The \u201cTrue Blood\u201d actor and O\u2019Connor were first linked in September 2023<\/a>, with reports surfacing that they were casually dating<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The couple debuted their relationship by stepping out<\/a> for the Children of Armenia Fund Gala at Cipriani in New York City that December.<\/p>\n

Shortly after moving in together in February 2024, they went Instagram official<\/a> and have been going strong ever since.<\/p>\n

Manganiello\u2019s relationship with O\u2019Connor began less than two months after he filed for divorce<\/a> from Sof\u00eda Vergara.<\/p>\n

The exes confirmed their divorce in a statement to Page Six that read, \u201cAs 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.\u201d<\/p>\n

Page Six was the first one to reveal the former couple\u2019s separation after seven years of marriage<\/a>, with a source telling us the topic of children was a huge factor in their split<\/a>.<\/p>\n

An insider close to Manganiello claimed he always wanted to be a dad and those feelings only intensified throughout the years, while Vergara \u2014 who welcomed son Manolo when she was 19 \u2014 did not share the same interest.<\/p>\n

Additionally, we heard the \u201cModern Family\u201d actress felt Manganiello was \u201can unsupportive partner.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

Vergara\u2019s friends also thought Manganiello was \u201can unsupportive partner.\u201d REUTERS<\/p>\n

Following their split, Vergara\u2019s friend told us, \u201cSofia\u2019s living her best life. She\u2019s spending time with her friends after being stifled in a relationship with a largely unsupportive partner.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cSof\u00eda was always there to take care of Joe, while his career was never what it was when they met,\u201d the pal added.\u00a0\u201cI think he\u2019s been threatened by her success and joie de vivre.\u201d<\/p>\n

After calling it quits with Manganiello, the Colombian bombshell moved on briefly with Justin Saliman<\/a>. She also sparked romance rumors with Lewis Hamilton<\/a>, Tom Brady<\/a> and, most recently, Douglas Chabbott<\/a>.<\/p>\n
