Sofia, laughing and clearly amused by the situation, explained to her fellow judges and the audience, "It's her first time visiting the show." This prompted even more smiles and laughter as everyone appreciated the wholesome moment. Margarita's surprise visit was a hit not only on set but also online. The video quickly garnered attention from fans, who couldn't get enough of the charming family interaction.
Friends beyond 'America's Got Talent'
Vergara and Heidi Klum are known to have one of the closest friendships in the entertainment industry. The Colombian actress and the supermodel have formed a strong bond since working together as judges on "America's Got Talent." Their friendship extends beyond the show, and they often enjoy spending quality time together outside of work. From attending events and dinners to sharing personal anecdotes, their friendship has captured the hearts of fans and set an example of genuine camaraderie in the entertainment industry.
The "Modern Family" star was recently spotted enjoying dinner in Los Angeles with her closest friends, including Heidi, Simon Cowell's fiancée Lauren Silverman and television host Terri Seymour. "Finally back together! 50 different subjects in 2 hrs," Sofia wrote on her Instagram post, "Oh we covered a lot of areas tonight! Love my girls," Terri wrote.
"We feel very Sex and the City when the four of us go out," Heidi previously shared with NBC Insider. "When we all hang out together, we're kind of gossiping, talking about relationships. I mean, girly stuff, and it's just fun to have girls to do that with now, and we're all kind of in the same age group… it's nice to exchange."
“We’re connected, we’re like twins," Sofia said to ET in 2020. “We’re always twinning, but you think that we planned this, and we don’t. It just happens,” she said.
