You are wonderful! I wish you all the best and love that you see the good in everyone. That is a great quality to possess and I think you make people feel happy when they are around you.

Sonja, I just think you are wonderful on the show. You just seem so genuine. I love how you ALWAYS take the time to be polite to everyone! You are the real deal...very classy (unlike some of the others) I hope you stick around.

Sonja I love you already! Luann can blab all she wants, you're the one with the class.

Very well said, I like that you are observant, can speak about it intelligently and very non judgmental. You give your opinion and keep moving, very refreshing. I hope you dont get caught up in this drama the other housewives are experiencing. I think you carry yourself very well and wouldnt be surprised to see you married. I wouldnt sit around and think about it or dwell on it every time you go out with a man....you know who you are and what you want and have been down that road before, so there is no way you would be married if it wasnt with the right person for the right reasons...I think it would just come naturally. Glad you are on the show, definitely a breath of fresh air.

OMG. I think we have a genuinely nice person on this show! You give everyone the benefit of the doubt and seek the most positive interpretation you can. You are a joy to watch

Rock on Sonja!! Your honesty and kindness is refreshing.

It's nice to hear such kind words about other cast members. You seem to give the benefit of the doubt. I'm glad your here!

Sonja-Nice to have you on the show. I think you are a great addition :-)

Keep seeing the good in everyone, it suits your personality. Do not become catty like some of the women (Jill). Have fun with LuAnn, she needs a girlfriend with no strings attached, like (Jill). I like watching you, you are a breath of fresh air and this show needs it.

You are so re-freshing and a great addition to the show. I can't wait to see what's to come...

Hi Sonja !!

After watching tonight's episode, and reading your blog, I must say, I like you!! You're a breath of fresh air. I'm happy that Bravo decided to add you to the show. Bethenny, and Alex are my favorite girls on the show. Now I have 3 favorites.

Thanks, and welcome,

JeannieOhio

Thank you for being a breath of fresh air. You seem so true to yourself and those around you that there is no air of pretension in you. Being a Sag I understand the whole looking for the good in all people, but believe me Jill does not have true Sag traits, but you do. I can't wait to watch more of you this season and Good Luck with the Insane Asylum that is RHNY.

Sonja, You are a doll! I am so glad you are on this show because you are a sweetheart. Despite having been married to an affluent man, you are SO down to earth! You are charming, nice, beautiful, and fun. There is no negativity about you whatsoever. Out of all the women, (except Alex) you do not create any drama. I wish I had more girlfriends like you! Keep staying so lovely.

Dear Sonja,

You are already a beautiful and desireable woman. After seeing tonights episode and your visit to the plastic surgeon, I do not see the reason for you to have anything nipped or tucked.

I understand the need we all have to improve ourselves, BUT I dont think you need any help at all to make yourself more beautiful than you already are.

Yours truly,

Ed

Sonja, you are a refreshing breath of fresh air for the HWNYC! You keep it real and that makes you all the more attractive! Looking forward to watching you in upcoming shows.

Still loving you, your class,honesty, and positive attitude is a lesson that should be taught to others on the show. Keep being you, you are fabulous!

Good blog - I'm glad you're taking a sort of neutral approach to the conflict. No point in mixing it up with them, especially when you don't know everyone involved well.

I want to say a bit about the way people on the Talk Bubble spoke about Roberta. There were some very cruel remarks and I hope she wasn't hurt by them. You obviously trust her and I'm glad to see that you have respect for her work as a medium. I've done that type of work myself and I hate that people were judging her by her looks. I know it's Bravo and all, but everybody can't be perfect. Some people are fabulous on the inside, some out, some both. Thanks for recognizing her gifts instead of focusing on her imperfections. It's a lesson a lot of people need to learn.

You seem like a genuinely nice person, so please be careful not to turn your back on Jill. If you think she won't stab you, just look at her trail of victims. But you also seem to be a clever person, so I expect you can hold your own. Good luck and welcome to the show.

Sonja,

I like you more and more every week! You are fun and so real, you should lay off hanging out with the "mean girls" they will turn on you soon! You are the best new addition to any of the housewives shows!

Valerie

Sonja,You have truly been a fresh breath of life on T.V.!! Who knew most certainly not I that there were women of your status with such grace,class,humbleness,brutal honesty yet with such an endearing down to earth nature about you. I am so ecstatic that you have arrived on this show. I absolutely adore you!! I am 41 and have a similar figure such as yours with a bit of a pooch ha ha ha..... DO NOT have any doubts My Goodness you are just gorgeous daaaaling and I must say you have a look that no one could emulate. You have so many traits as myself and as picky and guarded as I am about whom I invite into my life I have to say I would Love to have lunch with you!! What a trip you would be as a friend!! I will be a fan of the show as long as you are on it !!! The Very best to you and your daughter!!

I like your comments about J, B and A. They are unbiased and you seem sincere. Please don't change; your heart is in the right direction and you don't seem to be a "team" person. You are definetly your own person and keep in mind what you said about being loyal to the wrong people; stop it before it stops. Take Care

Sonja, I really like you and I think you are a great role model! You're confident, secure, outspoken (without being rude), and thoughtful. You voice your opinion, but you do it with tact. You don't hide who you are, and you don't come across as spoiled or ungrateful. I'm 25, and I think you are hotter than most 25 year olds I know! It's great to see you on this show, and you always look so chic. I love it!

I really like you Sonja. You definitely don't seem as catty as the other girls and you definitely bring a lighthearted charm to the show.

