Sofía Vergara and Imagine Dragons’ Dan Reynolds were photographed holding hands after a Beverly Hills dinner, sparking speculation about a budding romance between the Modern Family alum and Reynolds, who also recently went through a highly publicized split from Minka Kelly.
Reynolds has not commented on a potential relationship with Vergara, but their dinner date certainly added fuel to the fire, especially considering Vergara’s ex-husband, Joe Manganiello, recently published a memoir that spilled a lot of TMI details about their marriage.
On CBS Mornings, Manganiello asked people to “Read the book first,” explaining that it’s mostly about hope and survival and not necessarily about his now-defunct marriage.
Vergara, for her part, seemed to brush off questions about Manganiello’s book, smiling and laughing it off.
Though she’s remained mum on specifics, Vergara did take a swipe at her ex-husband’s comments shortly before the memoir’s release, posting an Instagram Story suggesting that no matter how much effort you put into pleasing a narcissist, they will ultimately resent you and cast you as the villain.
Vergara’s ex-husband, Joe Manganiello, detailed some TMI relationship moments in his memoir, Bloodlines: A Memoir, which hit shelves on October 13, 2026.
The book explores his severe, seven-year struggle with a life-threatening autoimmune condition, which he claims was the ultimate catalyst for their separation.
In it, Manganiello alleged that he wasn’t supported during his battle, saying at one point that he was “ridiculed” for adopting a dog while also struggling with suicidal thoughts.
Manganiello also spoke about fatherhood in the book, contradicting Vergara’s claim that they split because she didn’t want kids at her age.
