10th November 2025 – (Hong Kong) Sonija Kwok, aged 51, rose to fame after winning the Miss Hong Kong pageant in 1999. She went on to star in numerous classic TV dramas and was once a leading actress at TVB. After marrying mainland martial arts instructor Zhu Shaojie in 2011 and giving birth to their daughter Kylie Zhu the following year, Sonija gradually reduced her on-screen appearances. Recently, Sonija attended a stage play with friends. A photo was shared on Instagram with Sonija, sparking unexpected discussions among netizens about Sonija’s appearance.
Sonija Kwok’s latest photos have ignited discussions online. Many netizens have pointed out changes in her facial features, noting a square jawline and an unusual “angle” in her cheekbones, which appear somewhat unnatural. Additionally, observations reveal deeper laugh lines and slight puffiness in the cheek area. While some lamented, “She seems to be ageing quickly,” and “Her face seems different,” others attributed these changes to camera angles.
In a surprising twist, Sonija Kwok has made fewer public appearances in recent years. Earlier, she traveled to Vietnam with her daughter, without her husband Zhu Shaojie in sight, leading to speculations about their marriage. Sonija met Zhu Shaojie, who is six years her junior, while filming a drama in 2011. During the shoot, she struggled with a martial arts scene, with Zhu patiently guiding her through the process, eventually helping her successfully complete the shoot. Their bond grew during filming, and after a few months of dating, they tied the knot.
Sonija Kwok’s journey from winning the Miss Hong Kong title in 1999 to becoming a prominent figure in the entertainment industry has been marked by various milestones. Her recent public appearance alongside friends at a theatre production has reignited interest in her life and career, prompting discussions about her evolving appearance and personal life.
