Sometimes I go too much in these negative emotions, which is also not right. So we have to balance it.' The Belarusian star has unfinished business at Wimbledon, having reached the semi-finals in 2021 and 2023. She withdraw from last year's tournament due to an shoulder injury, having also missed the 2022 Championships because of the ban on Russian and Belarusian players following the invasion of Ukraine. 'Now I'm here at Wimbledon I feel like I'm a different person. I'm super excited to compete — you appreciate that opportunity much more when it has been taken away,' she said.

Inside Liam and Noel Gallagher's most vicious fight with ‘proper punches' as Oasis fans pray new peace will last 41 gigs
THE Gallagher brothers have had more fights than hit records. And with their long-awaited Oasis reunion kicking off this weekend, fans and tour promoters are praying the pair can manage 41 gigs without yet another epic fallout. 9 It is nearly 16 years since the nastiest of all their altercations signalled the end of the band, which had sold more than 50million records, released eight UK No1 albums and played two record-breaking shows at Knebworth. Noel and Liam had reached a point where they only saw each other on stage. They didn't even travel together. At the planned penultimate show of their 2009 world tour in Paris, Noel didn't even make it through the curtains after a pre-show brawl. Liam had smashed one of his prized guitars, and Noel walked out on the band. An onlooker said: 'Liam was goading Noel constantly and then the two just snapped. 'There were proper punches and Liam smashed one of Noel's guitars. Liam was like a man possessed. 'Medical staff were called, along with security. This was a truly vicious fight — quite horrible.' 'F***k it, I can't do it any more' Soon after, Noel released a statement on the band's official website announcing he was leaving with 'some sadness and great relief'. He added: 'I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer.' Later, he wrote: 'The level of verbal and violent intimidation towards me, my family, friends and comrades has become intolerable.' Liam Gallagher reveals new details about Oasis tour – before quickly deleting post Noel, 58, went into more detail two years later, saying younger brother Liam, 52, had become 'quite violent'. 'Liam does the 'F*** you and f*** you and f**** you' and he kind of storms out of the dressing room. 'On the way out he picked up a plum and threw it across the dressing room and it smashed against the wall. Part of me wishes it did end like that, that would have been a great headline: 'Plum throws plum and finishes f***ing Oasis'. 'He went to his dressing room and he came back with a guitar and he started wielding it like an axe — he nearly took my face off. 'The tour manager came in and said, 'Five minutes!'. I got in the car, sat for five minutes and just said f it, I can't do it any more.' Liam summed up the ruckus in trademark blunt fashion: 'Noel was acting like a d***, I was acting like a d***. Two d***heads in a room — f***ing hell. Band over.' The rivalry began with Liam's birth, according to mum Peggy, 81. She said: 'Noel was absolutely beautiful as a baby and then of course Liam comes along and it takes the limelight off him. 'You could tell the disagreement was there with them. I'm glad they could be a band together — I wouldn't have wanted Liam in a band without Noel.' Both brothers, begrudgingly, have admitted Oasis doesn't work without both of them front and centre. Liam founded the band when Noel was a roadie with Oldham rockers Inspiral Carpets. Noel went to watch them perform and was shocked to discover that, not only was Liam taking it seriously, the band were actually quite good. He was a dick, I was a dick. Two dickheads in a room...f***ing hell. Band over Liam on Noel He later became their chief songwriter, after being convinced to join by his brother. If Peggy hoped being bandmates might forge an unbreakable bond between her sons, those hopes were quickly dashed. Liam says it started when the pair were teens, with an unsavoury incident in their shared bedroom. He said: 'I came home p***ed and couldn't find the light switch so I p***ed all over his new stereo. 'He holds a grudge.' Noel puts it down to a 'power struggle', adding: 'It's about me being in charge and everybody directing everything towards me and Liam being p***ed off about it. That's what starts it all.' 9 9 The fact they're polar opposites doesn't help, as Noel explains: 'I hate the term sibling rivalry but that's effectively what it is. 'I know my brother better than anybody else. Liam's like a dog, and I'm like a cat. 'Cats are very independent creatures, they don't give a f***, right b*****ds. Dogs are just 'f***ing play with me, play with me, please. F***ing throw that ball for me.' It's as basic as that. 'I'm a cat, I've accepted it — I'm a bit of a b*****d. 