"Modern Family" star Sofia Vergara faces an extraordinary battle over the custody of the frozen embryo. Nick Loeb, Vergara's former fiancé, filed a lawsuit against her.

On Tuesday, Page Six first reported that Sofia Vergara will be facing a right-to-life lawsuit in defense of the fertilized eggs. The plaintiffs were identified in the Louisiana court papers as "Emma" and "Isabella," which are the female embryos.

The report also claimed that James Charbonnet is listed as the embryo's "trustee." According to sources, the lawsuit asserted the inheritance deprivation of the unborn embryos. Loeb demands legal custody of the frozen eggs promising that they can survive. He also ensures their trust fund, healthcare, and education.

Sofia Vergara is being accused that she refuses "to allow her daughters Emma and Isabella to continue their development, so they remain frozen in a tank", according to sources. It also demands the abrogation of the ART Reproductive Center contract signed by Sofia Vergara and Nick Loeb in Beverly Hills.

It was also explained that the embryos should not be used without both party's consent. Though, it was uncertain if it applies even when they break up. In case either or both of them died, Vergara teased that the embryos should be dissolved as it is.

Meanwhile, in previous reports, Nick Loeb reiterated that Vergara plans to "leave the embryos frozen indefinitely". According to the Telegraph, the actress does not intend to bear Loeb's children when they were still in a relationship. Hence, Loeb claimed that that has no difference to killing them.

It could be remembered that Loeb and Vergara took Vitro fertilization in 2013. After finding out that the former couple created not only two but five embryos, they talked about it. It was not stated what they agreed on how to take action regarding the claim.

Sofia Vergara is now a wife to "True Blood's" Joe Manganiello. What are your thoughts about this?
