Sofia and Justin Saliman  having A romantic evening at Catch steakhouse in West Hollywood, proving that Vergara is truly embracing the joy of post-divorce dating.

Sofía Vergara seems to be absolutely thriving post-divorce.

Bidding adieu to Joe Manganiello after a seven-marriage, she’s now painting the town red with her new flame, orthopedic surgeon Justin Saliman. The pair were spotted leaving Catch steakhouse, and let’s just say, the sparks weren’t just flying off the grill.

Last July, Vergara and Manganiello announced their decision to part ways. “We have made the difficult decision to divorce,” they shared in a heartfelt statement. “As two people that love and care for one another very much, we politely ask for respect of our privacy at this time as we navigate this new phase of our lives.” It was a moment that reminded us all that love stories, even the most glamorous ones, can face unexpected endings.

But as they say, when one door closes, another opens – or in Vergara’s case, a fancy steakhouse door. “It’s only been six months,” she said while talking to Daily Mail, reflecting on her journey since the split before humorously adding, “So now I need a husband!” Quickly correcting herself, she said, ” No, I don’t need a husband, I want one. It doesn’t even have to be a husband. A partner.”

r. Justin Saliman has seemingly swept Sofía Vergara right off her feet. The duo first captured hearts — and headlines — during a cozy dinner in Santa Monica back in October 2023. They didn’t stop there; an intimate outing at the Frequency Exhibition at Christie’s marked a serious step in their relationship. Their latest rendezvous? A romantic evening at Catch steakhouse in West Hollywood, proving that Vergara is truly embracing the joy of post-divorce dating.

Vergara, ever the style icon, dazzled in a turquoise silk jumpsuit. Saliman, not to be outdone, looked sharp and smitten by her side. (See photos HERE.) It’s clear that Vergara is not just moving on; she’s gracefully pirouetting into this new chapter of her life, with Saliman seemingly playing the role of a perfect partner as she navigates dating post-divorce.

“I’m open to having fun and meeting people,” Vergara noted to Daily Mail. It looks like Vergara is sticking to this mantra, embracing her new romance with Saliman without any unnecessary pressure.
