Biography
When Sökol was still a toddler, her parents (Michael "Happy" Sokol and Magdalena Cuillery) divorced and her mother married the billionaire Fernando Diez Barroso, an executive of Televisa and one of the richest men in Mexico. From that moment her name changed to Sasha Diez because Barroso legally adopted her. She studied at the Colegio Peterson and later at the Centro de Educación Artística (CEA) of Televisa. At that time, the music and television producer Luis de Llano Macedo was seeking to create a Mexican version of the band Parchís, and Sökol held castings at the CEA.
Sökol has one older brother named Michel Sokol Cuilleri, a half-brother named Taylor Sokol, a half-sister Ashley Sokol, and two step-sisters: Alexandra and Ximena Diez Barroso.
