Earlier last month, during the promotion rounds of her latest Netflix show Griselda, Sofia opened up about the reason behind their separation. She told the Spanish newspaper El Pais that she did not want to become an old mother. “My marriage broke up because my husband was young; He wanted to have children and I didn’t want to be an old mother. I think it’s not fair for the child. I respect whoever does that, but it’s not for me anymore,” she said.
Sofia has a son, Manolo Gonzalez Vergara, from her first husband, Joe Gonzalez. She is reportedly dating orthopedic surgeon Justin Saliman, with whom she was seen in October last year.
