Sofía Vergara enjoyed another date night with her rumored new boyfriend, Justin Saliman, days after her ex-husband Joe Manganiello went Instagram-official with Caitlin O’Connor.
The “Modern Family” alum, 51, and the orthopedic surgeon were snapped exiting Cipriani’s in Beverly Hills, Calif., after their late-night dinner.
Vergara looked chic in a black mini skirt and lace top, which she accented with a white blazer.

The new couple first went public with their romance last October, following her split from Manganiello.
“Sofía is falling for Justin the more she spends time with him,” a source told Us Weekly about the budding relationship at the time.
“They have amazing chemistry, and her friends think they make a wonderful couple.”
The insider added that Vergara’s close-knit group of friends and family think “she seems extra happy since she’s been seeing Justin.”
Saliman was previously married to actress Bree Turner, 46, but the former couple called it quits in 2018 after ten years of marriage and two children.
Vergara and Manganiello, 47, announced their separation in July 2023 after seven years of marriage.
“We have made the difficult decision to divorce,” the exes said in a joint statement at the time. “As two people that love and care for one another very much, we politely ask for respect of our privacy at this time as we navigate this new phase of our lives.”
A source previously told Pvnew that the two had been “growing apart for a while” and were “taking some distance from each other to contemplate their future.”
The marriage’s demise was precipitated by the “Magic Mike” star’s desire to have children.
The “Griselda” star is already a mom to 32-year-old son Manolo, whom she shares with her first ex-husband, Joe Gonzalez.
She was also previously dragged into a protracted court battle over the custody of two frozen embryos from her 2013 IVF treatments with then-fiancé Nick Loeb, who sought to bring them to term.
“My marriage broke up because my husband was younger; he wanted to have kids, and I didn’t want to be an old mom,” Vergara told El Pais in January of why her relationship with Manganiello ended. “I feel it’s not fair to the baby.”
Vergara also stressed at the time that she “respect(s) those who wish to welcome children later in life,” but it is not something she wishes to do.
“I had a son at 19, who is now 32, and I’m ready to be a grandmother, not a mother,” she added.
Meanwhile, Manganiello has turbo-charged his new relationship.
Last week, the “True Blood” alum not only went Instagram-official with O’Connor, 34, but the duo reportedly also moved in together.
