Sophie McKay is a fictional character on the New Zealand soap opera "Shortland Street".

Sophie McKay is a very pretty, popular sixteen year-old. Settling into Ferndale High has been relatively easy for Sophie, but one person she just couldn't warm to was Scarlett Valentine.

In April 2007, Scarlett's frustrations with the McKay family spilled over and she attempted to run Hunter down in her Dad's SUV and left Ferndale soon after, but the impact on Sophie was much greater. Dealing with the fallout and shock of Scarlett's actions led Sophie to question her own previously shallow life. Following that experience Sophia has become more socially aware. Sophie dated and slept with Nate Adamson but they broke up after he realised he was gay and loved Sophie's brother Hunter McKay. However, the situation was complicated further by the fact that Hunter was in a relationship with Nate's mother.

She is currently single. Her group of friends include Tane Samuels, Wiremu Potae, Tuesday Warner and fellow Japanese exchange student Olive Moronuki.

On August 4 she had a one night stand with Tane, and now he thinks she's his girlfriend.

Sophie must for the time being live a lie and pretend that her mother Justine Jones had been killed in a car explosion set by the ruthless drug company, Scott Spears.
