Sonya change when she could finally be a mother to Callum. She added that Sonya would probably struggle with everything that happened with Callum, but she should remember that she has been forgiven. Marriage problems A year after their wedding, Sonya and Toadie's marriage came under strain. Toadie accused Sonya of neglecting their relationship, when she began to get involved in their friends' problems. Morey said, "Sonya and Toadie have been together for five years and, unfortunately, little things are starting to niggle – which doesn't mean they're over, or anything like that, but it's definitely causing a few issues for them." Morey explained that life had slowed down for Sonya and Toadie and they were getting into "the nitty gritty" of their marriage, which was challenging for them both. Things became worse for Sonya and Toadie when Jacob Holmes (Clayton Watson) kissed Sonya. Morey told Kirsty Nutkins from the Daily Express, "The kiss with Jacob was the first big crack in their relationship. Even though Sonya didn't have feelings for him, it hurt Toadie a lot." The actress said it was uncomfortable to play out the scenes involving her character's marital problems. She also found it frustrating, as she knew Sonya in particular was not learning from her mistakes. Morey thought Sonya and Toadie could benefit from better communication, and from Sonya telling people to seek help from other sources, like a counsellor. She also thought Toadie could help his wife out more often, especially if the person she was helping was his friend too. Shortly after Naomi Canning (Morgana O'Reilly) was introduced, it was revealed that she would set her sights on Toadie. Morey doubted Toadie would have an affair, as it was not in his nature. She also said Sonya questions certain things that Naomi does, but then lets them go when she is proved wrong. Morey commented that Sonya and Toadie's relationship was vulnerable to Naomi. Morey told a What's on TV writer that Naomi undermines the things Sonya does, making "small wounds into big gaping bloody cuts." The actress added that she enjoyed working with O'Reilly, but their characters would never be friends as they were complete opposites. Sonya later learned that Naomi had kissed Toadie, and she was angry with her for lying and trying to undermine her marriage. When Naomi and Sonya came face-to-face, Naomi provoked Sonya by blaming her for the troubles
