Discusses Breakup
Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello are addressing conflicting reports about their breakup. Vergara suggested that differing views on having children influenced their split, but Manganiello denied this, saying their separation was due to growing apart. Vergara has expressed doubt about the accuracy of recent media quotes, while both stars have moved on to new relationships.
Speaking with the Spanish publication El País, Vergara hinted that their breakup was partially influenced by Manganiello's wish to have children, a claim he subsequently refuted. In a separate July interview with Men’s Journal, Manganiello clarified that their split was unrelated to disagreements about starting a family.
During an August 14 interview with Variety, Modern Family actress Sofia Vergara expressed uncertainty about the validity of Joe Manganiello’s recent comments. Vergara stated, “Ultimately, you can never be sure if he actually said that. I’ve come across many quotes attributed to me that made me think, ‘What?’ Am I supposed to call him to verify? I have no idea if those words are even his.”
Joe Manganiello, celebrated for his performances in “Magic Mike” and “True Blood,” has addressed recent media speculation about his personal life. In an exclusive interview with Men’s Journal, Manganiello firmly denied reports suggesting he is eager to start a family.
He further explained that the couple had indeed tried to have children early in their marriage, stating, “We did try to have a family for the first year and a half… And I swore to her that I would never leave if it didn’t work out. And I didn’t.”
While acknowledging his desire to have children, Manganiello emphasized that their relationship ultimately ended because they “grew apart,” rather than due to any midlife crisis or ultimatum.
Sofia Vergara, mother to a 32-year-old son, recently shed light on her separation from Joe Manganiello, citing their conflicting perspectives on having children as a pivotal factor. In a candid conversation with El País, Vergara conveyed her enthusiasm for stepping into the role of grandmother rather than pursuing the path of motherhood.
At present, Vergara is involved with an orthopedic surgeon, while Manganiello is romantically linked with actress Caitlin O’Connor. Enthusiasts are keenly observing the evolving dynamics of these new relationships and their potential developments.
