Sofia Vergara’s latest legal drama 

While Sofia Vergara embraced the joy of her Miami nights, she is currently entangled in legal turmoil related to her latest project, Griselda. The Netflix series, based on the life of Colombian drug lord Griselda Blanco, faces a lawsuit from Blanco's son, Michael Corleone Blanco. The lawsuit alleges that Sofia and Netflix used Griselda's likeness without proper permission, portraying events that were supposed to remain private. The legal battle, filed in Florida's Miami-Dade County, aims to delay the show's January 25 2024 launch.


Sofiya’s positive spirit to party hard before her upcoming serious legal matters is surely commendable. It is yet to be seen though if Griselda will be able to release on its scheduled date, 25 January 2024 or not.
