Sokolova had one daughter, Natasha Kremnev (1917–1968), by her first husband Nikolai Kremnev (married 1917). She subsequently married Leon Woizikovsky, a long-time dancer at Ballets Russes. When she died on 5 February 1974, in Sevenoaks, Kent, England, she was survived by her third husband Ronnie Mahon. Notes Sources Buckle, Richard ed.
