Sofía Vergara shared a health update with fans. The 53-year-old "Modern Family" actress posted photos of herself in the hospital in a July 25 Instagram post, sharing that she had undergone a second knee surgery, although she didn't share the reason behind the operations. "Its done! Round 2 🙏🏼❤️❤️#knee," she captioned the post. One of the photos featured a makeup-free selfie of Vergara on a hospital bed, resting her cheek on her hand as she smiled for the camera while dressed in a hospital gown. The second photo showed Vergara's right leg, which showed a bandage taped on the side of her knee and a brace wrapped around her shin. Many of Vergara's famous friends wished her well in the comments section, including her "America's Got Talent" co-star, Terry Crews, who wrote, "❤️❤️❤️ proud of you!" Lauren Sánchez Bezos also commented, writing "Sending you ❤️" while Patrick Schwarzenegger wrote, "Wishing you speedy recovery !!!!" This is not the first time the "Griselda" star has needed an operation on her knee. She previously shared with her followers on Instagram stories in April 2024 that she had gone through surgery, assuring fans she was in safe hands. "If u ever get a [major] knee surgery make sure u Get a handsome doctor who will sleep with u that night... !" she wrote at the time, adding "Luv u." Vergara was referring to her boyfriend at the time, orthopedic surgeon Justin Saliman, whom she dated for over a year before announcing they had split in January 2025. Following her breakup from Saliman, Vergara sparked romance rumors with retired football player, Tom Brady. The two were photographed together while on the Ritz-Carlton yacht during a star-studded European voyage. In the photo, Vergara can be seen posing with her eyes closed as singer J Balvin kisses the top of her head, while Brady smiled at the camera as he sat next to the actress.

Maura Higgins sparks concern as she begs fans to help her with painful injured knee admitting it feels like it is 'on fire' and is 'killing her'
sparked serious concern after telling fans her injured knee is 'killing her'. The Irish TV star, 34, reached out for help from her fans on Instagram on Friday, explaining her knee felt like it was pulsing. Posing in a make-up free selfie as she held a drink in her hand, the Love Island alum wrote: 'Don't have the time right now to see a specialist, but if anyone has any recommendations for something I can buy to stop my knee from KILLING please DM me. 'It feels like there's a pulse inside of it & it's also on fire. 'The running around with the house move has not helped it. (yes my greys are out too, no time for that either.' The concerning update comes after Maura moved into her £1.25million five-bedroom 'dream house' in Essex. The Irish TV star reached out for help to her fans as she penned: 'Don't have the time right now to see a specialist, but if anyone has any recommendations for something I can buy to stop my knee from KILLING please DM me' Maura, who has amassed an estimated £3.2million fortune from her TV appearances, took to Instagram earlier this month to share the news that she had finally moved in. Sharing the news she posted a picture of stunning black French doors looking on to a garden, with a huge bouquet of glowers in a vase, Ferrari sparkling wine and a Diptyque candle. 'After the busiest few months.... she's finally in,' the former Love Island star captioned the snap. Sharing another snap of the kitchen featuring her pal, celebrity hairdresser Carl Bembridge, she wrote: 'No chairs yet but he always finds something to sit on.' As a young woman in rural Ireland, Maura's future was set - stay in the town, marry her teenage boyfriend and open up a hair salon. 'But that's not what I wanted. That was not my dream. That was my father's and boyfriend's dream. I wanted to do more,' Maura previously defiantly declared. And leave Ireland she did, going on to star in two ITV reality shows, Love Island and most recently I'm A Celebrity, as well as taking on presenting duties. Sharing the news she posted a picture of stunning black french doors looking on to a garden, with a huge bouquet of glowers in a vase, Ferrari sparkling wine and a Diptyque candle In her next big move, the girl from remote County Longford purchased her huge house in Essex. Her riches have allowed the presenter to upgrade from her previous one-bedroom property in Essex to one with an en-suite master bedroom with four further rooms. Overjoyed, Maura shared to her Instagram followers a picture of her new kitchen with a chandelier and grey floors, which she bought in October, with the caption 'Bought my dream house'. An expansive kitchen, with an island, leads out past the dining area, out bi-folding doors to a large walled garden with a neat lawn. Maura's previous home was raided by three-masked men and so the Love Island star has ensured her new home was in a gated development which provides privacy and security.

