LOS ANGELES (AFP) - Modern Family star Sofia Vergara - America's best paid TV actress - and Joe Manganiello of True Blood fame plan to tie the knot, United States media reported Monday.

Colombian-born bombshell Vergara, 42, has been dating the American actor, 38, for six months since breaking off a relationship with businessman Nick Loeb.
