AceShowbiz - Sofia Vergara is living her life to the fullest, enjoying time with the people who matter most to her. The Emmy-nominated actress and "America's Got Talent" judge recently walked the carpet after the first live show of season 19 and couldn't help but share her excitement and gratitude.

Vergara's recent romantic getaway to Italy with sports doctor Justin Saliman has fans buzzing. Their relationship, which began in October 2023, barely three months after her split with Joe Manganiello, appears to be thriving. "I'm enjoying life, I'm so grateful to the people around me," Vergara, 52, expressed with a smile. "I'm grateful for summer, for the nomination, and now just for "AGT".

Vergara shared how her relationship with Saliman has been filled with joy and mutual appreciation. "I'm enjoying life, and I'm so grateful to the people around me," she said. After finalizing her divorce from Manganiello in April 2024, it seems Vergara has wholeheartedly embraced this new chapter. Sources close to her reveal that the actress and Saliman genuinely love each other's company and share a natural chemistry, whether they are alone or with friends.

While Vergara has been embracing her personal life, her professional achievements are also reaching new heights. The "Modern Family" alum received an Emmy nomination for her role in "Griselda", portraying a notorious real-life drug lord. "I am so thankful because, you know, it was a lot of work and it was something that was so new for me," Vergara shared. "I thought the show was gonna get nominated, I wasn't expecting a nomination for me, so I'm very thankful."

The contrast between her life now and her previous relationship with Manganiello is stark. Vergara's time with Manganiello, who has been sober for over two decades but wasn't a fan of her more social lifestyle, ended with both simply growing apart. "Two people grew apart, and sometimes that happens," Manganiello shared. Now, he is also moving on and dating former boxing ring girl Caitlin O'Connor.

As Vergara continues to shine on and off the screen, her fans are eagerly celebrating her happiness and professional achievements. Her journey from overcoming a stifling relationship to now living her best life is nothing short of inspiring.
