Eloise Gets an iPhone.Sofia Richie Grainge has been lambasted by social media critics after she confirmed that her five-month-old daughter Eloise already has an iPhone.The model, 26, spoke about her daughter, whom she shares with husband Elliot Grainge, on Thursday’s episode of the Therapuss podcast, hosted by social media personality Jake Shane.
