7 years after a mysterious autoimmune illness began, actor Joe Manganiello described a “night in hell” while hospitalized for the condition, telling Entertainment Weekly that he believed he would die that night, “I am going to die tonight.” He framed the episode as the lowest point of a prolonged health battle that had remained largely private until the admission. Months after the hospitalization, Manganiello told Yahoo that he emerged from the ordeal feeling “reborn,” a sentiment echoed in his description of a seven‑year struggle with the autoimmune disease.

The Daily Beast noted that the same period coincided with the dissolution of his marriage, linking the extended health fight to the end of his relationship with Sofia Vergara. In a fresh interview cited by Page Six, Manganiello alleged that Sofia Vergara mocked him throughout his near‑fatal health battle, a claim that adds another layer to their public split.

The dispute remains a prominent narrative in entertainment reporting, with no further statements from Vergara currently on record.
