Two days later, the True Blood actor—who has since debuted a new romance with actress Caitlin O’Connor—filed for divorce, citing “irreconcilable differences.”

Since then, Vergara—who shares son Manolo, 31, with her first ex-husband Joe Gonzalez—has gotten candid about why the relationship didn’t work out.

“My marriage broke up because my husband was younger; he wanted to have kids and I didn’t want to be an old mom,” the Griselda star told Spanish newspaper El País in an interview published Jan. 24. “I feel it’s not fair to the baby. I respect whoever does it, but that’s not for me anymore.”

Noting that she “had a son at 19, who is now 32,” Vergara added, “I’m ready to be a grandmother, not a mother.”

But that’s not to say Vergara is no longer looking for a partner. The actress—who was linked to surgeon Justin Saliman in February—has also expressed a desire to move forward with her love life, albeit with a few new stipulations for any man she dates.

“To me, they can’t be younger than 50,” she said on the Jan. 24 episode of Watch What Happens Live, before quipping, “OK, 49.”
