Post-Surgery Affection: Sofia Vergara’s New Love Amidst Divorce
Vergara publicly acknowledged her relationship with Saliman in October, following her separation from ex-husband Joe Manganiello after seven years of marriage. Saliman, previously married to actress Bree Turner, shares two children with her, from whom he divorced in 2018.
Vergara and Manganiello, both 47, announced their separation in July, emphasizing their mutual love and requesting privacy as they transitioned into this new chapter of their lives.
Reflecting on her divorce in January, Vergara attributed the split to differing desires regarding children, stating, “He wanted to have kids, and I didn’t want to be an old mom.”
Vergara, already a mother to 32-year-old son Manolo from her previous marriage to Joe Manganiello, has moved forward from the divorce. Meanwhile, Manganiello has found companionship with Caitlin O’Connor, with whom he moved in together in February, coinciding with the finalization of his divorce from Vergara.
