Sophia Grace Brownlee Welcomes Third Baby Amidst Emotional Journey

The Ellen DeGeneres Show child star Sophia Grace Brownlee is officially a mom of three. Brownlee, 23, announced via Instagram on Friday, October 16, that she welcomed daughter Ariella Bleu on October 4, sharing photos of herself holding the newborn next to a pair of balloons. Brownlee announed in June that she was expecting her third baby. “We are so excited to meet you ��,” the influencer wrote via Instagram, sharing maternity footage in which she showed her eldest children ultrasound videos. She also added “Pregnant,” “Pregnancy,” “Mom of 3” and “3 Family Siblings” hashtags to her announcement.

Brownlee, who rose to fame dancing to Nicki Minaj’s “Super Bass” on Ellen DeGeneres’ talk show, welcomed son River in March 2023. Her daughter, Athena, followed in December 2024. (Brownlee has never publicly identified the father of her children.) “I was quite young when I had River. I was 19, which I do feel like is quite young,” Brownlee recalled on the “Private Story” podcast in February. “I don’t regret, like, doing anything because I’m quite happy with where I am now. When I had Athena, I was 21, which is a bit more older.” https://www.instagram.com/p/Dej3kaKipY5/?img_index=1 She added at the time, “It’s obviously young to have kids, but I don’t really think there’s a right age to have kids as long as you’re ready and you’re mature enough, that’s all that matters.” For Brownlee, she felt “financially stable” enough to have a family because of her childhood career earnings.

“If I wasn’t, like, I would have been struggling a lot,” she acknowledged. “So, yeah, I’m blessed to have been in that situation.”
