The singer told US Weekly, at the American Idol auditions, “I’m scared to death, are you kidding me?”

Richie, who is a father of three, said, “Have I been in shock!?”

“I’m the dad, come on”.

After Disick’s current track record with women, it’s understandable her dad is more than a little apprehensive.

When the rumour mill began to swirl with whispers of a relationship between the two in May Sofia publicly addressed them on Twitter.

During the Cannes Film Fester, Sofia Tweeted, Just so everyone can get their panties out of their asses, Scott and I are just homies #relax.”

Sofia, 19, and Disick, 34, were confirmed to be dating when the two were spotted out together in New York City in September.

Disick and Kourtney Kardashian have been separated now for over two years but have three children together.

Disick was in headlands this year after he revealed in an episode on Keeping Up With the Kardashian’s he was a “sex addict” but has since retracted his statement.

In an interview with E! News he said, “I just like sex, but I’m not a sex addict. I said that in a humorous, joking fashion on the show and now I’m getting billed as one, and it’s not the case.

“I do like sex, but I am not an addict.”

The star said he felt it was a “little rude” everyone kept addressing him with the label.

Sofia Ritchie took to social media earlier this week to make their relationship Instagram official.

The two have been photographed with each other but this is the first post either of them have shared themselves on the platform.
