Sof\u00eda Vergara<\/strong><\/a> is one of the most eligible bachelorettes in Hollywood following her July 2023 divorce from Joe Manganiello<\/strong><\/a>, but maybe not for long! The Modern Family<\/em> alum has been spotted on multiple steamy nights out with orthopedic surgeon Justin Saliman<\/strong> and fans are curious about her new boyfriend.<\/p>\n Dr. Justin Saliman is a Stanford sports medicine trained orthopedic surgeon, operating out of Los Angeles\u2019 Cedars-Sinai Hospital.<\/p>\n \u201cHe is the founder of Ceterix\u00ae Orthopaedics and the inventor of the NovoStitch\u00ae Pro Meniscal Repair System, which was acquired by a large medical device company called Smith & Nephew in 2019,\u201d his biography<\/a> stated on his official website. \u201cHe is specialized in joint preserving minimally invasive techniques to repair injuries to the shoulder, hip, and knee to prevent arthritis and prevent the need for joint replacement later in life.\u201d<\/p>\n Prior to his fellowship at Stanford, he earned his medical degree at the University of Colorado School of Medicine and went on to complete orthopaedic surgery residency at St. Luke\u2019s-Roosevelt Hospital Center of Columbia University in New York City.<\/p>\n \u201cThey were introduced by mutual friends, so Sof\u00eda didn\u2019t go in totally blind. He was vetted, so to speak,\u201d a source exclusively told Life & Style<\/em> after the pair were spotted publicly for the first time on October 20, 2023. \u201cJustin impressed her right off the bat by showing up to their first date with flowers and her favorite champagne.\u201d<\/p>\n Since their romance sparked, the pair have reportedly been inseparable<\/a>. \u201cJustin hasn\u2019t just charmed Sof\u00eda,\u201d an insider exclusively told Life & Style<\/em>\u00a0in November 2023. \u201cHe\u2019s met a bunch of her family and friends, and they\u2019ve all given him the thumbs up. Sof\u00eda seems very happy.\u201d<\/p>\n Joe filed for divorce from Sof\u00eda in July 2023, listing their date of separation as July 2. At that time, Sof\u00eda was 50 years old and Joe was 46 and the estranged couple had different opinions about wanting to start a family<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cMy marriage broke up because my husband was younger,\u201d the Griselda actress later confirmed in January 2024. \u201cHe wanted to have kids and I didn\u2019t want to be an old mom. I feel it\u2019s not fair to the baby. I respect whoever does it, but that\u2019s not for me anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n Sof\u00eda shares a son, Manolo, with her ex-husband Joe Gonzalez<\/strong> while the Magic Mike actor has no children of his own. The actress was only 19 years old when she gave birth to her son in 1991. \u201cI\u2019m ready to be a grandmother, not a mother,\u201d she admitted. \u201cSo, if love comes along, he has to come with [his own] children.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\nWho Is Dr. Justin Saliman?<\/h2>\n
