Sofia Vergara split from Joe Manganiello because he wanted children and she did not.
The 51-year-old Modern Family actress — whose eight-year marriage to Manganiello, 47, broke down last summer — has reflected on their divorce and the reasons for the end of their relationship.
She told Spanish publication El Pais: “My marriage broke up because my husband was younger; he wanted to have kids and I didn’t want to be an old mom.”
While she has “respect” for anyone who becomes a parent later in life, she insisted it wasn’t the right move for her.
She added: “I feel it’s not fair to the baby. I respect whoever does it, but that’s not for me anymore.”
