She grew up in a family deeply involved in the entertainment industry — her mother, Angélica Rivera, was an actress and later First Lady of Mexico, and her father, José Alberto Castro, is a well-known telenovela producer.

She has two younger sisters, Fernanda and Regina, with whom she spent much of her childhood in Mexico City. Her family’s professional ties in television meant she was exposed to the world of acting and production from an early age, though she attended regular schooling and entered acting formally in her early teens.

Personal Life

Sofía Castro’s personal life has seen considerable public interest due primarily to her family background.

Since 2019, Sofía has been in a steady relationship with Pablo Bernot, a Mexican businessman and heir to the Bernot restaurant group. They often share photos together on Instagram, though Sofía has stated she prefers to keep much of her private life low-profile.

She has no children and continues to live between Mexico City and Los Angeles, balancing acting work and brand collaborations.
