Along with his super-famous father—Lionel—and two equally famous siblings—Nicole and Sofia—burgeoning male model Miles Richie is a fresh-faced rising talent who’s adamant about building a name for himself, on his own terms.
Actively modeling for about a year, Richie, who’s signed to top agency Wilhelmina Models, made his runway debut in the Fall/Winter 2018 Phillipp Plein show during New York Fashion Week. Of his debut Richie says, “It was the first show I ever walked. We were walking through snow…a spaceship came down…then Migos came out! It was fun, but it was intense!”

Before he made global headlines in January for allegedly making a bomb threat in London, Richie sat down with ESSENCE to give us an inside look at his life in the fast lane. What we learned is that he’s a humble soul who has his sights set on becoming the ultimate professional while taking over the fashion and modeling world.
