Bobby Flay has a stylish father-daughter combination.
The Food Network star, 59, and his daughter Sophie, 28, are in Paris for the 2024 Summer Olympics, kicking off their family vacation with a posh visit to the Louvre. On August 2, Sophie shared photos and videos on her Instagram stories as the two wandered around the prestigious museum with champagne.
“We start the trip with a crazy tour of the Louvre,” she wrote above a video of the building’s iconic glass pyramid.
As the pair posed in one of the galleries, Bobby wore a muted purple suit, while Sophie wore a polka dot floor-length dress.

Of course, it’s not a trip to the Louvre without seeing the Mona Lisa. In the adorable video, the father-daughter duo shared a laugh in front of Leonardo da Vinci’s famous masterpiece, which usually attracts thick crowds of tourists.
They ended their elite tour of the museum by watching a string orchestra play in the corridors.

Bobby and Sophie’s trip was months in the making. It’s in May Bobby’s triple threat star told PEOPLE she plans to take her daughter, who works as a reporter in Los Angeles for ABC7, to the Games.
“They invited me to Paris and Sophie said, ‘Yes, I’m your plus one,'” Bobby recalled. “She worked the Olympics. When she was an intern at USC, she worked for NBC, so she went to South Korea and she went to Rio. She considers herself my Olympic expert.”

He added: “Sophie was like … she jumped right in. She’s like, ‘Dad, I’m your plus one. That’s it.’
The cookbook author, who recently split from his girlfriend Christina Pérez, was happy to oblige.
“Sophie is doing a great job,” he said of his daughter’s career. “Look, I’m her dad, so I’m as proud as I can be. She’s just getting better and better at ABC and becoming an asset, which is always the goal.”
