Ariel Winter Was Almost Fired
Ariel Winter, who played Alex Dunphy, almost lost her job more than once because of her mother, Chrisoula Workman. Winter’s older sister claimed that Workman would often have on-set tantrums which almost led to Winter being fired. During the run of the series in 2012, Winter’s older sister filed to become her legal guardian and the court awarded her guardianship of her sister in 2014.