Sofía Vergara reveals second knee surgery, one year after first operation : 'Round 2'
Vergara previously had an operation on her knee in April 2024. Sofía Vergara is on the mend again. The Modern Family alum shared on her Instagram account Friday that she had undergone a second knee surgery, over a year after receiving the first. In the post, which included one photo of Vergara smiling in a hospital robe, and one of her knee with a large grey brace and bandage on it, the actress wrote, "It's done! Round 2." She included the prayer emoji, some hearts, and the hashtag #knee in the caption. Vergara's post didn't specify what exactly the procedure was for or why she needed it, but in April 2024 she revealed on her Instagram Stories that she underwent a separate knee surgery — and was being cared for by her then-boyfriend, Justin Saliman, an orthopedic surgeon. "If u ever get a [major] knee surgery make sure u Get a handsome doctor who will sleep with u that night... ! Luv u," the actress captioned a photo of Saliman, who was seen smiling down at her while wearing navy blue medical scrubs. (After more than a year of dating, the former couple announced in January that they had gone their separate ways.) The following day, Vergara once again took to her Instagram Stories to share a video of a gag gift her fellow America's Got Talent judge Howie Mandel gave her. The object appeared to be some kind of electric pogo stick. Vergara has not been shy about her health battles over the years. For instance, in honor of World Cancer Day in 2022, she opened up about her thyroid cancer diagnosis at 28. "At 28, 'Cancer' was not a word I expected to hear. It was just a routine checkup," Vergara wrote on her Instagram at the time. "But the doctors found a lump in my throat, and that word became part of my story." "I spent countless hours in radiation treatments, and, eventually, in surgery. Today, I get to call myself a cancer survivor," she continued. Her post also included an old photo of her looking through a camera lens, with a scar visible on her neck. Of it, she wrote, "This was my first acting class after diagnosis and treatment, and seeing the scar on my throat reminds me of how blessed I felt that day — and every day since. I'm lucky and grateful to be in a position to share my story and say: early prevention is so important!!" The America's Got Talent judge concluded her message by urging followers, "Schedule your annual check up for this year if you haven't already 😘," adding the hashtags #worldcancerday and #closethecaregap.

Sofia Vergara reveals she has gone under the knife again... after her 53rd birthday
Sofia Vergara has gone under the knife again. In a Friday Instagram post the Modern Family actress, who turned 53-years-old earlier this month, made the reveal. It was a second operation on her knee which the Colombian siren had worked on for the first time last year. 'It's done! Round 2 ❤️❤️#knee,' wrote the brunette as she was seen in a gown while in a hospital bed with a patch and brace on her leg. In August 2024 she shared a look at the long scar on her knee after undergoing 'major' surgery. The America's Got Talent veteran had on a strapless white dress with her knee propped up as she thanked her 'handsome' doctor boyfriend Dr. Justin Saliman for helping her out; they have since split. 'If u ever get a mayor (sic) knee surgery make sure u Get a handsome doctor who will sleep with u that night!!!!' she wrote in an Instagram story with a picture of her boyfriend standing by her bed. It's unclear how the Griselda star hurt her knee. According to his website, Saliman is the inventor of the Novo Stitch Pro Meniscal Repair system, which allows a surgeon to repair meniscus tears rather than remove the damaged area. Vergara finalized her divorce from ex-husband Joe Manganiello, 47, earlier this month. Court papers obtained by Page Six, indicate the dissolution of the Vergara-Manganiello marriage was made in accordance with the pre-nuptial agreement the couple made prior to their November 2015 marriage. The documents indicated he received all of his 'earnings and accumulations' from the date of their separation, July 2, 2023 in addition to his clothing, jewelry and 'miscellaneous personal effects.' The pair noted they never had 'any community property' between them. Vergara's settlement was similar, providing her with her own belonging, jewelry and earnings since the separation. The original reason for the divorce was 'irreconcilable differences' but Vergara later revealed in an interview with El País the fracture was over whether or not to have children. 'My marriage broke up because my husband was younger; he wanted to have kids and I didn't want to be an old mom.' She explained to the outlet, 'I feel it's not fair to the baby. I respect whoever does it, but that's not for me anymore. I'm almost in menopause; it's the natural way of things,' she stated. Earlier this month Vergara turned 53. The femme fatale was on vacation at Nammos in Europe with her pals when she celebrated another trip around the sun. She posed in a white bikini as she dug into a colorful cake while surrounded by bouquets of flowers. The post saw the two of them together as he wrote 'happy birthday' over the snapshot. Sofia is single after splitting with Dr Justin Saliman after her Joe Manganiello divorce. Last month Sofia gave an insight into what she's looking for in her next relationship, saying she wants her next boyfriend to be as rich as she is. She admitted that she needs 'fun in [her] life' - but she isn't interested in dating someone who isn't financially independent. Asked what she is looking for in her next relationship, Sofia said on the Today show: 'I want to say the basic stuff, like health and somebody that loves me. And somebody tall, handsome.' 'I want somebody that has as much money as me or more, because if not, it's a nightmare. They end up resenting you.' The Hollywood star - who was married to actor Joe between 2015 and 2024 - shared: 'I've been single now for a year and a half, and I kind of panicked once I got divorced. I was like, "I'm 52, what's gonna happen? Where am I going to find [someone]?"' Despite this, Sofia is still in no rush to find love. She said: 'I'm not really in a hurry anymore.'
