About
The third child of a very dysfunctional family, Sonia never knew her real dad - but mum Carol doted on her.

Following a night of passion with Martin Fowler,Natalie Evans bought Sonia a pregnancy test but Sonia told her there was no need as she started her period which she was so relieved about... or so she thought! So she embarked on a new relationship with gorgeous Jamie Mitchell. Nine months later after a romantic meal, Sonia returned home with extreme tummy ache. Turned out it was more than just trapped wind - Sonia went into labour on the living room floor assisted by Mo Harris. This heralded the arrival of baby Chloe. Sonia battled with her conscience, but faced with the ever unreliable Martin as father, she decided to give baby Chloe up for adoption, much to interfering granny Pauline Fowler's dismay.

In a cruel twist of fate, it was Martin, the father of her child, who knocked down and killed Sonia's one true love, Jamie Mitchell. Fortunately, Martin proved to be her second true love. In spite of his mother's opposition, his love for Sonia reformed Martin. However, the path of their love was bumpy to say the least. The pair eloped, but Martin involuntarily got involved with a barmaid called Sarah who lied about them sleeping together then stalked and stabbed him... Sonia then had a lesbian love called Tina but her and Martin got back together, Married and they got their daughter back (now named Rebecca "Bex"). Then they went through a divorce then got back together!

Pauline faked a brain tumour to keep them apart and Martin accused Sonia of killing his mother but finally they reconciled and moved to Manchester with Rebecca. In January 2011, Sonia admitted to mum Carol that she’d left Martin in Manchester. After Carol's cancer revelation though, Sonia found Carol on her doorstep. In 2016, Sonia was offered a job in Kettering and moved there and in 2017, she had relationship with Bex's school teacher Gethin Pryce