'What can I say? I'm a bit of a c**t.' The brothers' first public fallout was at legendary LA venue Whisky a Go Go, in September 1994. Fresh from a successful tour of Japan, the band hit the hard stuff before the gig — believing they were snorting cocaine, when it was actually crystal meth. Cricket bat was weapon of choice The gig was a calamity and Noel hit the roof, sparking Liam to throw a tambourine at his fuming brother's head. Noel left, leaving LA to stay with a female fan in San Francisco he had met weeks before. The following year, a cricket bat was the weapon of choice — and Noel was the one wielding it. He whacked Liam's head after he'd brought people back to the recording studio while Noel was trying to work on second album (What's The Story) Morning Glory? Noel performing more vocals was also starting to annoy his brother, even though it was Liam's form for leaving gigs early that encouraged him to take the mic. Noel showed off his singing in 1996 at their MTV Unplugged gig in London's Royal Festival Hall, after Liam pulled out. He still turned up and heckled from the audience. Noel left again in Barcelona in 2000, after Liam questioned the legitimacy of Anais, his daughter by former wife Meg Mathews. Speaking about the incident in 2005, Noel said: 'I've never forgiven him because he's never apologised.' The insults and stage walkouts continued over the next four years, until that final Paris night. In biopic Supersonic, Noel said: 'Oasis's greatest strength was the relationship between me and Liam, it's also what drove the band into the ground.' After the break-up, the pair were quick to get back into music. Liam's new band Beady Eye included Oasis bandmates Gem Archer and Andy Bell and enjoyed some initial success. Their two albums reached No3 and No2 in the album chart, with some Oasis fans saying Liam's singing voice had not sounded so good since the Morning Glory days. His brother returned with Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds. Three of their four studio solo albums hit the top spot. But Liam went solo in 2014 and, annoyingly for Noel, went on to eclipse him. In 2021, Noel said: 'Liam is doing massive gigs, he's selling more records than I am and he's selling more tickets than I am, if you can believe that.' Away from music, Liam has also kept up with his love of fashion — launched his Pretty Green label in 2009 — and was named as one of the new faces of fashion brand Stone Island in September last year. Noel ventured into clothing too, designing the Definitely City range for his beloved Manchester City, which launched last year. The association with his boyhood club remains as strong as ever, he has close relationships with manager Pep Guardiola and current and former players, including ex-skipper Vincent Kompany. Over the past two years, though, Liam's insults had waned. Reforming band would be 'biblical' Instead, he was talking up the prospect of the band reforming on social media, saying it would be 'biblical'. The change of tone sparked Noel to appear more open about a possible comeback, admitting he simply couldn't ignore the sums of money being discussed. On The Jonathan Ross Show in 2021, Noel said he would reform Oasis for '£100million'. From that moment, the ultimate music comeback was well and truly on — and he could well earn close to that figure. It appears Noel's daughter Anais, now 25, played a big part in getting the band back together. The influencer worked tirelessly to reconcile her dad and uncle's relationship, having forged a bond with Liam's kids Gene, 23, Lennon, 25, and Molly, 27. Anais believed making up with his brother would heal the pain of his recent divorce to second wife Sara McDonald, which was confirmed in January 2023. She, along with millions of fans, will be hoping against hope that the brothers can finally look back without the anger. OASIS ON OASIS NOEL ON LIAM 'Liam got a Rolex. I got a Rolls-Royce. Which is brilliant, 'cos I can't drive and Liam can't tell the time.' (The Jonathan Ross Show, BBC One, September 2004) 'He's the angriest man you'll ever meet. He's like a man with a fork in a world of soup.' (Q, April 2009) ' . . . Sounds like Adele shouting into a bucket.'

For unsophisticated people. Made by an unsophisticated man.' (The Guardian, August 2019) LIAM ON NOEL 'He couldn't handle the rock 'n' roll. He was too scared of it.

IT'S GIG TOILETS AND ALCOHOL WITH just three days to go until the first reunion show, Cardiff was bringing in the booze – and the loos. The capital is preparing for the arrival of thousands of fans ahead of Friday's gig in the Principality Stadium. 9 9 9 9 Giant posters of Noel and Liam have been put up all over the city as excitement grows. Meanwhile, a new poll reveals Oasis is the band that splits the nation. Nearly half of Brits – 47 per cent – find Oasis fans irritating. A fifth are sick of hearing friends and family talk about the band before the tour even starts, according to pub chain Flaming Grill's survey. But 44 per cent say they are fans, while 12 per cent reckon Liam Gallagher would be a great prime minister. Now the pub chain is rolling out Gallagher-free 'Meh for it' zones in the cities with the highest numbers of Oasis loathers, such as Plymouth and Newcastle, where customers will be barred from singing Wonderwall. But in Oasis-loving cities, including Manchester and London, Flaming Grill pubs will be holding 'Mad fer it' events.
