Who is Sophia Stallone dating?

Sophia revealed who her partner is in 'The Family Stallone' and said that she's "really happy". She has a "really good" relationship with him, but it is "hard" because he "lives across the country." Sophia discloses during her private confessional that she's dating Grant Sholem, a finance professional. He's "very normal and very awesome," and she knew he'd be her boyfriend right away since he's "so caring about everybody else's feelings".

As a 26-year-old, she considers herself to be "in a different mindset" than her younger sisters, and she's not dating for the sake of dating. She wishes to meet a partner with whom she can spend the rest of her life. But dating has been difficult for the Stallone sisters. Not only does their father terrify their partners by impersonating 'Rambo' in real life, but men frequently take advantage of them. Clearly, things haven't been easy for them, but Sophia claims that when she met Grant, she knew he loved her for who she was.

Are Sophia and Grant still together?

Unfortunately, theirs has always been a long-distance relationship, so it's never been simple. Sophia is getting tired of seeing each other only four times a month. Sophia, on the other hand, has some optimism because her parents have maintained a long-distance connection over the years. However, when Sophia meets her father later in the series, he admits that "it's almost impossible" to handle a long-distance relationship properly. "It wasn't easy," he concedes as he was gone four out of ten years of their relationship, "if you put it all together." He informs Sophia that "it takes a toll" and that time is the "most valuable currency" we have as humans, so "you gotta spend it in the right spot."

Sophia takes the difficult step of breaking up with her lover after having a conversation with her father. She understands she doesn't want to be in a long-distance relationship forever, but going through a breakup stings.

The first two episodes of 'The Family Stallone' will be available on Paramount+ on Wednesday, May 17, 2023, with more episodes following every Wednesday thereafter.
