Sofia Vergara's staggering $180m net worth how it will change following Joe Manganiello split
Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello made the shocking announcement on July 17 that they will divorce after seven years of marriage.
The America's Got Talent star and the Magic Mike actor first met in May 2014 and enjoyed a whirlwind romance before tying the knot in November 2015. While Sofia was madly in love with Joe at the time, it didn't stop her from being practical about her financial future should their marriage end in divorce.
Do Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello have a prenup?
Sofia is estimated to be worth a whopping $180 million and made most of her fortune before she and Joe tied the knot, so it's not surprising she entered their marriage with an iron-clad prenup to protect her premarital assets.
While Joe's net worth is nothing to be sniffed at – he's estimated to have a $40 million fortune – Sofia is considerably richer than her soon-to-be-ex-husband, so it makes sense that she asked him to sign a reported $100 million prenup. While details of their prenup have not been made public, it sounds like dividing their marital assets and earnings should be straightforward.
Back in 2015, Sofia revealed that they would be keeping their financial matters separate once they tied the knot. Speaking to Howard Stern on his Sirius XM show, Sofia also said that Joe had no issue agreeing to a prenup. She said: "He said, 'Do whatever you want. I'll sign whatever you want.'"

She was the highest-paid TV actress in the world for multiple years thanks to her role on Modern Family, which saw her reportedly earn $500,000 per episode at the height of its success, meaning she was raking in $10 million a season.
