Sonia Booth has expressed her wishes to not open up to the media about her marriage to footballer Mathew Booth that is in tatters. 

Taking to her Instagram timeline, the author and mother of two shared a message informing her followers and disabled comments on the post. 

“I've declined all requests for interviews regarding my November 7 posts and I will stick to that. I won't comment on/for any publication and broadcasting outlet/channel,” she wrote.

Taking to her Instagram timeline a week ago, Sonia put Matthew on blast for his alleged infidelity in a series of Instagram posts. She hired a private investigator and shared receipts from Valentine's Day 2022 when the alleged affair began. 

Another plot unfolded in the Booth’s household and matrimonial demise after Matthew allegedly followed his wife and "searched" her car. 

In the clip Sonia can be heard screaming at Matthew and calling him a "coward". She said she was sharing the clip as evidence should anything happen to her.

Kanye West's ex-girlfriend Julia Fox weighed in on Matthew's extra-marital affair. 

Julia, who has also taken to social media to speak about her relationship with the American rapper, reacted to a TikTok video breaking down the Booth's “cheesecake saga”.

“We need to normalise publicly outing these men! Silence = protecting them,” she wrote.

In a statement shared with TshisaLIVE, Matthew said: “It is the utmost sadness and disappointment that my wife Sonia Booth resorted to airing these unfounded allegations on all platforms with an intention to tarnish my name without discussing them with me, and without considering the damage  these allegations will cause, especially to our minor children who are in the middle of their final exams and to the Mthombeni-Moller family.”
