Sofia Vergara carries her constant companion Amore in her purse as she steps out after ‘splitting’ from Justin Saliman

Sofia Vergara stepped out on Monday with the best accessory of all time: her adorable Chihuahua puppy Amore.

The Modern Family star, 52, carried the black and white puppy in a beige tote bag as she was seen out in Los Angeles. 

The Colombian bombshell looked chic in a cornflower blue, crewneck sweater and baggy white pants. The America’s Got Talent judge wore large stud earrings and kept her hair down and straight.

The brunette beauty called Amore, ‘Dolce baby Amore,’ meaning sweet baby love after she had to give up her previous Chihuahua Bubbles when she and Joe Manganiello divorced. 

This sighting comes soon after she reportedly split from her doctor boyfriend Justin Saliman.

After her divorce from the True Blood star, 47, Sofia started dating the Los Angeles-based orthopedic surgeon Saliman.

However, she seemingly confirmed their breakup during a conversation with Us Weekly about whether she thought New York City was a better place to date than Los Angeles.

‘Totally. Actually, I was talking yesterday about it because now I’m single so … kind of single. Anyways,’ she laughed. 

She continued: ‘But I feel like there’s a more diverse group of people in New York than in L.A. because most of the people are in the entertainment business. 

‘Here, you have people from all over the world — architects, writers, actors, businesspeople. 

The duo was first linked back in October 2023 when set up on a blind date by mutual friends. 

At the time, an insider told Life & Style that the orthopedic surgeon impressed Vergara by showing up to their first date with flowers and her favorite champagne. 

They were spotted for a second time a month later in Santa Monica, leading fans to speculate they were in a relationship.

Another one of their first dates took place at Beverly Hills’ Funke, with another source telling People that Sofia was ‘dating and having fun.’

Weeks after, the Griselda star confirmed their relationship by posting pH๏τos of them together while on a family vacation in Italy.

Prior to their relationship, Sofia was married to Joe Manganiello for eight years before calling it quits in July 2023.

Saliman is no stranger to dating actresses. He wed actress Bree Turner, 47, in 2008. They have a daughter, Stella, 14, and a son, Dean, 12. They divorced in 2018.
