The talented reporter was born to a Cuban mother Estela Lucrecia and an Australian father Edward Ephram O’Brien.
Her parents first met while they were studying at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore in the year 1958.
It was love at first sight for Soledad’s father and he would ask her every day to her mother if she would like a ride home.
Her mother always used to answer no but one day she accepted the request and their love story begin.
It may sound not a big deal in today’s ear but back then it was a big thing and interracial marriage was illegal in Maryland where a white person was not allowed to marry a black person.
However, when you are in love nothing can stop you. In 1958, her parents drove to Washington, D.C. to get married and later on came back to Baltimore.
