Sofia Franklyn once went viral for claiming that she expects to know a man’s bank account number on a first date

Back in 2023, Sofia Franklyn went viral for her comments on how she approaches relationships and dating, and admitted that she considers a man’s financial details as an important factor while starting a new relationship. As per Daily Mail, Franklyn confessed to Leo Skepi during a podcast episode and said,

“I've asked the last three dudes I've dated for their bank account info on the first date…I think, you know, I have a job, I'm very successful. So I think I have every f***ing right to be like, ‘Hi, are we on the same level or am I wasting my time?’”

At the time, Franklyn, according to Daily Mail, emphasized that she is concerned about her prospective partner’s financial situation because she has started to show a seriousness about her relationships. She added,

“I'm 30 - I'm not really trying to just date and f**k around.”

A year later, Franklyn addressed her viral comments during a conversation with People Magazine, and while saying that she stand by her words, remarked,

“I do want to give it a little bit of context. I don't see anything wrong with it. I will say, I ask it in a certain tone - I'm laughing. So if they are like, ‘You're obviously joking,’ then I'll be laughing, ‘No, I'm not,’ so that I don't 100 percent freak them out, but it will open conversation. I'll be like, ‘Well, why not? What are you hiding?’”

Now, Sofia Franklyn seems to have found her love. But she is still keeping her husband-to-be’s identity under wraps.
