Joe Manganiello has been out of the spotlight since a severe case of appendicitis, and wife Sofia Vergara wants fans to know that he is doing better.

“He’s OK,” Vergara told Entertainment Tonight at “Modern Family’s” ATAS Emmy Event on May 2. “He had a little problem, but now he’s good.”

Manganiello was hospitalized in mid April for appendicitis and according to TMZ, the 39-year-old actor “went into the hospital late last week to have his appendix removed, but when doctors went in they were alarmed. We do not conclusively know the nature of the problem, but one source says his appendix burst.”
