Nicole has been there for Sofia during all her recent milestones, cheering her on as a special supporter. Whether it was Sofia's wedding to Elliot in April 2023 in France, Nicole was there to celebrate with her sister.

Nicole expressed her deep love for her sister via Instagram while showing off the bride's wedding dress.

The creative director of House of Harlow 1960, who has two children with her husband Joel Madden, joked about getting a tattoo to celebrate Sofia's new role as a mother. She playfully suggested getting a tattoo that says "I am the best auntie" to mark the occasion.

While Sofia announced her pregnancy in Vogue in January, she kept much of her journey to motherhood private. She once shared that Nicole helped her set boundaries for what she shares online.

Sofia shared with Net-A-Porter’s Porter in December 2023 that she admires a woman who has experienced a lot and is considered a veteran. She mentioned how this woman has taught her the importance of keeping some things private and not sharing everything with the world.

Reflecting on her own journey, Sofia remembered a time when she felt like she was "living my best life." However, as she grew older, she realized that her actions would shape her reputation for a long time. This led her to seek advice from her older sister, who had already navigated similar paths.

With a newborn at home, now may be time for some motherhood tips and tricks.
