Sofia Vergara Engaged to Joe Manganiello

Sofia Vergara, 42, is currently vacationing in Hawaii with boyfriend Joe Manganiello, 38, to celebrate both Christmas and Joe's Birthday. On Christmas Day, Manganiello proposed to Vergara in front of her family. The couple started dating in July of this year, shortly after Vergara broke up with Nick Loeb. The Daily Mail has the exclusive pictures of the ring.


Is it in poor taste to start taking bets on whether or not the couple actually makes it down the aisle? I'm just asking. For a friend.

  2. That's the spirit Outtie!!!! Enough of this love crap for goodness sake. Can we have a day where we DONT post stories about cute/happy/fake/staged couples?

    Anyway, I say she rapidly plans the wedding and Joe freaks out. 3 Months tops.

    1. @Gina, if we don't have stories about cute/happy/fake/staged couples, we'll have no couples at all.

  3. Well, they've both been engaged before, so I'm thinking the odds are not in their favor. I'm thinking they'll break up right after Magic Mike XXL comes out :)

    2. Funny how that works or how so many breakups come right after a movie is finished its theatre run.

  4. My mother and father met in February and married in May of that year. They stayed married for over 50 years until her death.

    I'm not sure people these days are as thoughtful about marriage. It's too easy both mentally and legally to end a marriage.

    Vergara and Manganiello are certainly old enough to make sound decisions, but their celebrity status has to deduct at least 10 years off their mental/emotional age. Five months is (generally) a pretty short time for relationships. You're still on your best behavior and so is he. You're still laughing at all his jokes. The things he does are still endearing and cute, but in a few more months, those jokes will be irritating and those same habits will drive you right up a tree. It's all fun and games when he doesn't change the empty toilet paper roll or leaves an empty milk glass to crust up in the sink at first, but soon, very soon...

    1. Exactly Karen. They are (or should be) in the sex multiple times a day, head over heels crazy gaga about each other phase. Personally I think its smart to let that part wear off and go through some not so fun/mundane day to day stuff before getting married.

    2. Omar, you're right. You don't really know what you're getting into until you've argued, resolved differences, compromised, faced a crisis and seen the uglier side of someone. That's the hard stuff. You also have to experience the crazy in love to "you're kind of a jerk" gamut and circle back again.

    3. And that's why I haven't married again or even lived with someone for the last 30 years.

      More importantly, isn't there one L in wonderful?

    4. Well even when our parents were young that was a risky proposition but the attitude towards marriage and divorce was totally different. A lot of guys got married quickly before going off to war in WWII.

      Now people get married without thinking it through because they know they can get divorced and no real social stigma anymore, get divorced if they have the least bit of a rough patch rather than working it through or just living it through to the bitter end even if you are miserable

    5. Don't forget you need to take one vacation together before committing to marriage or try living together.... LOL

  5. Sofia has a child. He doesn't. I hope they are working on baby Manganiello right now. If not, they will most likely follow the Demi -Ashton road map.

    1. Isn't he in his very late teens/early 20s? (Too lazy to Google).

      Joe is a major hottie; I don't know how he puts up with this woman's voice.

  6. I thought smiles were universally flattering until I saw the above picture of Joe.

  7. Something about them is so right and yet I still think it's staged. Either way, they make a beautiful couple.

    1. @CridChild, I'm with you. They're a gorgeous couple yet it's difficult to believe it's real.

  8. Agree with crid- they seem almost too perfect. I doubt they will make it down the aisle, but i dont its something either necessarily wants so its cool.

  9. People forget that phony couples aren't always due to bearding. They can both be straight and still faking it for publicity. This came at a time when they both needed the bump.

  10. Awe, maze. I want them to be real and have bebehs. Can you imagine how perfect their offspring would be?

  11. Lord, I'd like to ride him like a horse... just sayin'.... and sighin'

  13. They were put together because they're both with CAA. She needed some stink off her piece of crap fiance and he needed pr to sustain his post true blood *Career*
    But she has been repeatedly been papped fucking the ex since being with Joe and
    not to mention the constant rumors of him being a gay escort before he landed true blood. The time line between spiderman and true blood is sketchy. He never really talks about how he Paid the bills..

    I give this till after mm2. And after emmys..
    also Snorfia didn't get any golden globe nominations this year nor did modern family
    Her recent Charlie sheen like behavior has not been in her favor. . She needs back in the good graces of Emmy and gg voters..

  15. I liked him in the first couple of seasons of True Blood but then he went all Mr Workout Dude and he was everywhere flexing his muscles and talking about protein shakes and egg white omelettes. I have no patience for people so obsessed with their body and diet that every conversation or interview must have at least one mention of carb loading and cheat days.

    Mazel to the couple, though. I place $20 on the don't make it train.

  16. I've said it before, and I'll say it again. They are both hot/beautiful, but I see no chemistry between them. This is PR at it's "best". VIP and Sugar hit it on the head.... they'll be together until after Magic Mike and award season is over.

  17. AAARRRGGHH.

    one- She overplays her accent. I know a person who worked with her on "Knights of Prosperity" and she DOES NOT TALK like that. Plus, she's a major bitch.

    two- I could have sworn I saw on the Latin Times that she was also pregnant with twins.

    three- I find him skeevy.

    that is all.

  18. I remember when he first started True Blood and he was doing a lot of interviews. I saw him on something (maybe Ellen) and he was going on and on about his (then) fiancée and how they were making wedding plans. Suddenly he blows up on True Blood and I never heard another word about his fiancée. It made it look like he got this blast of fame and he just dumped her. Kind of wondered about what ever happened to her. Plus they have ZERO chemistry. They might be pretty to look at but they don't look legit at all to me, they look totally uncomfortable together and phony.

  19. Their careers will get in the way and the marriage will never take place.

  20. Never let the truth get in the way of a good story.

  21. Doesn't Sofia have that line at Kay's? I bet that ring is on loan. Free ring for a few months for her and the company gets the recognition she brings. Win win. Unless her ring isn't from Kay's. Then my whole theory is shot to hell.
