Sofía Vergara Spotted with Spanish Actor Manuel Vega Amidst Dating Rumours
Hollywood’s beloved comedic talent, Sofía Vergara, has once again found herself in the spotlight, this time due to speculation surrounding her love life. The Modern Family star, aged 53, was recently photographed enjoying a date with Spanish actor Manuel Vega at the iconic Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles.
The pair were captured sharing an affectionate hug as they left the hotel, with Vega planting a sweet kiss on Vergara’s cheek. This sighting has ignited fresh rumours about the Colombian-American actress’s romantic life. Vergara looked effortlessly chic in a brown leather jacket and classic jeans, while Vega opted for a more casual ensemble, sporting a long-sleeved graphic tee, black trousers, and a baseball cap.
A Look Back at Recent Romantic Links
This latest encounter comes after Vergara was previously linked to businessman Douglas Chabbott. Throughout the previous year, the two were seen together on several occasions, displaying public displays of affection. One notable outing included a dinner date in Italy last July, where Chabbott was photographed lifting Vergara into the air and kissing her cheek.
Further fuelling dating rumours, Vergara shared a selfie with Chabbott on Facebook in April 2025, captioning it with a loving, “Luv u @dougchabbott.” The couple also appeared to be quite close on the dance floor during a trip to France, with a viral video clip showing them in what appeared to be an intimate moment before Vergara playfully interrupted the filming.
The Tom Brady Connection and Vergara’s Single Status
In July 2025, Sofía Vergara was also rumoured to be romantically involved with NFL superstar Tom Brady. The two attended the launch of the Luminara Superyacht in Ibiza, Spain, and were seated next to each other. An insider at the time suggested that their seating arrangement was not coincidental, claiming Brady had specifically requested to switch seats to be beside Vergara during dinner.
However, this rumoured romance was never officially confirmed. Vergara herself later addressed the speculation in an interview with a news outlet in October 2025, stating that she was single and enjoying her freedom. She expressed that she wasn’t actively seeking a relationship at that moment but preferred to keep her options open. “I’m single again and having fun,” she told the outlet. “I’m not really looking for anything right now, I’m just trying to have my options open.”
Personal Life and Past Marriages
Vergara’s most recent public marriage was to actor Joe Manganiello. The couple were married from 2015 until their divorce in 2024.
The America’s Got Talent judge has been candid about the reasons behind their separation. In a January 2024 interview, she explained that the age difference and differing desires regarding starting a family played a significant role. “My marriage broke up because my husband was younger; he wanted to have kids and I didn’t want to be an old mom,” she revealed. Vergara, who had her son Manolo at 19, expressed her readiness to become a grandmother rather than a mother again. She emphasized that any future partner would need to come with their own children, as she felt it was not fair to bring another child into the world at her age. She added, “I’m almost in menopause; it’s the natural way of things. When my son becomes a dad, let him bring the baby to me for a while and then I’ll give it back to him and go on with my life; that’s what I have to do.”
As Sofía Vergara navigates her personal life, her public appearances continue to draw attention and fuel conversations about the celebrated actress.
