Sofia Vergara and Justin Saliman Have a Romantic Evening Out in Los Angeles

Sofía Vergara, 51, and boyfriend Justin Saliman had a stylish date night in LA. They were seen outside Giorgio Baldi restaurant on Friday, March 29. 

She wore ripped jeans, platform heels, a sparkly blazer, and a silk camisole for a casual date night look. He dressed in brown trousers, a black shirt, and coat. 

This outing follows their recent visit to Catch steakhouse. The ongoing date nights suggest that the couple is still going strong after more than five months together. 

This is Vergara's first public relationship since divorcing Joe Manganiello in July 2023 after seven years of marriage. "We have decided to divorce. We kindly request respect for our privacy as we go through this new phase of our lives." 

Vergara and the True Blood alum were no longer on the same page about their relationship. She preferred going out with friends while he preferred staying home, resulting in limited time spent together. "They've been living separately for a year, so it was time to end things. She confirmed that the kids were the main reason for their breakup." 

"I recently divorced my second husband of 10 years because he was younger," she told El País in January. "He desired kids, but I didn't want to be an older mom. It's unfair to the baby." "Respect to those who choose it, but it's no longer my path," she explained. "Having had a son at 19, who is now 32, I'm eager to embrace the role of grandmother rather than parent." "(She had a son named Manolo in 1991 with her ex Joe Gonzalez.) 

Manganiello began dating Caitlin O'Connor in September 2023, while Vergara and Saliman started dating in October." “They are attracted to each other and he fits her preferences,” a source divulged in October 2023. “He has socialized with Sofía for a long time, so her fame doesn't intimidate him at all." 

Sofía is attracted to his humor, intelligence, and respectful demeanor. A month later, it became evident that Vergara and Saliman had more than a fling. "Sofía is increasingly attracted to Justin as they spend more time together," an insider revealed in November. "Their chemistry is off the charts, and her friends believe they are a perfect match." 

Vergara's friends believe she's happier lately with Justin. They appreciate how he treats her with respect and doesn't care about her fame. He's into her for who she is.
