Actors Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello got divorced in July last year. The Modern Family star, in a recent interview with Spanish newspaper El Pais, opened up on the reason behind her divorce from Joe. Sofia Vergara said during the interview, "Well, I'm newly divorced from my second husband [actor Joe Manganiello], who I was with for 10 years. My marriage broke up because my husband was younger, he wanted to have kids and I didn't want to be an old mom. I feel it's not fair to the baby. I respect whoever does it, but that's not for me anymore."
Sofia, who has a son named Manolo with ex-husband Joe Gonzalez, added, "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."
