Sofia Vergara, the vivacious Colombian-American actress, is back in the dating game. Recently, she was seen enjoying an evening with an orthopedic surgeon, Justin Saliman. The duo was spotted in Beverly Hills, where they had stopped for a meal.
The paparazzi managed to capture Vergara and Saliman in their car, and again as they made their way to the restaurant. Vergara was a vision in purple pants, a corset, and black heels. She accessorized with a maroon purse and let her long, straight hair flow freely, just the way she likes it.
Saliman, on the other hand, opted for a grey button-up shirt. Although a surgeon by profession, he is no stranger to the Hollywood spotlight, having been previously married to actress Bree Turner.
The date was reportedly a chance for Vergara and Saliman to get to know each other better. Vergara, who is currently single, seems to be relishing her independence and the opportunity to meet new people. An insider told PEOPLE, “She is enjoying life. She seems positive and full of energy. Sofia has been handling the divorce well. It wasn’t an easy decision, but she is doing great now.”
