The actress was first linked to Saliman, an orthopedic surgeon, in October 2023 and their romance seems to be going from strength to strength. Their most recent outing included dinner at Cipriani restaurant in Beverly Hills, California.

In photos obtained by Page Six, duo kept it casual with Vergara wearing an all-black ensemble, pairing a black trench coat with a strapless lace bodysuit and a pair of silk wide-legged pants. Saliman wore jeans, a plaid shirt and a leather jacket.

Saliman is Vergara’s first public romance since Manganiello, filed for divorce in July 2023. The couple announced their separation after seven years of marriage in a joint statement. “We have made the difficult decision to divorce,” the couple shared. “As two people that love and care for one another very much, we politely ask for respect for our privacy at this time as we navigate this new phase of our lives.”

In November, sources claimed Vergara was not looking back after embarking on a romance with Saliman. “Sofia has moved on from Joe and would be happy to never see him again. Her relationship with Justin has made her never look back,” an insider said. “Justin is absolutely charming, and handsome, and has an incredible job. He isn’t an actor and is very confident and she is eating it all up.”

They added that “he’s way more than a rebound. [They’ve] bonded on love lost and are just having a complete blast with each other.”

For his part, Manganiello has also moved on and has been dating actress Caitlin O’Connor.
