Despite leading a private life, Sophia Diggs' name was thrust into the spotlight because of her relations with some of the Wu-Tang Clan members. Apart from one of them being her brother, she was also romantically involved with Ghostface Killah.
Sophia Diggs became a subject of public interest a few times though she is rarely spoken of by her brother, RZA of Wu-Tang Clan, whose real name is Robert Diggs. She is among the rapper's eleven siblings: eight brothers and three sisters.
Following the release of a Hulu mini-series depicting the early lives of the Wu-Tang Clan members, the actress who played RZA's siblings revealed Diggs's contribution to the show.

However, years before the mini-series production, Diggs was known for her romance with her brother's rap groupmate, Ghostface Killah. The pair reportedly had children and even married. Still, the details around their relationship are shrouded in some mystery.

Until her affiliations with the Wu-Tang Clan members came to light, Diggs led a private life and continued to do so. Part of her story was featured in the Wu-Tang Clan mini-series, "Wu-Tang Clan: An American Saga," and it was portrayed by actress Zolee Griggs.

Griggs's character in the story, Shurrie, represented all of Diggs's siblings, as the production team thought it best not to cast them all. During an interview with Stylecaster, Griggs said she spoke with Diggs to get an insight into her family's dynamic, as she explained:
"So, I was able to speak to Sophia which is one of his sisters. She's really amazing, and she just let me know about the family dynamic and what it was like with him growing up."
