It’s been less than a year since Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello shared the news that they were getting a divorce, and a lot has happened for both of them since then.

The actress finally commented on suspicions that her husband wanted to have kids, but she wasn’t on the same page.
After becoming single, they each found different ways to move on. Joe Manganiello got together with actress and host Caitlin O’Connor, and the relationship seems to be in a very good place. Reportedly, they are ready to take it to the next level. Sofia Vergara, for her part, was briefly linked to ex-boyfriend Justin Saliman, but it was short-lived, as she wanted to keep her options open.
Joe Manganiello And Caitlin O’Connor Are Getting Serious
Joe Manganiello has been moving on since his divorce to Sofia Vergara. In July 2023, they announced they were amicably splitting, and just a couple of months later, Joe and Caitlin O’Connor made their relationship official. Although at first they were inclined to keep it casual, it now seems they are “very much in love”, and a source recently shared that they are moving in together.
Even so, the actress, who is significantly younger than Joe (34 to his 47 years), is reportedly still keeping her own house, which is a good move, since they have only been together for a few months.

Sofía Vergara reflected on how she navigated the process of going through a divorce and moving on from it in the public eye.
It’s not a surprise that Joe Manganiello is moving on, since one of the reasons he and Sofia Vergara split up was because they had different expectations from their marriage. Joe wanted to be a father, while Sofia Vergara had no interest in having any more children.
Still, Caitlin O’Connor has not spoken about what the plans are for the couple, but it seems that, for the moment, they are going strong. Even Joe’s dog, Bubbles, seems to be smitten with Caitlin.
Sofia Vergara Is Enjoying Being Single
While Joe Manganiello is focused on moving on with his new relationship, Sofia Vergara is living her happiest single life. She was linked to Justin Saliman for a couple of months after the divorce was announced, but she made it clear that she wasn’t looking for anything serious.
“There is still a spark between Justin and Sofia, but Sofia likes being considered single and ready to mingle, she doesn’t want to settle with anyone,” a source shared, announcing that they were not a couple anymore.
Nowadays, completely unattached, Sofia Vergara is looking forward to enjoying a pressure-free dating life. In fact, she plans to spend more time in New York to get the most of it.
“I love it. Who doesn’t love New York City? The people, it’s the energy. I think that you have more options with men, also,” she said. “I’m single now, so in New York there are more people. There’s not only actors or writers or directors, I think there’s a bigger [pool]. I’m going to spend more time in New York.”
Despite their divorce, it seems Joe Manganiello and Sofia Vergara are on good terms. Although it was initially difficult for her when she found out, when asked recently about what the actress thought of her ex-husband’s new relationship, a source said that she “wishes Joe the best.” The insider also said that “his relationship with Caitlin doesn’t faze” her because she’s focused on other things.
All in all, it seems they both moved on in their own ways and are living the life they want.
