Newly single Sofia Vergara cuts a stylish figure in black jeans as she enjoys dinner at Cecconi’s

Sofia Vergara looked effortlessly stylish in black wide-leg jeans as she enjoyed dinner at Cecconi’s on Saturday night.

The actress, 51, looked incredible as she tucked a black square-neck top into the jeans.

She wore a matching pair of pointed toe heels and carried her stuff around in a blue clutch.

Sofia accessorized the evening outfit with a simple gold bracelet and straightened her long dark brown locks.

The judges of America’s Got Talent seemed in high spirits as she left the lavish restaurant with friends with her beautiful smile.

Sofia’s outing came after she brushed off an awkward comment from Howie Mandel on an episode of America’s Got Talent.

The incident occurred during last Tuesday’s episode of the long-running talent show series, in which judge Heidi Klum took part in a ventriloquist act with a flirty dummy.

The 67-year-old comedian was delighted with the performance afterwards and made a joke about the actress’s love life.

The artist divorced her husband, Joe Manganiello, earlier this year, who had been around for nearly a decade.

Mandel said via People, “I have one more piece of advice for you: If you’re looking for eligible singles, you should have talked to Sofia because she’s currently on the market.”

The show’s host, Terry Crews, tried to intervene, exclaiming, “No, we’re not doing that here!”

Vergara seemed unimpressed by the joke and merely cheered for the ventriloquist.

Mandel recently spoke to Extra and defended his actions, stating that the actress took the joke to heart during the show’s taping.

“She came up to me and thought it was funny… she has a great sense of humor and I wouldn’t do anything to hurt a co-worker – friend first and co-worker,” he said.

The comedian then commented that Vergara could probably find a suitable partner herself.

“She doesn’t need my help. She really doesn’t. I believe she will fend them off… She checks every box, so whoever ends up with Sofia will be really, really lucky,” he said.
