Sofia Vergara Undergoes Major Surgery Amid Post-Divorce Changes

Sofia Vergara, the Modern Family star, recently had major knee surgery. Despite her usual positive attitude, the 51-year-old actress found the recovery painful.

Life After Divorce

This medical challenge happened after Vergara’s divorce from Joe Manganiello, just a few months ago. Despite the tough times, she is supported by her son, actor Manolo Gonzalez Vergara, and her new boyfriend, Dr. Justin Saliman.

Sofia Vergara shared her experience on social media, highlighting her gratitude for her partner. “If you ever get a [major] knee surgery, make sure u get a handsome doctor who will sleep with u that night!!! Luv u Dr @jdsaliman,” she wrote on Instagram, posting a photo of Dr. Saliman by her side as she rested on a couch. In another post, she referred to him as her “favorite nurse,” indicating he has been a crucial part of her recovery process.

Adjusting to Recovery

Despite her upbeat posts, Sofia Vergara admits the recovery hasn’t been easy. She was recently seen heading to lunch at Cecconi’s in West Hollywood, visibly limping. When asked by paparazzi about her condition, she humorously responded, “Not good!” Vergara, however, seemed to be in good spirits, laughing as she navigated her way into the restaurant with a friend.

Vergara remains active on Instagram, sharing updates and keeping fans engaged. She has prerecorded episodes for the 19th season of America’s Got Talent, set to premiere on May 28, 2024. While the recovery from her knee surgery will take time, her fans are encouraged to see her in good spirits and on the mend.
