In an interview with the Spanish newspaper El Pais, the Modern Family star admitted it was because of their differing opinions on having children.

Vergara, who welcomed her son at age 19, said she wasn't willing to have another child in her 50s, while she claimed Manganiello did want kids.

"My marriage broke up because my husband was younger; he wanted to have kids and I didn't want to be an old mum," the Colombian-born actress revealed.

"I feel it's not fair to the baby. I respect whoever does it, but that's not for me anymore."

Vergara said she was at the stage of life where she was ready to be a grandmother, not a mother again, as her son Manolo is now aged 32.

"So, if love comes along, he has to come with [his own] children," Vergara continued.
