Ariel Winter

'Modern Family' actress Ariel Winter hasn't had the most normal childhood lately. In addition to being part of a perpetually award-winning sitcom, the 14-year-old has been embroiled in the middle of a custody battle between her mother and older sister after abuse allegations came to light.

Things seem to be coming to a conclusion in the Ariel Winter guardianship case, and that's a relief because OH MY GOD enough already.

The Ariel Winter custody suit drama continues as Winter's mother Chrystal Workman has reportedly sought to discredit her other daughter Shanelle Workman -- Ariel's new court-appointed guardian -- by having the press leak nude photos of her.

Hey, guess what? Ariel Winter is now under judge-mandated guardianship by her sister Shanelle Workman. Hey, guess also what? This whole thing is really starting to grate our nerves.

It doesn't just take two to tango -- it also takes a dance partner (as it were) to make a baby. And Ariel Winter's father has finally stepped forward to do more than provide a Y chromosome -- he says he wants guardianship of the 'Modern Family' actress. This after weeks and weeks of his daughter being in the news for abuse allegations against her mother, of course. Took him long enough.

Just when you thought it couldn't get worse than allegations of abuse and reverse allegations of statutory rape, things have taken a strange turn in the case between Ariel Winter and her mom, Chrystal Workman.

As 14-year-old 'Modern Family' star Ariel Winter's mama-drama weren't bad enough, now she's getting advice about older men from a true connoisseur of such things: creepy child-bride Courtney Stodden.

In response to allegations that Chrystal Workman abused her daughter, 'Modern Family' actress Ariel Winter, Workman has issued a statement to try and clear things up. Albeit with a claim that has more plot holes than 'Prometheus.'

Ariel Winter, the 14-year-old actress who appears on the Emmy-winning show 'Modern Family,' was removed from her home by order of a judge after emotional and physical abuse allegations were lodged against her mother. That's a modern family in the saddest way possible.
