Sofia Vergara thought Joe Manganiello was “too handsome” for her.
The Modern Family star, who started dating the 37-year-old actor in July, admits she initially didn’t want to go out with him because she thought he was “too much.”
The 42-year-old beauty said: “I had just seen him very far away at events. I thought he was very handsome, but I wasn’t interested. Too handsome.” When asked if it’s really possible to be “too handsome,” the Colombian star told The Ellen DeGeneres Show: “Yeah, there is such a thing as too much. Or so I thought…”
While the actress wasn’t instantly smitten with the Magic Mike star, Joe previously admitted he always had a huge crush on her. Speaking about his ideal woman earlier this year, he said: “Sofia Vergara, that’s it. She’s got that Latin thing going. She’s got the butt, she’s got curves, she’s got a beautiful face, beautiful hair, just gorgeous and she’s feisty.”
The couple are planning to celebrate Thanksgiving with his extended family later this month. The former True Blood hunk recently said: “We’re going to have a big, big, big Thanksgiving. My brother just had a baby, his first baby, so it’s my first niece.”
