Sofía Vergara makes relationship official
Sofía Vergara has ended months of rumor and speculation by publicly confirming her relationship with businessman Douglas Chabbott. The Colombian actress, best known for her role on Modern Family, shared a candid selfie taken in New York and a short, clear caption: “I love you ❤️ @dougchabbott.”

Who is Douglas Chabbott?
Douglas Chabbott keeps a low public profile but is known in business and luxury circles. He serves as vice president at Dasan Inc., a company active in the international luxury jewelry market. His social accounts are private, and he tends to avoid publicity—making the Instagram confirmation a rare public acknowledgment.
Public sightings and timeline
Although Monday’s post is the first explicit confirmation, Vergara and Chabbott have been seen together at events throughout the past year. They attended a dinner with several well-known figures and were photographed at concerts and other outings, which fueled ongoing speculation. One notable sighting occurred at an Oasis concert in Pasadena late last September.
Life after Joe Manganiello
The announcement marks a new chapter for Vergara after she announced her separation from actor Joe Manganiello in 2023. Fans and media closely followed her personal life since then; this Instagram post appears to close that chapter of conjecture and opens a new, more private phase of her romance.
What this means for Vergara
At 52, Vergara continues to balance a high-profile career with increasingly intentional personal choices. The timing of the public confirmation suggests the couple prefers to keep much of their relationship private while acknowledging it on their own terms.
As the story develops, fans can expect occasional public sightings and the occasional social media update from Vergara as she navigates this next chapter.
