Back in 2014, the 46-year-old actor had a brief connection with Vergara. In an interview with Haute Living in 2015, Joe Manganiello shared that they dated for approximately six months, expressing that they knew right away that they were meant for each other.
However, the specific cause behind the separation of this beloved Hollywood couple is still unknown and yet to be revealed.
On the other hand, this isn't the first challenging phase that Sofia Vergara has experienced in her personal life. Previously, she tied the knot with Joe Gonzalez, a childhood lover, in 1991 when she was only eighteen years old. With her attractive features and appealing physique, Vergara started to make a name for herself in the modeling industry. Despite Joe Gonzalez's busy schedule, Sofia occasionally joined him on trips to spend time together.
However, over time, the gap between the childhood sweethearts grew wider, ultimately leading them to make the "painful" decision to separate, as reported by The Things. In 1993, the couple officially called it quits. Surprisingly, their divorce didn't create animosity between them, as they managed to maintain a good relationship. In fact, Sofia Vergara stated in a 2011 Parade interview that they were still close friends and that Joe Gonzalez would stay with her when he visited the United States.
On the other hand, Joe Gonzalez moved on and remarried, having two more children. Despite the split, Sofia Vergara and Joe Gonzalez share a son together. It is worth mentioning that following her divorce, the actor achieved significant success, including her notable role in the highly acclaimed sitcom Modern Family.
The reasons behind Sofia Vergara's split from Joe Gonzalez and her subsequent separation from Joe Manganiello remain undisclosed, leaving fans and the public curious about the details surrounding these significant events in her personal life.
