Sofía Vergara and her boyfriend Justin Saliman had a stylish date night in Los Angeles.

Vergara, who is 51 years old, was seen with the orthopedic surgeon outside Giorgio Baldi restaurant on Friday, March 29. She chose ripped jeans, platform heels, a sparkly blazer, and silk camisole for a casual yet chic date night outfit. Saliman, aged 49, opted for brown trousers paired with a black shirt and coat.

Less than a week after enjoying a night out at Catch steakhouse, the couple was spotted at another popular Hollywood spot.

Their frequent date nights suggest that their relationship is thriving even after being together for over five months. This is Vergara's first public relationship since her divorce from Joe Manganiello in July 2023, following seven years of marriage.

"We have decided to get a divorce," they announced together in a statement. They requested privacy as they move forward in this new chapter of their lives, emphasizing their love and care for each other.

According to a source, Vergara and the True Blood actor were not on the same page about their relationship. They spent less time together as they had different preferences - she preferred going out with friends while he preferred staying at home. This led to them living separate lives for about a year before deciding to end their relationship.

She later shared that the main reason for their separation was their differing views on having children. In an interview with Spanish newspaper El País in January, she mentioned that her second marriage, which lasted for a decade, ended because her husband was younger and wanted kids, while she did not want to start a family at an older age.

She explained that she believes it wouldn't be fair to the child if she became a parent again at her age. Although she respects those who choose to have children later in life, she personally feels that she is now at a stage where she is more prepared to be a grandmother rather than a mother. She had her first child, a son named Manolo, when she was 19, and now that he is 32, she feels ready to embrace the role of a grandmother.

In September 2023, Manganiello began dating Caitlin O'Connor while Vergara and Saliman started their relationship in October.

In October 2023, a source revealed exclusively to Us that there is a strong attraction between Vergara and Saliman. The source mentioned that Saliman is her type, having moved in similar social circles as Sofia for years. Saliman is not intimidated by her celebrity status and is known for his sense of humor and intelligence. Additionally, he is described as a total gentleman who treats Sofia with the utmost respect. Sofia is looking forward to seeing where their relationship will lead.

One month later, it became evident that Vergara and Saliman's relationship was more than just a casual fling. According to an insider who spoke exclusively to Us in November, Sofía is developing deeper feelings for Justin as they spend more time together. They have a strong connection, and her friends believe they are a great match.

Vergara's close circle of friends have noticed that she appears particularly happy since she started dating Justin. The source mentioned that they appreciate how he treats her with respect and kindness, regardless of her celebrity status. Justin has his own interests and genuinely likes Sofía for who she is.
