987 DJ Sonia Chew, 26, is dating a 40-year-old investment banker and they’re making it official here.
When we interviewed Sonia Chew for her 8 DAYS cover with Joakim Gomez, the 26-year-old radio jock let slip a tantalising tidbit. We were talking about 25-year-old Julie Tan possibly dating 18-year-old Calvert Tay (it turns out they’re not actually dating, which makes the whole Hong Huifang and Pan Lingling saga even more… bizarre), when she says, “Anyway, I’m not one to judge the age gap between Julie and Calvert, ’cos I’m dating a guy who’s quite a bit older than me.”
Woah. It’s not every day an artiste volunteers info about who she’s seeing. Usually, trying to get a celeb to spill on his or her relationship status is met with a non-committal laugh or a “I’d like to keep it private.” But here’s Sonia telling us about her 40-year-old investment banker beau like it’s NBD, and how they just got together officially a couple of months ago. In case it was off the record, we messaged her after the interview to check if we can run the news about her new man. “Hahahah sure” was her reply. And then, “U no need photo or anything right hahaha”. Um, sure we do! Can or not? “I check if he’s cool with it.”
