Sofia Richie & Matthew Morton Kiss Passionately During Dinner Date

Sofia Richie shows off her incredible beach body in a new campaign for Frankies Bikinis. The 20-year-old model, girlfriend of Scott Disick and daughter of singer Lionel Richie, struts her stuff as she plays the role of California girl in a series of sexy two-pieces. The Frankies Bikinis x Sofia Richie collection launches on July 8, 2019, and the collection consists of 10 swimwear pieces available in pink and blue tie-dye prints, ranging in price from $85 — $100USD. Francesca Aiello, Founder and Creative Director of Frankies Bikinis explained: ‘When dreaming up the perfect “it” girl to collaborate with, Sofia instantly came to mind — she exudes such confidence and femininity. ‘Working with Sofia on this collection and then bringing it to life in our campaign shoot was a breeze. Our personal style and taste link up perfectly and I think that had something to do with the fact that we both grew up living the typical California girl lifestyle.’. 02 Jul 2019 Pictured: Sofia Richie models the new Frankies Bikinis x Sofia Richie collection, which launches on 8 July, 2019.

Sofia Richie and Matthew Morton’s lips weren’t socially distancing from each other during a dinner with friends on Nov. 2. Quite the opposite. While sitting at an outdoor eatery in Beverly Hills, Sofia, 22, and Matthew, 27, couldn’t help themselves and just had to sneak in some PDA. The Cha Cha Matcha co-founder, wearing a trucker cap and white t-shirt, was caught planting a passionate kiss on the lips of Lionel Richie’s young daughter. This bit of romance was probably tastier than anything on the menu, and afterward, the new couple left the restaurant together in the same car. Who needs dessert when your date is such a snack?

The model first hinted that she had a new love in her life when she and a “mystery man” were seen having dinner together at Nobu on Oct. 17. Because both Sofia and her unknown guest wore facemasks due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it took a moment to find out her “mystery date.” It turns out it was Matthew, the young co-founder of the “alternative to artisanal coffee culture” brand that sells matcha in various forms. Like Sofia, Matthew has a famous father in Peter Morton, the founder of the Hard Rock Cafe and Hotel chain. Matthew’s late brother, Harry Morton, founded the Pink Taco restaurant chain, and at one time, he owned Hollywood’s infamous nightclub, the Viper Room.

So, it’s official: Sofia has moved on from Scott Disick. She and the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star called it quits, seemingly for good, in August. Since then, Scott hasn’t let the grass grow under his feet. He was recently seen passing the time by hanging out with models Bella Banos, 24, and Megan Blake Irwin. Meanwhile, Sofia has obviously found a new man for herself.

However, don’t think that Sofia is rushing into anything serious. She is “still enjoying the single life and isn’t interested in being tied down,” a source told HollywoodLife EXCLUSIVELY. She thinks Matthew is “a great guy,” but since she just got out of a long-term relationship with Scott, she’s “interested in seeing what’s out there.” She’s focused on “herself,” according to the source, and “spending quality time with family and reconnecting with old friends.”

With that said, Matthew might have an ace up his sleeve: Sofia’s brother, Miles Richie. Miles “approves” of Matt, the source tells HollywoodLife, and that brotherly seal of approval “is a huge bonus” to Sofia because “his opinion means everything to her.”
