Sofia Vergara & Julie Bowen Praise Ariel Winter For Confidence!

Sofia Vergara and Julie Bowen have nothing but love and admiration for their Modern Family co-star Ariel Winter.

The 19-year-old actress showed off some skin in a mini dress at the ATAS Event screening for Modern Family held at the Saban Media Center on Wednesday (May 3) in North Hollywood.

“I’m always like, ‘Why are you showing so much of your body?’ and then she’s like, ‘Why not?’,” Julie told ET. “She knows exactly who she is. She knows exactly, and I’ve watched so much negativity bounce right off her, and I’m like let me learn from you.”

“She’s great. She’s a great actress, she’s super professional,” Sofia added. “We love her on set. She has never given us a reason to be upset. It’s fantastic, actually, all the kids on the set are like amazing role model to all kids because they behave really nice.”

Also in attendance at the screening was Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Ty Burrell, Nolan Gould, Eric Stonestreet, Aubrey Anderson-Emmons and director Steven Levitan.
