In all 11 seasons of ABC’s “Modern Family,” American actress Ariel Winter played Alex Dunphy as a member of the show’s award-winning excellent cast. Winter found playing the nerdy, bespectacled persona difficult, but she was up for the task and became a household name soon.

She was cast as a young girl and already had a strong resume thanks to cameo appearances on Fox’s “Bones” and CBS’ “Criminal Minds.” Even traveling by plane, she shot the 2008 film “Speed Racer” in Germany. Her stories weren’t always the finest. However, Winter rapidly emerged as a teen star and a fan favorite on the well-liked sitcom.

Winter’s portrayal of Alex on the show and her sense of style propelled her into the spotlight at 11. She evolved over the years, going from gentle to alluring. Winter always valued the help she received from her castmates. She told a magazine that she was around some of the best people she had ever met on the set.

And she also shared that they always wanted her to grow while being supportive at the same time. Winter had grown to the point when “Modern Family“ ended in 2020. It was difficult to say farewell to the group, who had become a very close family. However, she was also eager for future responsibilities.

Ariel Winter’s Journey on Modern Family

Ariel Winter gained notoriety on the acclaimed ABC sitcom Modern Family, but her portrayal of Alex Dunphy wasn’t her debut. The native of Virginia had previously made appearances on ER, Bones, Nip/Tuck, and Monk by the time she was cast as Phil and Julie Dunphy’s middle kid. But in 2009, she was cast in the part that propelled her to fame.

The ensemble of Modern Family won the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series four times before the series finale. The show aired from September of that year to April of 2020. Winter had played Alex since she was only 11 years old, or nearly half of her life, when the program ended. In the show’s final season, Alex seemed to complete a circle.

After finally being offered a fantastic position abroad, she began dating Arvin, the man she had always wished to date. Fans were pleased to see Alex moving on and pursuing her goals. While also taking care of her personal life, which she had previously neglected.

Even though she had previously caused the family a lot of harm. By season 11, she had become more approachable and generous.

Ariel Winter’s Life as a Voice Artist

Although Winter may now appear differently, there is no doubt that she is still the same beautiful and accomplished actress, with ardent followers ready to see her in new parts. And she’s got a tremendous start already. She had a great and drastically changed experience on “Modern Family.”

Now that it’s finished, she wants to move on. She is willing to find her next course of action rather than forcing it.  The comedy-thriller “Don’t Log Off,” is an indie movie. It is about a girl who vanishes from a virtual birthday party, it was Winter’s first endeavor after “Modern Family.”

Deadline claims that in addition to playing the lead, Winter also contributed to the film’s production. She is also cast in the crime film “Crimelands,” according to a search on IMDb. Besides acting, she is also an amazing voice artist in animated films.

She has played the voice of the title character, princess Sofia to young Trixie. From Penny Peterson to Bambi II as Thumper’s sister. She went on to star in movies including Kiss Kiss Bang, Duress and also appeared in Opposite Day in addition to her tenure on Modern Family.

She has also provided the voices of some well-known children’s characters like Sofia the First, Phineas and Ferb, Jake and the Never Land Pirates and Princess Perdita (segment “Green Arrow”), Young Sio, Little Tori, Chrissy Damon, and the list is pretty long and is not going to end soon.

Ariel Winter Opened up About Being Trolled & Fat-Shamed at Age 13

The daughter of Chrisoula (née Batistas) and Glenn Workman, Winter was born on January 28, 1998, in Los Angeles, California. She is the sister of the on-screen siblings, Jimmy and Shanelle Workman. Winter confessed that she was taunted and fat-shamed by fans when she was a young kid in an episode of Red Table Talk: The Estefans.

She changed organically as a result of growing up watching television in the public eye, as did her body. She also recalls being branded a “slut” and “fat” for no reason other than that she was growing and needed to alter her look.

Viewers harshly criticized her for constantly not being and appearing like Dunphy. She felt she had to alter herself to receive compliments as the comments poured in from all sides. She is still going through her journey today, but treatment allows her to heal.

It’s horrifying to hear of the bullying and harassment Winter experienced because of her appearance on Modern Family. However, Winter found it incredibly challenging to avoid the barrage of remarks thanks to the internet and social media. She gained 30 pounds and started using anti-depressants due to the bullying.

The 13-year-old was essentially ridiculed for just aging and not living up to the excessive expectations of the viewers who wanted Dunphy to always be 11 years old. Winter’s tale highlights issues for others in the child acting profession.

Even though it is wonderful that she is recovering and getting support via treatment. Sadly, Winter is not the first young actor who has spoken up about the abuse, intimidation, and abuse they experienced in the business.

Her Relationship with her mom

Ariel Winter‘s post-Modern Family acting endeavors have piqued fans’ interest, who liked seeing her portray Alex for 11 seasons, especially given how much she has matured. Fans of this actress are also aware of her tragic family turmoil. Ariel Winter’s horrible connection with her mother was made public while she was on the well-known sitcom. Even in 2015, at 17, Ariel became an adult.

Fans are curious about how Ariel Winter and her mother get along now that she has disclosed that her mother had abused her. Ariel’s mother wanted her to diet from a very young age, which left her frequently hungry and undernourished.

She also wanted her to dress in outfits that were not really comfortable to wear. Ariel Winter stated in 2017 that it had been five years since their last conversation. It was when her career was flourishing, and it does not appear like they will speak any time soon.

What is in Store for Ariel Winter now?

Winter was making a name for herself as an actress and showcasing her variety before “Modern Family” ended. Winter has a more dramatic role in the 2015 movie “Safelight,” a road trip story about two teenagers on a mission to take pictures of lighthouses. “Ariel is so prepared and competent,” director Tony Aloupis told We Blab Entertainment Magazine, “she had no issue at all controlling everything.

In 2019, Winter made an appearance on NBC’s “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” in yet another part that gave her the chance to leave the series. She portrayed Raegan, a wild party girl who had been abused and was looking for retribution. Being cast in one of her favorite series made Winter happy, and she seized the chance. Her focus, it seems, is solely on self-growth.
