Sofía Vergara revealed that she didn’t want to be an «old mom» in her marriage to Joe Manganiello, admitting that it wouldn’t have been «fair to the baby.»
Sofía Vergara is confirming that Joe Manganiello’s desire to have children led to their divorce.
“My marriage broke up because my husband was younger; he wanted to have kids, and I didn’t want to be an old mom,” the actress, 51, recently told El País.
“I feel it’s not fair to the baby.”
The “Modern Family” star made sure to note that although she “respect[s]” those who wish to welcome children later in life, the path is just “not for [her] anymore.”
“I had a son at 19, who is now 32, and I’m ready to be a grandmother, not a mother,” she explained of Manolo Gonzalez Vergara, whom she shares with her first husband, Joe Gonzalez.
“I’m almost in menopause; it’s the natural way of things,” she said, adding, “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.
