According to the age-old adage (a la Beyoncé 2008), Joe Manganiello liked it, so he put a ring on it. All the single men and women of the world suffered a blow this past week, as Joe, 38, and his new fiancée, Modern Family star Sofia Vergara, 42, are moving their Facebook relationship status on up from “single” to “betrothed.”
After just six months of dating, Joe popped the question on Christmas Eve over their Hawaiian holiday trip while staying at the tony St. Regis Hotel in Princeville. It’s rumored that the proposal itself was a private, planned affair that happened at sunset and was quickly followed by champagne and desserts (as though the prospect of being with Joe Manganiello for the rest of your life isn’t enough of a treat). Though the couple was presumably enjoying their pre-marital bliss on Christmas Day, photogs were able to snap a picture of Sofia’s diamond ring on a fairly telling ring finger (though by the size of it, it doesn’t seem too difficult a task for photographers to spot it from afar).
And the festivities didn’t end there! Sofia posted an Instagram picture for her beau’s birthday, captioned “Happy happy bday to my love and best friend. To the one that makes me laugh like crazy! Have a healthy wonderful year babe!” A beautiful proposal for a truly, almost unfairly beautiful couple. Are you happy for them?
