Sophie, who has hosted the Aussie iteration of Love Island since 2018, is readying to star in season 7, which is set to appear on Nine later in 2025.

In an interview with Daily Mail Australia, Sophie admitted it was tough for her when she was starting out in entertainment.
‘I think when I was younger I was trying to be everything everyone else wanted me to be in the industry,’ Sophie said.

In 2004, she went on to star as Marilyn Monroe in the Nine Network film The Mystery of Natalie Wood.
But although her star continued to rise, Sophie said she found the cutthroat showbiz industry difficult to handle and almost walked away altogether.
‘Back then it was tough, I felt a little bit misunderstood,’ she admitted, adding that it made her think twice about her career choice.
But instead of giving up, Sophie decided to change her outlook.
‘So I said either get out of the industry or have fun. You know what, take it on. A lot of people would love to be in it. I just kind of fell in it,’ she explained.
The choice to embrace the fickle industry seemingly paid off for Sophie.
After relocating to Los Angeles in 2005, she gained more career highs by landing small roles in Hollywood films Click, Murder World and Spring Break ’83.
Her career surged again Down Under after she found love with Stu Laundy on The Bachelorette back in 2017 – before the pair split.
