Since 1992, Sonia Kruger has been a fixture on our screens, from her role as Tina Sparkle in Baz Luhrmann’s cult film Strictly Ballroom to working as a television presenter on morning TV and hosting some of Australia’s most successful reality shows - including, of course, Dancing With The Stars which is back on our screens this week. But when it comes to her private life, Sonia likes to keep it private. But today we get a little more personal. We discuss how she was instrumental in bringing Dancing With The Stars to screen, what life as the mother of a nine-year-old girl is really like, how THAT Gold Logies speech led her to therapy and what it was like when her partner Craig was recently the one in the headlines. Dancing With The Stars premieres Sunday July 7 on Channel 7 and 7plus.
