Lionel Richie is reportedly worried his daughter Sofia will "get hurt" by her boyfriend Scott Disick.

The 19-year-old star recently struck up a relationship with 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star Scott - who is 15 years her senior - and her music legend father Lionel is said to be concerned that Scott's "playboy ways" could pose heartbreak for his daughter in the future.
A source said: "He thinks Scott is the worst person she could ever see and that he raised her better than that. He thinks she should have more respect for herself as a young woman. Lionel knows Scott's playboy ways and he doesn't want to see his daughter get hurt."
And it seems their relationship - which the pair confirmed in September after months of speculation - could already be under strain, as sources claim Sofia is "much more invested" in their romance than 34-year-old Scott is.
The insider added: "Sofia is much more invested in the relationship than Scott. Scott isn't treating this as a long-term relationship whatsoever. He is just having fun. Sofia wanted commitment from him, so he committed to be her boyfriend."
However, despite being committed to Sofia, Scott reportedly still has his ex-partner Kourtney Kardashian - with whom he has three children, Mason, seven, Penelope, five, and Reign, two - "at the top of his mind".
The source told People magazine: "He still has Kourtney at the top of his mind all the time, and he is still texting and flirting with other girls. Sofia is very young and naive and doesn't know what she's in for. She feels like she's in the in-crowd right now and loves that Scott has swagger and money and that he loves to travel and party."
Meanwhile, 'Hello' hitmaker Lionel recently said he was "scared to death" at the prospect of his daughter dating Scott.
He said: "Have I been in shock?! I'm the dad, come on. I'm scared to death, are you kidding me?"
