Meet Christopher Meloni's 2 Kids — Sophia and Dante

Born on March 23, 2001, Sophia Eva Pietra Meloni is the couple's eldest child and only daughter. The 21-year-old is a big fan of family time — just take a look at Chris's Instagram, and you'll see. She also enjoys being out in nature, especially with their dog Scotty. In a 2017 episode of "The View," the "Happy!" actor joked that Sophia doubles as his daughter and in-home stylist: "Usually it's the parent that goes 'No . . . you're not walking out of the house dressed like that,' but it's my daughter going 'Dad, let me see. Turn around. Go back upstairs!'"

Sophia, who is a writer, started attending Wesleyan University in 2020, but took a gap year in 2021 amid the COVID pandemic, during which she worked as a production assistant on the set of "Law & ORder: SVU."
