London:
The Modern Family actress was seen enjoying dinner with the businessman in New York recently, a month after they split following a series of arguments, and friends say they are trying to work out their problems.
A source told the New York Post newspaper: "The truth is they love each other, but relationships are difficult. They have been talking a lot to work things out."
Following their split, Sofia - who had been dating Nick for over two years - moved into a hotel, but friends admitted at the time they were unsure the separation would be permanent.
A source said at the time: "Sofia was confiding in friends at the Met Ball that she and Nick have split. They have been fighting a lot recently and have been on the brink of splitting many times. It is not yet clear if they are over for good, but they are done as a couple for now."
Insiders claim it may have been the pressures of her newfound fame with Modern Family and a host on Saturday Night Live which caused them to break up.
Sofia - who turns 40 in July - recently said she first fell in love with Nick because he was not intimidated by her looks or fame and seemed "normal".
She revealed: "The most important thing was that he was very handsome. But he was also very funny, talking s**t to me like a normal person."
