Sofía Vergara Recovers from Second Knee Surgery, Sparks Romance Rumors with Tom Brady

Sofía Vergara, the beloved star of Modern Family, recently gave her fans a peek into her recovery journey after undergoing a second knee surgery. The 53-year-old actress shared heartfelt photos on Instagram on July 25, revealing her hospital stay with a makeup-free selfie and a glimpse of her bandaged knee. Captioning the post with a determined 'Its done! Round 2', Vergara showed her resilience despite not disclosing the specifics behind the surgeries.

Her celebrity pals flooded the comments with support. Terry Crews, her co-star from America's Got Talent, cheered her on with pride, while Lauren Sánchez Bezos and Patrick Schwarzenegger sent their warm wishes for a speedy recovery. This isn’t the first time Vergara has faced such a challenge; back in April 2024, she shared a lighthearted post about her first knee surgery, humorously crediting her then-boyfriend, orthopedic surgeon Justin Saliman, for being by her side.

Since parting ways with Saliman in January 2025, Vergara has been spotted sparking romance rumors with none other than retired football legend Tom Brady. The duo was recently photographed together aboard a luxurious Ritz-Carlton yacht during a star-studded European getaway. Reports suggest a budding summer romance in Ibiza, Spain, with whispers of Brady intentionally switching seats to be closer to her at dinner. Whether it’s love or just a fleeting connection, Vergara’s charm continues to captivate both on and off the screen.

As she heals, her strength and positivity shine through, reminding us why she remains a fan favorite. Here’s to a quick recovery for this unstoppable star!
