Tragic information regarding actress Sofia Vergara validates our collective fears.
The star of Modern Family Sofia Vergara recently celebrated her 51st birthday. While her fans were thrilled for her and the fun she had with her closest friends, they couldn’t help but notice that her husband Joe Manganiello wasn’t in the pictures. Their suspicions about his absence increased when the actress wrote, “When life gives u lemons u come to Italy to squeeze them,” as a caption for one of the posts.
With a blurry picture of the couple and the remark, “¡¡¡Feliz Cumpleaños Sofía!!!”—which many branded “cold”—Jose did wish his wife a very happy birthday.
When they announced they were divorcing after almost eight years, it tragically verified the rumors that their relationship wasn’t at its finest.

In November 2015, Sofia and Joe exchanged vows in a grandiose wedding on Palm Beach. Along with Manganiello’s True Blood co-stars Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer, the 400 guests on their guest list included Vergara’s co-stars from Modern Family, Ariel Winter, Ed O’Neill, Eric Stonestreet, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Julie Bowen, Sarah Hyland, and Ty Burrell. Reese Witherspoon and Channing Tatum were among the other A-list celebrities in attendance.
In 2014, when she was engaged to businessman Nick Loeb, they had their first meeting at a White House Correspondent Association dinner. After a few weeks, she ended her relationship with Nick and became involved with Joe after he requested for her number.
In reference to their encounter, Joe remarked, “I knew pretty quickly that I could trust her, and she knew pretty quickly that she could trust me,” in an interview from 2020. Furthermore, we are both the types of individuals that can put the needs of another person above our own. “I could prioritize her desires over mine, no matter what they were,” he continued. “She could do the same.” You never let go of it once you have it.
In a heartbreaking statement to PageSix on Monday, the pair revealed their intention to split, stating, “We have made the difficult decision to divorce.”
In their statement, they said, “As two people who genuinely love and care for one another, we kindly request respect of our privacy at this time as we navigate this new phase of our lives.”
“Sofía and Joe have been growing apart for a while now and are taking some distance from each other to contemplate their future,” a source close to the pair stated. “Those close to Sofia were explaining away Joe’s absence at the beginning of her big birthday trip with the excuse that he was busy filming back on the East Coast; that excuse barely held up due to the writers strike, but once the actor’s strike took effect, he could have been on the first flight,” another source continued. and it is obvious that he is not.
Therefore, nobody who is with her is even making an effort to act as though it’s still going on. It’s finished. It’s over,” they said.

Joan van Ark was born on June 16, 1943, in New York City, New York. Her parents were not connected to the film industry.
When Joan was a teenager acting in Denver, she met actress Julie Harris, and their lives would never be the same.
Julie pushed her to go to the highly regarded Yale Drama School and gain admission using a scholarship she had also set up.
This made Joan Van Ark the second-ever woman to enroll at the Drama School
She [Harris] wrote to the dean and asked him to meet me. “Long story short, my parents drove me to New Haven, Connecticut, to meet the dean, who gave me a scholarship,” Joan recalled.” It was meant to be.” Joan went on to perform in the theatre for a few years, but her real passion was in Television.
Temperature’s Rising, Spider-Woman, and Days of Our Lives
Joan achieved enormous renown as a result of her roles in Temperature’s Rising, Spider-Woman, Days of Our Lives, and even one Bonanza episode. But her role as Valene Ewing on Dallas in 1978 was where she first achieved great popularity. She ended up playing the most important role she has ever had.
Because of how popular the show was, Joan appeared on its spin-off, Knots Landing. a program that was actually written prior to Dallas. Dallas was initially chosen by the producers because it was the best option for portraying affluent households at the time. Joan was then forced to play the same part in Dallas instead of joining the Knots Landing cast.
13 Seasons of Knots Landing ensued for Joan Van Ark
The person who actually convinced Joan to accept the part while already working on two other projects was her husband, renowned newscaster John Marshall. There was a moment when Val Ewing’s mother was scheduled to make her television debut. Surprise, surprise—Julie Harris was chosen for the position. The person who mattered the most to her in all the world was this.
“When the producers told me they had finally last someone to play my mother, I held my breath,” she recalled in a 1984 interview with Florida Today. “I thought, ‘Oh my God, are they going to say Phyllis Diller or Zsa Zsa Gabor, or who?’ Then they said it was Julie Harris, and I went right through the roof. I couldn’t believe they had picked her to be my mother. They didn’t even know we were friends.”
327 Episodes later, Joan Van Ark was ready for new ventures
13 Seasons and 327 episodes later, Joan left a season before the show saw its final season air. She knew many blamed her leaving on the cancellation of the show, but she was ready for new adventures. “I have loved more than life the 13 years I’ve had on that show,” she said. “[Knots Landing creator] David Jacobs is a great influence on my life, has taught me so much about so many things.”
“Ted [Shackelford] is the other half of every breath I take on the show, and personally, he’s a large part of my heart. The people are my family–we have shared marriages, deaths, and divorces. It’s far more difficult to leave than I thought.” Joan thereafter appeared on The Young and The Restless as Gloria Fisher.
In high school, John Marshall first met Joan, and the two quickly got married. They have a lovely daughter named Vanessa Marshall who works in the entertainment industry at the moment. After 56 years of marriage, the pair is still very much in love and leads extremely private lives away from the spotlight.
78 years old with a net worth of $10 million
At 78 years old, Joan has amassed a $10 million net worth and is still as gorgeous as ever when seen out and about in Los Angeles. She was last seen three years ago and was just seen paying for parking at a meter while wearing workout clothes and a ponytail.
She co-starred in the 2017 television film Psycho Wedding Crasher, which was her most recent and final appearance on screen.
Joan Van Ark, who has worked in the film industry for the past 50 years, has joined The Actor’s Studio as a life member. What an icon!
