Not Married But Wants To Be Mom!
Sonia has a fascinating personal life when it comes to her love affairs. She was rumored to be dating her work partner Ron Corning, who anchors news along with her on News 8 Daybreak when one of their fans tweeted;
@SoniaAzadTV The way you and Ron interact it seems you could either be married or siblings????.
Sonia also gifted Ron a coffee mug on his birthday wishing him through her Twitter. Again recently in March, another fan speculated that they are married. However, News 8 Daybreak replied the tweet confirming that they’re neither dating nor married.
Though she doesn’t completely open up about her relationship status, she likes interacting with her fans on her social media accounts. On 2017’s Valentine’s Day, she wished everyone tweeting;
