I’m scared to death my daughter’s dating Scott Disick – Lionel Richie

Singer, Lionel Richie is far from thrilled and scared to death about his 19-year-old daughter’s new boo.

When asked how he felt about his youngest daughter, Sofia Richie, dating 34-year-old reality star and cautionary tale, Scott Disick, the “Endless Love” singer told Us Weekly, “I’m scared to death, are you kidding me?”

Richie, who is a judge on the rebooted “American Idol” alongside Katy Perry and Luke Bryant, revealed that he doesn’t think his concern is all that strange.

Have I been in shock?!” he told the magazine. “I’m the dad, come on.

Regardless of his reaction to the news, it doesn’t sound like there’s much he can do stop his model daughter from dating the father of three. 

Rumours had been swirling that the couple were together, but it wasn’t officially confirmed until Disick posted on his Instagram a photo of the 2 of them snuggling.

It shouldn’t come as any surprise that Lionel is worried about his daughter’s well-being.
