As well as foraying into the fashion industry as a model, Sofia saw her status soar after dating Justin Bieber earlier this year.

Sofia and Justin's romance got off to a roaring start in August as they frolicked in Laguna Beach, California, and by mid-month they were holding hands in Tokyo.

The beauty also spent her 18th birthday with the Canadian singer in August which was the same time he threatened to delete his Instagram account. 

Responding to the backlash from his 77 million followers over his relationship with Sofia, Justin stated: 'I'm gonna make my Instagram private if you guys don't stop the hate this is getting out of hand, if you guys are really fans you wouldn't be so mean to people that I like.' 

'I post what I think is cool': The daughter of crooner Lionel Richie recently admitted she has a very relaxed approach when it comes to her social media account 

'I'm not posting revealing pictures': Sofia also confessed she avoids baring flesh on Instagram to stay out of trouble with trolls 

Meanwhile, Sofia's take on social media is much more relaxed as she recently told NW magazine: 'I just post what I think is cool and what I enjoy,'

'I'm not trying to post some revealing picture to get more followers, so I don't get in trouble,' she added.  

However, for a recent interview with Complex, the stylish star declined to answer any questions about her romance with Bieber, or about her circle that includes the Jenner and Hadid girls.

'A lot of people say they know me and my life, but no one really does,' she told the magazine. 'It’s frustrating.'

'My whole thing is I’m trying to spread love to everyone,' she added. 'Some people don’t see that, but I really am trying to spread positivity to people.' 

While her sister Nicole Richie show to fame on the reality series The Simple Life, Sofia also confessed she won't be following in her footsteps. 

She has already turned down a reality series to follow her career in the fashion industry, which saw her walk in the Chanel Collection des Metiers d'Art 2016/17: Paris Cosmopolite event at the Ritz hotel in Paris earlier this month.
