Sofía Vergara has opened up about the reasons behind her divorce from Joe Manganiello in a recent interview. At 51, Vergara shared that the divergence in their desires to expand their family played a pivotal role in their separation.
The actress explained that the age gap became a significant factor, with Manganiello, at 47, expressing a desire for children while she, already a mother, was not keen on becoming a parent again.

The ‘Griselda’ star voiced her perspective on motherhood, expressing a reluctance to be an older mother, deeming it unfair to the child. Vergara, who already has a 32-year-old son, Manolo, from her previous marriage to Joe Gonzalez, shared her readiness to embrace the role of a grandmother rather than a mother.

She emphasized that if love were to come into her life again, it should come accompanied by a partner with their own children.

Vergara acknowledged being on the brink of menopause and outlined her vision of future family dynamics. She humorously envisioned handing back her future grandchild to her son after spending quality time with the baby. This insightful perspective reflects her pragmatic approach to the evolving chapters of life.
The announcement of Vergara and Manganiello’s divorce in July, after seven years of marriage, was followed by a joint statement requesting privacy during this challenging period. Subsequently, Manganiello filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences, and both have since moved on romantically.
