Sofia Vergara celebrated another win in the legal fight against her ex-fiancé Nick Loeb in a years-long custody battle over frozen embryos.

The 48-year-old actress looked stunning in a black tweed jacket and skintight jeans on Wednesday, just moments after a Los Angeles County Superior Court judge granted a permanent injunction stating that Loeb could not use the embryos without her consent.

The news comes as a major blow to his case where he tried to establish rights by going as far as even naming the embryos.

Sofia was clearly happy with the development as she strolled to her car in this latest Los Angeles outing.

She completed her look with a chic black blouse and seriously high matching heels. 

The Modern Family star had both her gorgeous face and brunette tresses fully done for the stroll.

Just last month, Sofia’s ex lost yet another legal battle when the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeal in Louisiana upheld the dismissal of a lawsuit he had filed in an attempt to claim custody of two embryos they froze seven years ago.

In the ruling dated January 27, the appeals court ruled that Loeb’s lawsuit, which it declared as ‘abhorrent’, should be thrown out because it made a ‘mockery’ of Louisiana’s legal system.  

The legal saga dates back to 2015 when Loeb, 45, first filed a lawsuit against Vergara in a bid to bring to term two female embryos that they had created and planned to use with a surrogate.

The pair had signed a contract at the ART Reproductive Center in Beverly Hills when they created the embryos in 2013 that stated neither could use them without each other’s consent.

Legal proceedings initially began in California but were later dismissed. 

Loeb later moved the case to Louisiana because officials there consider embryos to be human beings. In California, which is where the embryos were frozen, they are referred to as products. 

The couple called off their engagement in 2014 after dating for four years.

The Colombian siren, who has an adult son, Manolo, from a previous relationship, has been married to Joe Manganiello since in November 2015.

Loeb’s legal team say they are now planning to appeal to Louisiana’s Supreme Court.
