Where Is Sophia From?
The singer was born on April 18, 2003 in Harlow, Essex, England. At the age of 8 and 5 respectively, Sophia and Rosie gained attention online with a viral cover of “Super Bass.” In October 2011, they performed it on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and were instantly skyrocketed to fame.
She Reportedly Has A Boyfriend
The artist told ET last December that she was in a relationship. “I keep that side of my life pretty private, but I do have a boyfriend and I’ve been with him for maybe two years but I don’t post him on Instagram or anything,” she said. “Obviously, now that I’m older, that is a part of my life.”
Sophia Is Planning A Gender Reveal Party
During her YouTube pregnancy announcement, Sophia said she knows the sex of the baby and will be announcing it soon. “I am going to do a gender reveal for you guys in a separate video,” she said. “So you can expect to see that soon on my channel, so make sure you watch out for that.”
She Started A Fashion Line
In 2020, Sophia launched her own clothing line called LoLo London. “This is one of the most exciting and enjoyable things I’ve ever done,” she said in a statement at the time. “I’ve always loved fashion from when I was a little girl dressing up in tutus and tiaras, and then leaving that behind to make way for my teenage years and changing my wardrobe and style.” As of Oct. 2022, the company’s website says they are permanently closed.
Sophia & Rosie Performed On The Final ‘Ellen’ Show
Sophia and her cousin Rosie reunited with Ellen DeGeneres on the May 11 episode of the final season of the talk show in 2022. A montage showed the adorable pair’s best moments from their numerous appearances, and they even closed out the show by singing “Super Bass,” the song they covered as kids in a viral video that brought them to Ellen in the first place!
Rosie, now 16, took to Instagram to congratulate her cousin and best friend. “This photo was the moment Sophia told me she was pregnant (as you can see I am crying),” she captioned an image of the two embracing, clearly emotional over the moment. “Congratulations to my beautiful cousin Sophia on the news of your pregnancy! To say I’m excited is a understatement, I can’t wait to share this whole new chapter with you and be by your side watching you be the best mum ever! Love you so so much… #sophiagrace #rosie #baby,” the aunt-to-be also wrote.
