Did Sofía Vergara Date Tom Brady?
Sofía Vergara hung out with Tom Brady last summer.
In July 2025, the TV star was also rumored to be dating Tom Brady. The celebs attended the launch of the Luminara Superyacht in Ibiza, Spain, and sat next to each other.
“Their cozy-looking seating arrangement wasn’t happenstance,” an insider shared. “He asked to switch seats to sit next to her at dinner.”
However, the romance was never confirmed, and Vergara later clarified that she was not dating anyone.
"I’m single again and having fun,” she told a news outlet in an October 2025 interview. “I’m not really looking for anything right now, I’m just trying to have my options open.”
Sofía Vergara Split From Ex-Husband Joe Manganiello
Sofía Vergara was previously married to Joe Manganiello from 2015 to 2024.
The America’s Got Talent judge was previously married to Joe Manganiello from 2015 to 2024.
“My marriage broke up because my husband was younger; he wanted to have kids and I didn’t want to be an old mom,” she explained in a January 2024 interview. “I feel it’s not fair to the baby. I respect whoever does it, but that’s not for me anymore. I had a son at 19, who is now 32, and I’m ready to be a grandmother, not a mother. So, if love comes along, he has to come with [his own] children. I’m almost in menopause; it’s the natural way of things. When my son becomes a dad, let him bring the baby to me for a while and then I’ll give it back to him and go on with my life; that’s what I have to do.”
