Now, the Griselda lead is sharing more details about what made them split up in the first place.

"Well, I’m newly divorced from my second husband, who I was with for 10 years. My marriage broke up because my husband was younger," she told El País earlier this month. "He wanted to have kids and I didn’t want to be an old mom."

"I feel it’s not fair to the baby. I respect whoever does it, but that’s not for me anymore," Vergara explained of not wanting to add to her family. "I had a son at 19, who is now 32, and I’m ready to be a grandmother, not a mother."

However, she's not opposed to being in another serious relationship one day.

"So, if love comes along, he has to come with [his own] children," she declared. "I’m almost in menopause, it’s the natural way of things."

Despite the setback in her love life, she admitted she's thriving in her 50s.

"I feel very fulfilled. I’ve done much more in my career than I ever dreamed of. I never dreamed of being an actress. It was an accident. I’ve been hosting America’s Got Talent for four years, a show where I have a lot of fun, I’m hosting this series all over the world, I have my own clothing and beauty brand. I can’t even think of complaining about anything," the America's Got Talent judge shared.
