While the split came as a surprise to many, reports soon revealed the main reason: Vergara’s decision not to have more children. Her openness about the reason for their divorce – her not wanting more children – brought attention to Manganiello’s desire to become a father.

Reports have since surfaced suggesting Manganiello wants to start a family with his new girlfriend, but there’s no confirmation on the details of this relationship. Vergara, meanwhile, hasn’t commented on these reports.
