Tragic information regarding actress Sofia Vergara validates our collective fears.
The star of Modern Family Sofia Vergara recently celebrated her 51st birthday. While her fans were thrilled for her and the fun she had with her closest friends, they couldn’t help but notice that her husband Joe Manganiello wasn’t in the pictures. Their suspicions about his absence increased when the actress wrote, “When life gives u lemons u come to Italy to squeeze them,” as a caption for one of the posts.
With a blurry picture of the couple and the remark, “¡¡¡Feliz Cumpleaños Sofía!!!”—which many branded “cold”—Jose did wish his wife a very happy birthday.
When they announced they were divorcing after almost eight years, it tragically verified the rumors that their relationship wasn’t at its finest.

In November 2015, Sofia and Joe exchanged vows in a grandiose wedding on Palm Beach. Along with Manganiello’s True Blood co-stars Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer, the 400 guests on their guest list included Vergara’s co-stars from Modern Family, Ariel Winter, Ed O’Neill, Eric Stonestreet, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Julie Bowen, Sarah Hyland, and Ty Burrell. Reese Witherspoon and Channing Tatum were among the other A-list celebrities in attendance.
In 2014, when she was engaged to businessman Nick Loeb, they had their first meeting at a White House Correspondent Association dinner. After a few weeks, she ended her relationship with Nick and became involved with Joe after he requested for her number.
In reference to their encounter, Joe remarked, “I knew pretty quickly that I could trust her, and she knew pretty quickly that she could trust me,” in an interview from 2020. Furthermore, we are both the types of individuals that can put the needs of another person above our own. “I could prioritize her desires over mine, no matter what they were,” he continued. “She could do the same.” You never let go of it once you have it.
In a heartbreaking statement to PageSix on Monday, the pair revealed their intention to split, stating, “We have made the difficult decision to divorce.”
In their statement, they said, “As two people who genuinely love and care for one another, we kindly request respect of our privacy at this time as we navigate this new phase of our lives.”
“Sofía and Joe have been growing apart for a while now and are taking some distance from each other to contemplate their future,” a source close to the pair stated. “Those close to Sofia were explaining away Joe’s absence at the beginning of her big birthday trip with the excuse that he was busy filming back on the East Coast; that excuse barely held up due to the writers strike, but once the actor’s strike took effect, he could have been on the first flight,” another source continued. and it is obvious that he is not.
Therefore, nobody who is with her is even making an effort to act as though it’s still going on. It’s finished. It’s over,” they said.

I Enlisted a Pretend Partner for Our Family Meal – It Became the Most Rewarding Choice of My Life
Family gatherings were the worst for Lara, especially since her sister, Emily, began to make fun of her love life, or lack thereof. Determined to sit through her father’s birthday dinner, Lara decides to hire a boyfriend for the night. Little did she know that a romantic comedy would play out.
I love my family, but family gatherings used to be a nightmare for me. Every single time we got together, my sister Emily would find some way or the other to poke fun at my single life.
Last Thanksgiving, she took it too far and even set a place at the table for my “imaginary boyfriend,” complete with a hand-drawn face on a napkin. Everyone around the table laughed while I forced a smile.
“It’s funny, Lara!” she would say whenever I brought up the incident.
It was anything but funny.
Now, my father’s birthday is coming up, and of course, it was to be celebrated with a family dinner.
“There’s no way I can sit through another one of those events with my family,” I told my friend, Kate, when we met for coffee.
“I’m telling you now, Emily probably has something up her sleeve already,” I grumbled.
“Then just hire someone out for the night!” Kate chuckled, adding sugar to her coffee.
“Hire a man?” I exclaimed.
“Yes! My sister did it through an agency. She didn’t want to go to her ex-boyfriend’s wedding by herself, so she found the agency. Look, it’s all above board and the guys do exactly what you need them to do.”
“It’s not… sleazy?” I asked, trying to think of a better word.
“No, Lara,” she giggled. “And you know my sister. She’s so prim and proper! She wouldn’t have gone ahead with it if she didn’t think that everything was legitimate.”
Which is how I ended up hiring a date to the family gathering. I found Jake through the same agency that Kate’s sister used. He was charming, easy to talk to, and seemed to understand exactly what I needed.
We met a few times before the dinner to get our story straight, because the last thing I wanted was Emily to get wind of something fishy.
“So, the story is that we met at a mutual friend’s party, hit it off over their dog, and have been dating for three months,” Jake said, grinning. “Sounds about right.”
“Look, any story involving myself and a dog are winners,” I replied, opening our Chinese takeout for dinner.
“And I’m an architect with a passion for cooking, right?” he confirmed.
