Trumpet-playing Sonia Jackson arrives in Albert Square in 1993 with the rest of her family. The third of Carol Jackson (Lindsey Coulson)'s four children, Sonia was the result of her mother's one-night stand with Terry Cant, whom Sonia never knew.
During her early childhood, she becomes close friends with Clare Tyler (Gemma Bissix) and the two are inseparable until Clare falls in with the wrong crowd at school and starts bullying Sonia but they reconcile before Clare leaves in 1998. Sonia herself briefly leaves Walford in 1997, following her brother Billie (Devon Anderson)'s kidnapping, but returns to visit her family, eventually moving back permanently to live with her sister Bianca (Patsy Palmer), in 1998.
