Sofia Vergara and Netflix SUED by Griselda Blanco's estate for 'unauthorized use of their family's image and likeness' in new series - as family seek to block release
Sofia Vergara is being sued by Griselda Blanco's estate who want to block the new Netflix series over its alleged 'unauthorized use of their family's image and likeness.'
