Sofía Vergara recently celebrated her 54th birthday weekend in Italy, sharing glimpses of the festivities with her followers.

The actress posted a photo on Instagram featuring herself in a vibrant red two-piece bikini while relaxing on a yacht, just one day after her July 10 birthday.

This public display of celebration offers fans a look into her personal life and how she embraces significant milestones.

In the shared image, Vergara is seen smiling at the camera, adorned with a dainty necklace and gold bangles, with the Italian coast visible in the background.

She captioned the post, expressing gratitude for the well wishes: “So happy for all the love from u guys yesterday!

Additional posts on her Instagram Stories provided further details of the celebration.

These included a video of a speedboat flag customized with her face and a “Happy birthday” message, as well as footage of loved ones singing and playing tambourines.

Her son, Manolo Gonzalez Vergara, 34, was also pictured holding a tambourine featuring his mother’s face.

The *Modern Family* alum enjoyed an abundance of desserts, with one photo showing her in a red strapless dress cutting into a custard cake.

She humorously noted receiving numerous cakes, writing, “15 cakes later!!” in another caption.

Staff members were seen presenting several cakes with sparklers, dancing as they approached her table.

Vergara has previously spoken about her perspective on aging.

In an interview for PEOPLE’s 2024 Most Beautiful Issue, she admitted to initial reservations about turning 50 but now feels positive about her age.

She stated, “I thought it was old, like that’s it.

And now I feel great.

I know I don’t look the same.

But I don’t think I am going to ever be the woman that has the courage to be, like, all-white hair.”
