Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello Dating Rumors: True Blood Star Is New Beau?
Recent rumors peg Colombian actress Sofia Vergara in a relationship together with True Blood's actor Joe Manganiello. Sources say that the two had met during the White House Correspondents' Dinner, in Washington, but could not act on their initial feelings for each other.
Page Six claims that Vergara attended the dinner with her then-fiancé Nick Loeb, who was there through his Onion Crunch Condiments Company.
Since then Modern Family's Vergara has dropped Nick Loeb for another man, apparently Joe Manganiello.
A photo of the alleged couple has been circulating social media for the past few days wherein Vergara was seen cozily dining with Manganiello at a cafe in New Orleans. The photo showed the two all smiles while while enjoying their Cajun cuisine.
The Colombian actress is currently in New Orleans for the filiming of the Don't Mess With Texas movie, together with co-star Reese Witherspoon.
Manganiello has earlier confessed his interest in Sofia in the latest issue of People Magazine, while Jesse Tyler Ferguson jokingly claiming on Twitter that he first dated Manganiello before he started going out with Vergara.
Vergara received her first big break in the movie Big Trouble in 2002, and has since sealed her stardom in 2009 through the comedy series Modern Family where she has received four Emmy nominations.
She was engaged to American businessman Nick Loeb, son of John Loeb, from July of 2012 to May of this year. They were together intermittently for four years before they separated this year.
Manganiello, on the other hand, had actress Audrie Marie for his betrothed in 2010, and was last in a relationship with model Bridget Peters, whom he dated for more than a year.
Manganiello is best known for his role in the HBO drama series, True Blood, as the werewolf Alcide Harveaux. He is also a director and producer and attended Carnegie Mellon University where he holds a BFA in acting.
