Up until her wedding week, Sofia was mainly known for her famous boyfriends.
Sofia has been romantically linked to plenty of famous men, including Scott Disick, who she had a yearlong relationship with that ended up being pretty controversial, given their huge age gap.
Before she and The Kardashians star hooked up, Sofia briefly dated another big-name celebrity: Justin Bieber.
Now, it appears Sofia is getting attention because of her winning personality.
She kicked off her wedding week by sharing a behind-the-scenes look with fans.
The newly married model spent the week of April 20 in France as she prepared to tie the knot with music executive Elliot Grange. Sofia posted several low-key videos of herself getting ready for the week's various events, including several "get ready with me" style clips where she talked with viewers about what she was doing and what she planned to wear, getting real-time advice on her looks.
People were mesmerized with her totally down to earth personality.
The whole thing felt like a small-scale reality show where followers got a chance to play along in real time. Many people found the whole approach endearing, which helped Sofia's content go viral.
"This is my Super Bowl," one fan hilariously posted.
Another person compared her wedding day to another heavily viewed occasion. "Just so you know your wedding is my royal wedding," the fan wrote.
So how did Sofia go from Scott's girlfriend to TikTok 'it girl?'
Despite being uber wealthy and having a wedding celebration that costs more than most people will earn over the course of their lifetime, Sofia feels like someone you went to high school with.
She's likable, charming, and vulnerable, making her a fan favorite amongst TikTokers and Instagram users alike.

Her likability makes people forget that she's the daughter of a famous singer who married the son of another wealthy couple.
Even though she's part of the 1% and will never know the struggles of the rest of Americans, people really like her. Many dubbed her as the new "people's princess" and everyone's "fave unproblematic nepo baby."
Whether that love fest continues after Sofia gets back from her honeymoon remains to be seen, but for right now it's clear that everyone loves her.
