Sofia Vergara recently opened up about her divorce from Joe Manganiello.
Her statement comes after the estranged couple announced the end of their seven-year marriage.
“As two people who love and care for each other very much, we politely ask that our privacy be respected at this time as we navigate this new phase of our lives,” Sofia and Joe said in a joint statement to PEOPLE.
After announcing their separation, Joe filed for divorce two days later, citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the annulment.
Recalling her “public divorce” with the Magic Mike star, Sofia recently spoke to CBS Sunday Morning and said, “I’m moving on. You’re out there in the public eye and people know it’s a celebrity.”

She added: “I knew there would be press attention. You can’t hide those things.”
Sofia continued, “It wasn’t bad. I mean, you know, I have to say, the press was very respectful and very nice. And I thought he was going to make up more stuff, and you know how it usually is. I was surprised and they, you know, they just said what it was and it was.”
