BBC EastEnders’ Priya Davdra’s glamorous real life – famous friends, rival shows and jet-setting
New EastEnders character Priya Davdra has already caused absolute mayhem in Albert Square, but actress Sophie Khan Levy couldn't be more different from her onscreen counterpart
EastEnders newcomer Priya Davdra has caused uproar on the soap, but actress Sophie Khan Levy lives a very different life off screen.
She’s only been in Albert Square five minutes, but Priya has caused absolute havoc, with her recent smooch with villainous Nish Panesar (Navin Chowdhry) prompting further uproar.
Priya, who shares a daughter with Nish’s son Ravi Gulati (Aaron Thiara), took Nish by surprise after kissing him passionately in the kitchen, just as his wife Suki Panesar (Balvinder Sopal) and their son Vinny Panesar (Shiv Jalota) appeared in the doorway.
Nish swiftly sent Priya packing, but Suki eventually persuaded him to give her a second chance, later admitting her forgiveness was more about her hatred of Nish as opposed to any real mercy for Priya. As Priya navigates some incredibly complicated family dynamics in the Panesar household, we take a look at the real life of actress Sophie, including her glam social life and liking for luxe travel.

Famous pals
It’s unclear whether or not Sophie is currently dating anyone. It’s understood however that the soap star has a fair few famous friends, and she’s even previously been photographed with Bridgerton star Jessica Madsen at a Netflix premiere event for the popular period romance.
Passion for travel
When away from set, it would appear that Sophie has a real wanderlust, and will often keep Instagram followers updated on her luxury travels around the globe. Sophia has previously enjoyed enviable excursions to Tuscany and Montreal, sharing breathtaking snaps from her various sunkissed adventures.

Previous shows
Sophie boasts an impressive CV which lists appearances in a number of impressive shows. Viewers may well recognise Sophie from The Sixth Commandment, a critically acclaimed BBC mini-series based on the real-life gaslighting and deaths of Peter Farquhar and Ann Moore-Martin, starring Timothy Spall and Anne Reid as Peter and Ann. Sophie played Gabrielle Ade in the compelling crime drama, which “follows the deaths of Peter Farquhar and Ann Moore-Martin in the village of Maids Moreton, Buckinghamshire, and the extraordinary events that unfolded in the following years.”
The Warwick University and Guildhall School of Music & Drama has also played Beth in James Corden’s Amazon Prime series Mammals, and Florence Pandhi in the countryside drama All Creatures Great and Small.
