Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello Engaged: 'Modern Family' Star Shows Off Engagement Ring at SAG Awards
Newly engaged celebrity couple Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello appeared on the red carpet together at this year's Screen Actors Guild awards.
Vergara spoke to Access Hollywood while posing on the red carpet and gushed about her engagement and the couples' upcoming wedding plans.
Vergara teased that she immediately said "yes" to Manganiello after she saw how big and lavish the engagement ring was.
"You know with me it's all about the bling bling so he knew what I needed," she told Access Hollywood while showing off her massive ring. "I opened it up and I checked it to see and then I was like, 'Yes!'"
And though Vergara is undeniably pleased with her engagement bling, she insists that even if Manganiello missed the mark on the ring, she would still have agreed to marry him.
"He's so handsome that it I would have said 'okay' anyway," she added.
When asked when she and Manganiello would tie the knot, Vergara explained that the two have not finalized a wedding date due to their conflicting work schedules. But Vergara did confirm that wedding would be extravagant and "big."
"He's shooting and promoting 'Magic Mike' and I'm promoting my movie with Reese Witherspoon, so we're kind of busy so we're trying to do it maybe [this] fall. This summer is too busy," she explained."It's going to be big. We started off with 20 [on the guest list], and now there's like pages and pages."
Manganiello allegedly popped the question to Vergara last month while the couple traveled on a Hawaiian getaway trip to celebrate the holidays and Manganiello's 38th birthday.
At the time of the engagement, the Daily Mail obtained photos of Vergara sporting a massive diamond ring by the poolside of the Hawaiian resort that she and Manganiello were staying at for their vacation.
People sources also commented on the engagement, adding that Manganiello was "genuinely nervous" about proposing to Vergara and opted to pop the question in the couple's palatial suite in order to avoid the paparazzi and additional prying eyes.
Vergara began dating Manganiello in June following her May split from Nick Loeb.
Vergara and Manganiello first met at the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
