VENICE, CALIFORNIA: Joe Manganiello has been making headlines recently due to his public appearance with actress Caitlin O’Connor, sparking curiosity about his romantic life following his divorce from Sofia Vergara.

The 46-year-old actor was spotted leaving Gold’s Gym in Venice, California, with Caitlin O’Connor, a much younger actress at 33, less than two months after filing for divorce from his seven-year marriage to the 'Modern Family' star.

Manganiello and Vergara announced their separation on July 17, bringing an end to their seven-year marriage.

In a joint statement, they stated, "We have made the difficult decision to divorce. 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.”

Why did Joe Manganiello and Sofia Vergara split?

Sources close to the couple revealed that they had “been growing apart for a while now," ultimately leading to their decision to separate.

“[They] and are taking some distance from each other to contemplate their future,” the insider shared.

The 'Magic Mike' actor filed for divorce just two days after the announcement, while the 'America's Got Talent' judge requested the enforcement of their prenuptial agreement.

Speculation surrounds the reasons behind their separation, with some sources suggesting it may be related to Manganiello's desire to have children, while Vergara already has a 31-year-old son from her previous marriage Joe Gonzalez.

Why did Sofia Vergara walk off 'AGT' stage?

Nevertheless, reports indicate that Vergara is embracing her newfound single status and "living her best life," spending time with friends and enjoying her independence.

“She’s spending time with her friends after being stifled in a relationship with a largely unsupportive partner,” a source said.

“Sofía was always there to take care of Joe, while his career was never what it was when they met. I think he’s been threatened by her success and joie de vivre,” reported Page Six.
