The siren did not mention her long legal battle with her ex Nick Loeb, who threatened to use her frozen embryos that were created in 2013.
Sofía did talk about being very close to her son. “It’s great that I had him young, because now I’m going to be 52 and he’s 32,” she said.
“Sometimes I wish I was older, because I would have been more mature, more prepared to be a mother, but that’s what I got and what happened,” she said.
‘So I moved on and tried not to look back, because it is what it is. But it’s funny because I grew up with my son.’
She had her son when she was a teenager: ‘It happened to me very, very young. I wasn’t even 20, so I don’t even remember much of my life without being a mother.’
Sofía also stated that motherhood ‘changes you, and it is very rewarding and also gives you a lot of headaches.’
But she is more than ready to have grandchildren.
‘I already like what he does with me. Manolo has a dog and on weekends he simply leaves him at my house. And he used to drop me off at my mom’s house on the weekend so he could at least go out once in a while.
She also said that she is doing well after divorcing Manganiello.
‘Life hasn’t always been easy. . . but I have never felt stronger,” he told the site.
