When did Sonny and Danielle meet?

Sonny and dancer Danielle have been dating since 2023. Their romance came after his five-year relationship with former fiancée Lauren Faith came to an end.

He told The Sun at the time: “I feel the best I’ve ever felt, and that does give you an air of confidence when you’re going out and talking to people. I am in a relationship and I didn’t expect to be in it, in the nicest way possible.

“We’ve been seeing each other since January and the nice thing about it is we’ve kept it so low key.”
