[edit] Character's background

He was born on 6 February 1989.

When the Valentine family arrives at their new house they find out that the Burton sisters are still living in the house. Sonny rudely bursts the door down and threatens them into leaving. Unknown to his mother Sonny deals in illegal goods which helps buy him top name brand clothes. Sonny's older brother Calvin senses there's a problem with Sonny and doesn't want him turning into a criminal. When Calvin asks to search Sonny's room, Sonny refuses and tells Calvin that the only reason he got accepted as police officer is because of his skin colour. Sonny was nicknamed 'Ski Boy' by his friends in Hollyoaks due to his love of skiing. Although Sonny was never seen skiing, reference would often be made to him visiting the local dry ski slope. Sonny once received a pair of skiing mittens from his girlfriend Michaela McQueen.

After Jake Dean hit his mum with a car Sonny became even more of a thug and began skiing really violently. Despising the Dean/Osbornes after Jake got off with a three month suspended sentence, two years banned from driving and a fine. He then made it his mission to make Craig Dean's life a misery at school, with the help of Justin Burton. He accompanied Justin to the Students Ball which ended in disaster when Justin beat up Kris Fisher outside.

He entered The Loft's DJ competition and seemed an amazing DJ until Clare put on the CD he left in the machine which revealed Sonny was only pretending to DJ. He was disqualified and John Paul McQueen went on to win the competition instead. He stays off school to work for Warren at The Loft with Justin, earning £100 for doing several tasks, but Calvin found out and gave him an ultimatum. Stay at school or leave the house? Sonny chose to stay at home after stealing Jake's car with baby Charlie inside. He felt guilty afterwards. Sonny began going out with sister Sasha's best mate Michaela McQueen, but they have not told anyone of their relationship yet. Sonny had been telling his mate Wayne that he was sleeping with Michaela's attractive older sister Mercedes, instead of admitting he was going out with Michaela. He also lied to Michaela about the reasons he wouldn't tell Wayne of their relationship, stating that Wayne was still in love with Michaela from their previous relationship, which couldn't be any less true. Michaela then went and talked to Wayne, believing that he still had feelings for her. Wayne put Michaela straight and told her of Sonny's lies that he had been seeing Mercedes instead of her.

Sonny was then lured to the McQueens household by Michaela. Michaela then asked Sonny if he would sleep with her and Sonny agreed. Michaela went to the bathroom for condoms, while she was in 'the bathroom', sister Mercedes came down the stairs in her underwear. Mercedes then pretended she had sexual feelings for Sonny and took some of his clothes off. She then began to insult him and whilst chucking him out the house, warned him never to treat her sister in the way he had again. On girlfriend Michaela's 16th birthday, Sonny got arrested by brother Calvin for shoplifting, but was later cautioned, He also lost his virginity to Michaela on the same day. Calvin's arresting him for shoplifting made him feel hurt and angry so he decided to move to Scotland and live with his aunt Adeola.

It is unknown whether Sonny knows of his half-brother & sister, or what his reaction was upon learning of them.
