Sofia Vergara, the former Modern Family star, is currently in Italy celebrating her 51st birthday alongside her best friends. During her birthday trip, she shared makeup-free photos on Instagram, showcasing her picture-perfect face against the backdrop of the water.
While in Italy, she engaged in various activities, including lighting firecrackers as candles, brunching with friends, and receiving a serenade at an exclusive restaurant in honor of her birthday.
However, her husband, Joe Manganiello, was conspicuously absent from the festivities. Reliable sources have now confirmed that the couple is splitting after seven years of marriage, making a joint statement about their decision to divorce. They have requested privacy as they navigate this new phase of their lives.
Despite the breakup, Sofia seems to be enjoying her time in Italy, as evident from her Instagram posts. Fans have noticed Joe’s absence, prompting Sofia to address the matter in a post where she humorously mentioned squeezing lemons when life gives them.
This turn of events comes after Sofia and Joe had been growing apart for some time, leading them to take distance and contemplate their future.
Their relationship began after they met at a White House Correspondents’ Association dinner in 2014 when Sofia was engaged to another man.
However, they quickly formed a trusting bond, characterized by their selflessness in prioritizing each other’s needs.
