OK! Magazine reports on Wednesday that the Hollywood actress is campaigning to have Manganiello on the show. Vergara plays Gloria on the highly-acclaimed sitcom and so far has been nominated for four Emmy Awards along with several more accolades.

A source tells the site, "Sofia thinks Joe would be a perfect guest star on Modern Family - and the sitcom's writers agree. Casting Joe would bring headlines - and ratings."

What's more, the show's writers have supposedly already written up a role for him as a hunky handyman.

Meanwhile, according to Extra TV back in December, Manganiello is trying to keep their relationship at bay from the paparazzi and the tabloid world.

About the couple's recent engagement in Hawaii, a source said Manganiello "wanted to keep it private... He said this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity with a one-in-a-million woman."

The insider added, "He didn't want to propose in a public setting, even though there are so many beautiful spots on the hotel grounds that have spectacular views and are well-known as places where people pop the question. But Joe said he didn't want to risk anyone walking by and witnessing it, and he didn't want to tip off Sofia by having security there shooing people away."

The couple has been dating for six months and announced their engagement on Christmas Day.
