Sonia Kruger’s new role: stepmum to five

After the toughest year of her life, Sonia looks set to take her love affair with her TV boss to the next level, Angela Mollard writes.

Strolling hand in hand with her new love, Sonia Kruger finally seems to have found peace after one of the worst years of her life.

In the strongest sign of their deepening commitment, the multitalented TV host and her boyfriend Craig McPherson were happy to share their romance with the rest of the world as they soaked up the sun in Bali last week.

With Dancing With The Stars over for the year, Sonia decided to take a well-earned break while considering her future in radio, checking into the $1100-a-night Oberoi Bali Hotel in Seminyak.

It was a rare treat for the couple to enjoy each other’s company away from the demands of work and the stress of Sonia’s separation from her husband. In Sydney, their romance has been curtailed as Sonia continues to share a house with her banker husband James Davies, from whom she split late last year.

While Sonia has not been seen publicly with Craig’s five children, this holiday signals a deepening in the couple’s relationship, with insiders at Channel Seven talking about whether she might take on the role of stepmother when her separation is finalised.
