Sofía Vergara is currently single, but she might have dating on her mind after a flirtatious outing with a Formula One superstar!
The Modern Family actress was spotted by TMZ on Tuesday, Jan. 14 having lunch with race car driver Lewis Hamilton. The snapshots show the duo smiling and laughing in New York City while they enjoyed a meal with several friends. They weren’t hiding their time together either as they sat near the window as they ate and conversed. There was no PDA between them, but the electricity was palpable.
In January 2024, Vergara appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and admitted that dating in New York City is more fun than in Los Angeles. “I love it, who doesn’t love New York City?” she exclaimed. “It’s the people, it’s the energy. I think that you have more options with men also. I’m single now!” She sounded very keen on avoiding entertainment industry men when it comes to romance, too.
“So, in New York, there’s not only like actors or directors, I think…I’m going to spend more time in New York,” she said while possibly shading her ex-husband Joe Manganiello. So far, the 52-year-old actress seems to be sticking to that dating strategy. She was with orthopedic surgeon Justin Saliman for less than a year after she split with Manganiello in July 2023.
Hamilton’s dating life has always been a headline after he spent eight years with Pussycat Doll lead singer Nicole Scherzinger. They were first spotted in 2007 at the Monaco Grand Prix together and their time together was bumpy — sometimes on, and sometimes off. When they split in 2015, Scherzinger released a statement, via Us Weekly: “I’m devastated that it didn’t work out. It was the hardest decision we had to make, but we made it together.”
Later on, he was spotted with Gigi Hadid, Rihanna, Kendall Jenner, Rita Ora, Nicki Minaj, and most recently, Shakira. He often claimed that the women were just “friends,” but we are curious to hear how he would describe his budding friendship with Vergara. They might be Hollywood’s first power couple of 2025 and we are here for it!
