Personal Life
Sobieski speaks fluent French, which she learned from her father, who currently lives in France.
In January 2009, Sobieski began dating her future husband, fashion designer Adam Kimmel. The couple announced their engagement on July 17, 2009. In December 2009, Sobieski gave birth to a baby girl, Louisanna, in a New York City hospital. The couple were married in Italy on August 31, 2010.
During an interview, Sobieski spoke about her views on having happiness and a positive attitude: "I think that happiness is a very strange thing. And we really feel that we have a right to this happiness. But I feel like it's constantly fluctuating, and that you can make yourself happy. I think it's an outlook. Having a positive attitude probably sounds like a corny thing to say, but a positive attitude really helps, and respecting your job really helps, and having the support of your family and friends really helps."
Sobieski, in a 2001 interview with IGN, spoke about her thoughts on if the movies she was doing were escapist or that they had a message for society: "Joy Ride isn't a film you would make a statement with. It's a fun, jump out of life film. That's great. I love those films. Those films are great in times like these too. You can make a point with a film and help society or not. Take a film like Bulworth, a fantastic film. There are certain films like that, that can appeal to everybody and have a message in it and that's really great."

“Behind all their personal vanity, women themselves always have an impersonal contempt—for “woman.””
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
