Sandra Vergara, cousin and adopted sister of actress Sofia Vergara, is stepping into the spotlight, navigating the pressures and perks that come with a famous last name. In a recent interview, Sandra, a luxury real estate agent now appearing on Netflix’s “Selling Sunset,” discussed how she balances her own identity with the inevitable comparisons to her well-known sister.
Sandra acknowledges the comparisons are natural, but emphasizes that she’s forging her own path. She credits Sofia with supporting her when she first moved to Los Angeles and expresses deep respect for her sister’s accomplishments.
While Sandra didn’t initially tell Sofia about joining “Selling Sunset,” she did confide in Sofia’s son, Manolo, who encouraged her to take the leap. Sandra also shared that Sofia offered valuable advice: “Confidence is everything. Be sure of who you are and own it.”
Addressing the drama often seen on “Selling Sunset,” Sandra hopes to bring a sense of peace to the office, believing that harmony will lead to greater productivity.
Before her career in real estate, Sandra worked as an entertainment journalist and actress. She revealed that a difficult breakup prompted her to explore a new career, and a chance meeting led her to the world of luxury real estate.
