Sonja Morgan made her first appearance on the Real Housewives of New York in the third season and has been gracing fans’ TVs ever since.

Sonja is well-known in the New York social circuit and makes her own rules. As Bravo fans have seen over the years, Sonja lives by the seat of her pants and doesn’t apologize for doing what she loves, even if it makes others uncomfortable. With season 13 of the RHONY being one of the craziest seasons yet, let’s take a look into Sonja Morgan’s past to learn more about the famed toaster oven-maker.

Updated On June 19th, 2021, by Lynn Gibbs: For many RHONY fans, Sonja Morgan is the gift that keeps on giving. She has epic one-liners, a chic fashion sense, and she’s one of a kind when she’s with her friends. There’s something incredibly youthful and eccentric about Sonja — it’s part of why fans love her. And while Miss Morgan has been on Bravo since 2009, there’s still a lot about her that viewers don’t know. As open and honest as Sonja is, she also keeps a lot of private life a secret. Her life as a Morgan was incredibly different from her life on the show and it’s still hard for Sonja to adapt to those changes. However, there’s not much that Lady Morgan could do to keep fans at bay.

13 The (Supposed) Reason Why Sonja & John Divorced

Sonja’s recollection of her divorce is different from the other ladies on RHONY. Sonja has said “My breakup was pretty boring. We were in love and then we broke up. There was no drama,” according to Nicki Swift.

However, it’s been alluded to on the show that Sonja wasn’t loyal to John and cheated on him. Luann even made comments about Sonja being with different men in the South of France while John was back in New York.

12 She Was In An Off-Broadway Play

In 2016, Sonja Morgan was in an off-broadway play called Sex Tips for Straight Women by a Gay Man. Created by Matt Murphy, the play was a three-person comedy act based on the book of the same title written by Dan Anderson and Maggie Berman.

The show was a huge success for off-broadway and ran for four and a half years before closing the curtain.

11 Sonja The Fashion Critic

Sonja Morgan wasn’t just a model, a fashion student, and a fashion designer, she was also a critic. According to her website, she was a weekly fashion critic for Star Magazine.

Considering her love and knowledge of fashion, being a critic sounds like it’s right up Sonja’s alley. She’s like the modern-day Carrie Bradshaw from Sex and the City.

10 She Really Did ‘Marry The Bank’

John Adams Morgan is a man in high places. He is the son of Henry Morgan—who founded Morgan Stanley—and the grandson of J.P. Mogan, the founder of J.P. Morgan & Co. In short, John Adams Morgan has a long family history with the bank. But he’s not one of those men who live off his family without accomplishing much. He created Morgan Joseph & Co., an investment and commercial banking firm.

John met Sonja when she had a job as a hostess at San Pietro in New York City. The pair quickly became engaged and were married for seven years before eventually divorcing.

9 Her Ex Was Related To A Former President

In October of 2000, Sonja and John had a daughter named Quincy Adams Morgan. The name Quincy Adams Morgan happened to be a family name, as John is a directed descendent from two U.S. presidents: The second U.S. President John Adams and then sixth U.S. President John Quincy Adams.

John Adams Morgan has been married four times (Sonja was his third wife) and has three children all named after his famous family. His first child is his namesake, John Adams Morgan Jr. His second wife gave him a son named Chauncey Goss Morgan (named after councilman and grandfather Chauncey Porter Goss), and Sonja gave him his only daughter, Quincy (named after President John Quincy Adams).

8 She’s Had Some Seriously Popular Ex-Boyfriends

Sonja was divorced from John Adams Morgan in 2006 but she has had her fair share of dates before and after her marriage. While talking to The Daily Dish, she admitted to rumors swirling around her love life.

She dated Prince Albert of Monaco for a short while, she went on a few dates on both coasts with actor Owen Wilson, and she even went on a date with a former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills husband, Paul Nassif! And just like most real housewives, she also dated Harry Dubin!

7 She Attended F.I.T.

Before Sonja had her daughter, got married, and became a reality television icon, she got a marketing degree from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York.

Growing up and living in New York City as long as Sonja has, the woman has made herself a New York icon and hangs out with the city’s wealthiest and the elite.

6 Did She Really Hook up With A Southern Charm Star?

In July of 2019, a bunch of Bravo celebrities joined the New York Pride parade. Sonja Morgan was seen dancing on a float alongside Southern Charm star Patricia Altschul. The two were dressed beautifully showing their support.

But after a picture of the two went on Instagram, someone commented that the women were keeping Patricia’s son (Whitney Sudler-Smith) from coming out as gay himself. Instead of commenting on the rude comment herself, Patricia took charge and wrote “He’s not gay…ask Sonja.” Does this mean Sonja and Whitney had a night of passion!?

5 She Was Arrested For A D.U.I.

It was a dark day when Sonja Morgan received a DUI after a wild weekend in the Hamptons. According to NY Daily News, she was pulled over after rolling through a stop sign when the police officer realized she was intoxicated. She failed the sobriety tests outside of the vehicle and after refusing to take a breathalyzer test, she was arrested.

Sonja isn’t the only housewife who has been arrested, of course. Luann, Tinsley, and Leah have all been arrested in the past.

4 Sonja Morgan Isn’t Done With Toaster Ovens

It was a long-running joke on the Bravo series that Sonja was creating a line of toaster ovens that would never hit shelves. She would rant and rave about these toaster ovens and yet there was no prototype and they were nowhere to be seen.

Funnily enough, Sonja said she was creating a toaster oven cookbook filled with easy recipes for toaster oven lovers, but that book never hit shelves. She has given recipes on social media, however; including “Cinnamon Sugar Rolls,” “Toaster Oven Potato Chips,” and even mac n’ cheese! Her love of toaster ovens even got her on the Food Network show, Worst Cooks in America.

3 She Has An Event Planning Business

Sonja is one of those women who talk about her accomplishments and all of the amazing things she’s done over the years but there’s not much evidence to back what she’s talking about (i.e. the toaster oven debacle). She does, however, have an event company called Sonja in the City. Her team can create a party of a lifetime, no matter what the age or theme is.

Some of their work includes Cat Ommanney’s book launch, the American Friends of Blérancourt Launch Dinner Party, and more.

2 Sonja Won Awards For Her Charity Work

According to her Bravo description, she won an award as a Singular Sensation for single women in 1990 for her charitable work. In 2013 she won a New York State Senate award for her businesses.

She’s also been interviewed by countless publications about her helping hand. Sonja may act like a non-stop party gal but she knows when to give back.

1 She Once Filed For Bankruptcy

Sonja filing for bankruptcy hasn’t really been talked about much on The Real Housewives of New York City. In 2010, Sonja Morgan owed $9 million in unpaid funds after two business ventures didn’t end up the way she had hoped.

After five years and reorganizing her finances, Sonja paid her debts and is a new woman.
