Nick and Sofia

Sofia Vergara, one of the stars of the Emmy-winning ABC sitcom Modern Family, tweeted this photo of her boytoy, former Florida Senate and Delray Beach City Commission candidate Nick Loeb, after he underwent surgery in an L.A. hospital.

Loeb, 35, drove off a cliff in the swanky Los Angeles area of Bel-Air last week and sustained serious injuries. He was in the ICU at UCLA Medical Center for several days but his health has been improving.

“How can someone look so handsome after six hours in an operating room. Luv UUU!,” Vergara wrote in her tweet.

Jupiter Island golfer Tiger Woods‘ secret divorce settlement may be so expensive that he had to mortgage his home to pay for it!

Official records that just popped up in Martin County hint that Woods will have to pay ex-wife Elin Nordegren $54 million by January 2016 — or risk losing the house he spent five years building.

How do I know?

The philandering golf-club swinger took out a $54 million-mortgage last Wednesday, two days after his quickie divorce was finalized in Panama City Aug. 23.

And the mortgage holder, according to the records, is a shadowy company with no apparent capital, JRD Florida Ventures LLC. The corporation’s registered agent is none other than one of his former wife’s six divorce lawyers, Dennis Belcher.

Woods, the mortgage shows, used the Jupiter Island property, Sand Turtle, to secure the loan — which means that Nordegren could end up with that Motel 6-style crib if he doesn’t pay up. The document was actually notarized by Tom Sasser, Woods’ West Palm Beach-based divorce attorney.

Life goes on for newly single Elin Nordegren on the week she divorced golfer Tiger Woods and granted a cozy, softball interview to People magazine about her crowded marriage.

Still surrounded by bodyguards, the 30-year-old was just photographed exiting a pediatrician’s office near Orlando with her and Woods’ two children. (above)

Elin, meanwhile, is not the only one squawking about her world falling apart. Miss Congeniality star Sandra Bullock is scheduled to sit down with Today’s Matt Lauer Tuesday to discuss her pending divorce from philandering motorcycle builder Jesse James.

Former State Senate candidate Nick Loeb was in critical condition today at a Los Angeles area hospital after a single-car crash in the swanky Bel-Air neighborhood.

Loeb, 35, who also ran unsuccessfully for Delray Beach City Commission, is mostly known in Tinseltown for the company he keeps. He has been romantically linked to sitcom star Sofia Vergara, who lives near the crash site.

The West Coast website TMZ reports this morning that paramedics found the trust-funder Loeb suffered a severely broken leg and a “deep gash” to his chest in the crash, which occurred on a narrow, winding road running through hilly Bel-Air.

While Vergara stars in the ABC hit series Modern Family, Loeb has been dabbling in movie production. He is the son of Ronald Reagan White House ambassador John Loeb and a cousin of former Seagram boss Edgar Bronfman.

Loeb was recently divorced from his Swedish wife Anna, who was arrested for DUI in Delray shortly after Loeb announced his candidacy for Sen. Jeff Atwater’s seat last year. Loeb quit the race a month later and took up with Vergara.

Quickie divorce: Woods and Nordegren

Fifteen minutes!

That’s what could save you 15 percent or more on your car insurance, if you believe Geico.

That’s also how long it took embattled golfer Tiger Woods to get divorced today in Panama City!

“They arrived at about 1 p.m.,” said Kim Gibson, judicial assistant to Judge Judy Pittman Biebel. The judge pronounced Woods and the mother of his two children, Elin Nordegren, free from their marital ties.

“By 1:15 p.m., they were gone. They were in and out.”

So, how did something that takes years for some couples take just 900 seconds flat for the Woods?

“They were all in agreement on everything,” Gibson said. “They were prepared. We’d do the same thing for anyone else who’s prepared.”

Carl Hiaasen and his wife, Fenia, at a recent wingding in Palm Beach (Michele Sandberg/Special to Page2Live)

I set out to hate Star Island, bestselling Vero Beach author Carl Hiaasen’s latest for-adults novel.

I mean, what would a guy who’s been mailing it in to the Miami Herald for years know about Miami Beach’s paparazzi and celebrity culture?

Well, he knows plenty, and he’s not a fan. And that’s a potent mix!

The book, titled after the tony island off Miami Beach that the likes of singers Gloria Estefan and Sean “Diddy” Combs call home, might be Hiaasen’s best work.

Horn

There’s one job that U. S. Congress candidate Jim Horn, a self-described traditional values Democrat, forgot to add to his extensive resume as restaurateur, boat-racer and body-building products salesman.

But it’s something that many lovesick people in the Boca Raton area do remember!

Horn, 56, once worked as the vice president of Soulmates by Helena, a dating service whose owner pleaded no contest to two dozen charges of grand theft in 2004. She was ordered to pay back $300,000 in restitution to 41 former clients.

Matchmaker Helena Amram was also banned from operating her business in Palm Beach County while serving a five-year probation.

She was accused of fixing some of her rich clients — who paid up to $100,000 for a mate — with poor or sick or disabled dates. Some of the clients, meanwhile, included men with herpes and criminal records.

What about Horn, who’s seeking a seat once held by Mark Foley and Tim Mahoney?

At first Horn, who has moved to Palm City, told me he was never an employee of the company and never received a paycheck from Soulmates.

But when I reminded him of his testimony in an unrelated bankruptcy, in which he stated under oath that he was indeed a Soulmates employee and its vice president, he changed his tune.
