Her character Gloria Delgado-Pritchet has been pregnant for months now as Sofia Vergara films the hit comedy series, Modern Family.

And the actress’s prosthetic baby bump was certainly prominent on the set of the show on Wednesday.

The 40-year-old star showed off the huge fake belly in a sparkling tunic and black miniskirt as she filmed scenes in Long Beach, California.

The actress was also seen tottering around in sky-high black platform heels, which she paired with black opaque tights.

And playing the part of an expecting mother certainly appears to be hungry work, as Sofia was seen snacking on some cereal in-between takes.

The actress was accompanied by a heavily tattooed security guard as she made her way around the set.

Also spotted on the Long Beach location was actor Ed O’Neill, who plays Jay Pritchett, Gloria’s husband.

In real-life Sofia is rather engaged to her fiance Nick Loeb.

The couple have been engaged since July, when Nick popped the question on a romantic holiday in Mexico to celebrate the Colombian actress’s 40th birthday.

But despite the fact the pair seem
smitten and are said to be currently planning their wedding, friends
have recently spoken out about the relationship, claiming Sofia is ‘too
trusting’ of the businessman.

‘He’s treating Sofia more like a bank cash machine than a bride-to-be. And Sofia is such a loving, trusting woman that she would never suspect that Nick is using her for her fortune,’ an insider claimed to the National Enquirer.

Meanwhile, the Modern Family star paints a different picture and has been gushing in interviews about her relationship with her future husband.

‘We are f*****g professionals at doing nothing,’ she said.

‘We like to sit around on the beach and drink wine and talk s**t.’
