Though, they said, O’Neill was happy to skip town and move to Hawaii.
“Although he sort of got bored, I think,” Ferguson added.
“‘Cause, I don’t know about you, but he would call me randomly.”
Vergara quickly showed she knew what he was talking about.
“Oh yeah, believe me, he would call me randomly,” she said.

“And sometimes it would be by accident,” Ferguson said.
“He’d FaceTime me, and I would just see, like, the side of his house.
He continued: “I’d be like Ed, Ed, Ed, it’s me.
And he would be like, ‘Jesse, what are you doing on my phone?'”
Vergara added that she knows not only the accidental calls but also accidental messages from O’Neill.
“You know what he does to me a lot?
He leaves me messages, I think, because my name is Sofia and his daughter is Sophia.
He leaves messages all the time, but it’s to the daughter,” Vergara said.
“He always starts ‘Sophia, its dad.’
I’m like, at the beginning, it was like, ‘Why is he calling?
Why is he calling himself that to me?’
And then I was like, ‘Oh, it’s Sophia, the daughter.'”
