Sofía Vergara Is "Enjoying Life" and "So Grateful" Amid Justin Saliman Romance
Aw!


Sofia Vergara is having a great time right now—thanks in part to her newfound romance with surgeon Dr. Justin Saliman.
The actress spoke to Entertainment Tonight after the first live episode of this season's America's Got Talent on Aug. 13, and explained it's "too soon to tell" exactly why her relationship with Saliman is so lovely, but she was full of praise for her life in general.
"I'm enjoying life, I'm so grateful to the people around me," Vergara said. "I'm grateful for summer, for the nomination, and now just for AGT. I'm excited to see Simon, Heidi, all of them!"
Vergara is a judge on AGT alongside Simon Cowell, Heidi Klum, and Howie Mandel.
The Modern Family alum was first spotted with her new love in October, per ET, and in April, she had the cutest words to share about him. Taking to Instagram Stories at the time, Vergara revealed that she'd had knee surgery—but that thankfully she had her handsome surgeon boyfriend to help her with her recovery.
The actress wrote over a photo of Saliman smiling in scrubs, with his hand on her bandaged knee, "If u ever get a mayor [sic] knee surgery make sure u Get a handsome doctor who will sleep with u that night!!!! Luv u Dr @jdsaliman"

The Griselda actress more than deserves her beautiful new romance, since 2023 wasn't an easy time for her. In July, news broke that she was divorcing from her husband of seven years, Joe Manganiello.
