Sofia Vergara, 51, says she doesn’t want more kids due to her age and lifestyle.
“There’s things in life that might sound like good ideas, but they’re not,” Vergara told People.
In January, the “Griselda” star said her marriage to Joe Manganiello ended because he wanted kids, but she didn’t.

Sofia Vergara, 51, says she doesn’t want more kids at her age because she can’t give them her all.
“I didn’t think because of my career, the way I live my life, the way my marriage was, that it was fair to bring a kid to this world, and I’m not going to be able to give 100 percent,” Vergara told People.
Since Vergara was already a mother, she knew the kind of dedication it would take to raise another child — something that she couldn’t provide at this point in her life.
“There’s things in life that might sound like good ideas, but they’re not,” Vergara said. “I know what it means to be a good mother or to try to be the best mother that you can, and that takes a lot of sacrifices, takes a lot of energy.”
She added that although she respects anyone who wants to be a mother after 50, that lifestyle wasn’t for her.
“Nowadays, thanks to science, women can actually have babies older. Before, nature for some reason tells your body at 50 you are in menopause, it’s time for you to be done with that,” Vergara said. “There is a reason why nature is doing that.”
The “Griselda” star has one son, Manolo, with her ex-husband Joe Gonzalez. Vergara and Gonzalez split in 1993, two years after their son was born.
Vergara married Joe Manganiello in November 2015. After seven years, the couple announced they were divorcing.
