Sofia Vergara’s immense popularity has earned her countless admirers who can’t help but express their awe. Some have playfully remarked, “This woman is 25 years eternally??” and boldly declared her as “Without a doubt, the most beautiful woman in the universe.”
Throughout her birthday trip to Italy, the ex-CoverGirl model has shared a delightful series of Instagram posts documenting her adventures. From enjoying gelato in a car to having brunch with friends, lighting firecrackers as candles, and being serenaded at a fancy restaurant, her celebrations were captured with joy.
Although Sofie’s spouse, Joe Manganiello, was noticeably absent from the festivities, this detail left her fans curious and concerned.
Yet, amidst all the celebrations, Vergara took a moment to extend birthday wishes to her blonde chihuahua, Bubbles. Sharing a picture of Bubbles donning a leopard dress and diving into a pink cake adorned with a pink flamingo, she wrote, “Feliz 10th cumpleaños my sweet, vicious Bubbles! No matter how many times u bite me, I will always love u.”
Heidi Klum joined in, sending her wishes with “Happy Birthday Bubbles from auntie Heidi,” while a fan affectionately joked, “She bites you because you’re sweet!!!” Sofia Vergara’s vibrant spirit and positive outlook make turning 51 look absolutely fabulous. Happy birthday, Sofia, and thank you for sharing the joy with all your fans!
It is with heavy hearts that we must convey the news: after seven years of marriage, Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello have decided to call it quits
While some may find this news surprising, others may have seen it coming and are now. Saying, “I told you so,” upon learning about the breakup of this beloved Hollywood couple. For them, the turning point was Manganiello’s somewhat lackluster birthday wish to his now-estranged wife. Which served as a clear warning sign of their impending separation.
The Instagram post in question appeared to be a standard social media shoutout one might expect for a loved one’s birthday. Manganiello captioned an old photo of himself and Vergara out for dinner with, “¡¡¡Feliz Cumpleaños Sofía!!!”
Observant followers in the comment section immediately sensed that something was amiss. Knowing the vivacious and affectionate nature of the two actors, fans were unconvinced by Manganiello’s message and didn’t hesitate to express their doubts. One perceptive follower pointed out, “Something is off. Cold message for her and has two stories about his dog’s birthday. And Sofia has not even said thank you.” These online detectives proved to be right.
Joe Manganiello’s birthday message to Sofia Vergara on Instagram has caused quite a stir with dozens of comments criticizing its lackluster nature.
Sofia received an unusual and strangely formal greeting from her estranged husband, as he referred to her by her first name. Fans expressed their bewilderment, with one even saying that being addressed by one’s name felt like being scolded. Another fan questioned whether the message was more fitting for a cousin or a coworker.
The stark contrast between this year’s message and Manganiello’s previous birthday posts for Sofia didn’t go unnoticed either. In the past, he would share adorable snapshots of them together. Often using affectionate pet names like “mi amor” in the captions. However, such endearing terms were notably absent in the 2023 birthday post.
Unfortunately, the fans’ suspicions were validated when just a week after the post, the couple officially announced their separation in a statement to Page Six. Despite their deep love and care for each other, they requested privacy as they navigate this new phase in their lives.
