Howie Mandel shares Sofia Vergara's reaction to his joke about her relationship status

On the 'America's Got Talent' red carpet, Howie Mandel told Fox News Digital that his joke about Sofia Vergara's single status came at the right time, and shared how the former 'Modern Family' star reacted.

Sofia Vergara gave fans insight into her single life as she moves on from her marriage with Joe Manganiello.

Vergara admitted she's been "trying to have fun" and has been invited to many events, including the Beyoncé concert and Taylor Swift's tour, with her celebrity friends.

"I've been lucky!" the "America's Got Talent" judge told Entertainment Tonight when asked about her recent adventures. "People have been inviting me out, you know, trying to have fun. So I've been going everywhere they invite me."

Manganiello filed for divorce from Vergara on July 19.

Vergara and Manganiello first met at the White House Correspondents' Dinner in 2014. The "Hot Pursuit" star attended the event with her then-fiance, Nick Loeb.

Vergara and Manganiello were married for seven years and first announced their divorce in a joint statement. "We have made the difficult decision to divorce," the two shared with Page Six. 

"As two people that love and care for one another very much, we politely ask for respect of our privacy at this time as we navigate this new phase of our lives."

Both Vergara and Joe Manganiello cited "irreconcilable differences" as the reasoning for the divorce.

After Vergara and Manganiello's split was announced, a source told People magazine the couple "always put on a good front publicly," but weathered through "ups and downs for a long time."

"They'd be fighting or bickering, but then plaster on smiles when others were looking," the insider said.

An additional source added, "Their physical attraction to each other only carried their marriage that far," the source explained. "On a day-to-day basis, there are so many other things that need to work. There were several things that didn't work."
