Joe is said to have contacted Sofia's Modern Family co-star Jesse Tyler Ferguson to ask for her number following her breakup with Loeb.

After the two became close, there were rumors of a romance circulating for a few months. In an August 2014 interview with Extra, Sofia finally addressed the rumors. "I'm trying not to think too much about it because I'm simply enjoying myself and it's a unique moment in my life. Since it's very new, we'll have to wait and see," she remarked.
