The daughter of actor Adrian Hough, Sophie decided to be an actress when she was three years old and after two years of negotiations with her reluctant parents, and them, even trying to get former child superstar Donny Osmond to dissuade her, she finally prevailed and got her first job in The Pilot's Wife. It was a wonderful experience working with Christine Lahti who inspired Sophie to want to be the best she can be in all she does.

A few commercials followed and then her parents: the actor Adrian Hough and former British talent agent Marina Darling, moved the family to Vancouver Island, British Columbia. On the west coast Sophie worked opposite Patrick Dempsey in Lucky Seven, played Amber in The Amber Alert Story and completed a role in Neil LaBute's Wickerman with Nick Cage. Credits Include: Intelligence, The Wickerman, Lucky Seven, The Pilots Wife, Amber and Nichole.