Hi Sonja, wow I love reading your blogs. I appreciate your thoughtfulness and respect of others when you write your blogs. You are positive and empathic!!

thank you sonja for bringing some class to my favorite housewives show! And also thank you for not being caddy and mean! I love all of the housewives but am getting sick of all the pettiness. You are very cool. I love your segments! keep it up!

I am so excited for your refreshing views especially on the other housewives.

Good on ya!

Wow a housewife with a brain lol....you see and have most of these wives figured out. Good for you. Just remember what you see or you could be the next Jill victim lol.

Thanks for such a nice post. It was complimentary of all the other ladies.

Sonja: I liked you until you made the sarcastic Michael Jackson comment when you were looking into plastic surgery. It was rude and disrespectful. Michael Jackson did not start plastic surgery and being that he has passed away you should find another person to make fun of. I hope you are a one season housewife.

I'm impressed. So far you are playing the Reality TV Game very, very well. You are being filmed/edited well and blogging well. You may come out the winner this season. :) (And you have amazing skin btw).

Really didn't think your Michael Jackson plastic surgery comment was necessary.

Sonja,

Enjoyed your blog. It appears you got more common sense then a few other women on the show. Hoping you don't get caught up with all the gossip, back stabbing that seems to run rampant.

As for your pouch you look great but if it bothers you I say go for it.

Cindy

Sonja,

You're so elegant! Also, thanks for changing up the chemistry. Speaking in terms of the show, you really lighten up the mood!

Love you - you really are a class act. I love that you don't feel it necessary to "knock" others down in order to make yourself appear better. I know that you already see and feel Jill for what she is, A Phoney Baloney!!!

You are a refreshing addition to the show! Watch out for Jill when she met you and you walked away she said "she's pretty" with one of her classic ugly mean faces and snotty tone - jealousy here. And she will try to break up or destroy your friendship with LuAnn and/or Ramona. Mean girl don't wanna be left out and thinks the world revolves around her! Blah!

Sonja, You're the best! Finally we have a woman who is classy without a title, secure with herself and her friends unlike Jill (there's no helping her!), and not "coo coo for coco puffs" like Kelly. I see how you like to focus on the good and that brings a good aura around you. And finally someone who can mention sex without being offensive. I do love Bethenny, have grown fond of Alex, and have always liked Ramona even though she has done some outlandish things, but you definitely fit the bill. BravoTV hit a homerun with you! Please stay on the show so I can have a reason to still watch this guilty pleasure.

I think you are charming and smart. I'd love to have your little pooch,and your figure! I think you'll be great on the show. Watch out for Jill,as She has aready made a low blow on your character. Something to the effect of just have some men around to stick their tounge down Sonja's throat. Something like that. It was a gross mean remark. She seems jealous and greedy. I don't like her at all. Good luck. I'm looking foward to following you on the show. Gael

What a lovely blog. I felt you kept neutral when the wicked witches were cackling about Bethanny and you are right we get hormonal and need some slack! Keepin it classy makes me like you and I wasnt so sure at first... well done this week.

Thanks for joining the show. I like the new addition. All fun. I've had enough of the blind-siding attacks. More fun, please, which to me means more Sonja!

You are a refreshing addition to the show! And you are right to some extent about the hormones! You have a great body and really your pooch is SO tiny

Please don't join the everyone hates Jill wagon train, so soon! You are wrong, those who have been watching the show from the begininning know and love Jill. Her heart truly is always in the right place, sometimes her words are not but then whose perfect? Not me or any other human I know.

Sonja -- you really came across as a compassionate person last night regarding Bethenny and it was nice to see. Some of the other Housewives seem to be too quick to judge and comment negatively .... you did a nice thing for Bethenny and I hope as she watched the show she takes that in.

Hope we get to see some of you and your daughter interacting ...

Hi, The comment that was made about Michael Jackson was disrespectful. You see Sonja he passed away last year and left behind 3 heartbroken children and family members. They are still grieving and his fans are also. Please in the future before making a hurtful statement please consider other peoples feelings!!! Let's have more class and less trash in this world!

Dear Sonja,

You are a breath of fresh air. It seems that you're fair in your assesments, an equal opportunity cast member, and kind in your remarks. Haven't heard or seen any cattinest from you. Although you're "priviledged," as LuAnn likes to describe herself, you certainly seem like a honest-to-good person.

I really enjoyed your blog. You are refreshing to read. To the point yet not nasty.

Wow. Just Wow! You have come on this show and brought some sunshine, girl! This season was such a downer until you came in! You're like the Greek chorus, giving centered exposition to everything. Thank you for coming aboard - and thanks for giving voice to us 40-somethings that aren't dead below the waist!

Sonja, As a life-long Manhattan-ite, I find you a great addition to the show. Your skin is AMAZING. So far, you have taken the high road with authenticity and style! Kudos to you & Bravo!

Whenever a new person joins the current cast, as a viewer it is hard to know how to feel. I have watched you in the episodes and remained neutral. After reading your blog I can honestly say you are a breath of fresh air. You have managed to convey your thoughts and feelings without passing judgment or becoming too snarky kudos to you. Keep up the good work.

You have been such a breath of fresh air. You seem to have ease with yourself (good and bad) as well as others. Your honesty is refreshing, and even when you do not agree with someone, your comments do not come off as nasty.

But I used to think that about Jill too. So I am holding out a final judgement for awhile. LOL!
