Photographs obtained by TMZ showed the pair sitting across from each other at the restaurant, holding hands across the table as they appeared engrossed in their conversation.

Meanwhile, Sofia has been single since her marriage to actor Joe Manganiello came to an end in 2023.

Their reported dinner date has now put the Colombian-born actress back in the spotlight, with fans potentially wondering whether she has found a new romantic connection.

The singer and the Friday Night Lights actress had been together for four years before their relationship reportedly ended in early October.

Their split means Reynolds is now navigating life as a newly single star, making his reported dinner outing with Sofia particularly noteworthy.

The singer has built a successful career with Imagine Dragons, whose hits include Believer, Radioactive and Demons.

While Reynolds is known around the world for his music, he generally keeps much of his private life away from the spotlight.

Sofia, meanwhile, has become one of Hollywood’s most recognizable television stars, best known for playing Gloria Delgado-Pritchett on Modern Family.

The actress has also appeared as a judge on America’s Got Talent and has established herself as a prominent figure in the entertainment industry.

The reported sighting comes as both stars have been navigating changes in their personal lives.

Sofia Vergara’s Divorce From Joe Manganiello

Sofia’s reported dinner date comes more than three years after she and Manganiello announced their separation.

The former couple married in 2015 and were together for eight years before confirming the end of their relationship in July 2023.

Their divorce attracted considerable attention, particularly after Sofia discussed their differing views about having children.

The actress has an adult son, Manolo, whom she welcomed at the age of 19.

In January 2024, Sofia told Spanish newspaper El País that the question of expanding their family had been a factor in the breakdown of her marriage.

“My marriage broke up because my husband was younger; he wanted to have kids, and I didn’t want to be an old mom,” she said.

“I respect whoever does it, but that’s not for me anymore,” she added.

Sofia explained that she already felt fulfilled as a mother and did not want to start raising another child at this stage of her life.

“I had a son at 19, who is now 32, and I’m ready to be a grandmother, not a mother,” she said.

She also explained that her career and lifestyle influenced her decision.

“I didn’t think because of my career, the way I live my life, the way my marriage was, that it was fair to bring a kid to this world, and I’m not going to be able to give 100%,” Sofia added.

However, Manganiello later disputed the suggestion that the couple’s separation resulted from a disagreement that emerged unexpectedly over children.

Joe Manganiello Responds to Divorce Claims

In July 2024, Manganiello addressed the circumstances surrounding the end of his marriage in an interview with People.

The actor said the subject of having children had been discussed early in their relationship.

“We had a huge conversation right out of the gate during the first month we dated,” he explained.

Manganiello said he had made his position clear and told Sofia that he would understand if she did not want more children.

“I said, ‘If you’re done with kids, then I understand. Just tell me, and I’ll know what this is, and that’s okay,’” he recalled.

He also rejected the suggestion that he had eventually issued an ultimatum after years of marriage.

“To be painted as if I had some sort of midlife crisis, and after nine years, turned to somebody and gave them an ultimatum of, ‘Do this potentially unhealthy thing to your body, or else I’m gone’?

That’s never who I was,” he said.

The actor also described the emotional difficulties he experienced during the later years of their relationship.

He claimed their marriage had “become devoid of any emotionality whatsoever” and said he had privately struggled for years with an autoimmune disorder that affected his body.

Manganiello further alleged that Sofia had refused to hug him when he asked for affection. Reports also described disagreements over his decision to rescue a small Chihuahua named Bubbles in 2019.

The former couple announced their separation in July 2023, bringing their eight-year marriage to an end.

Manganiello subsequently moved on with actress Caitlin O’Connor, to whom he became engaged in 2025.

Sofia, meanwhile, has continued to focus on her career and life following the divorce.

Now, her reported dinner outing with Reynolds has prompted fresh interest in her romantic life, although it remains unclear whether the pair are dating or simply enjoying each other’s company.
