Joe Manganiello wasted no time in taking the next step with his new partner Caitlin O’Connor, as the pair reportedly moved in together just one week after finalizing his divorce from Sofia Vergara, his wife of seven years, according to TMZ.
Reportedly thrilled about this development in their relationship, the couple, aged 47 and 34 respectively, seem to be deeply in love and have connected over shared roots in Pittsburgh and a mutual passion for travel, as revealed by an insider to TMZ.
Their cohabitation has been made smoother by the approval of Manganiello’s dog, Bubbles, who has been seen accompanying them on various outings, indicating the pet’s comfort with O’Connor.
Additionally, a source disclosed to Page Six that while O’Connor is moving in with Manganiello, she still maintains her residence.
The couple first made headlines in September 2023 and later made their official red carpet debut three months later at the Children of Armenia Fund Gala held at Cipriani in New York City.
The divorce between Manganiello and Vergara, who is 51 years old, was finalized amicably on February 9th, following their filing for divorce in July 2023. While speculation surrounded the reason for their split, Vergara clarified that their differing desires regarding starting a family played a significant role.
She explained that Manganiello, being younger, wanted children, whereas she felt it was not the right path for her anymore, expressing concerns about being an older mother.
