Hollywood couple Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello have announced they are divorcing.
In a statement to US publication Page Six, they said: “We have made the difficult decision to divorce.
“As two people that love and care for one another very much, we politely ask for respect of our privacy at this time as we navigate this new phase of our lives.”
