Ariel Winter Talks Tough! I Will Fight My Body Shamers and Stand Up For Myself
“Stand up for yourself or no one will stand up for you” affirmed the Modern Family actress.
Body critics aren’t cutting Ariel Winter any slack despite her efforts to get into her best shape. She had made gigantic improvements to her body leading critics to speculate that she must have undergone several cosmetic surgeries to have achieved such tremendous bodily changes in one year. Winter has come out to explain those changes to her body and the reasons behind them, pointing in particular to her change of anti-depressant medications.
While the actress could have just ignored her body shamers, she decided she was going to defend herself.
In an interview with PEOPLE magazine in New York, Winter said, “If you don’t stand up for yourself, who’s going to stand up for you?”
Just 2 weeks ago, an Instagram user suggested Winter’s new look was a result of plastic surgery. In a snide comment the Instagrammer asked:
“How many surgeries have you had on your body and face now? Two breast reductions, that’s obvious, cheekbone and chin shaving and lip fillers. Pretty obvious, she looks so different #Truth.”
Stunned by the follower’s outright rudeness, Ariel defended herself by admitting she underwent breast reduction surgery on one occasion but that every other aspect of her weight loss was a result of her switching her medication.
The actress also commented on her negative feelings about fans who, she believes, think they can pass judgment on anyone with whom they feel a connection from seeing them often on TV, or their personal devices. Winter defends her reaction by claiming there is nothing ‘bitchy’ about her standing up for herself.
Although Winter has also been accused of using other remedies, such as drugs for weight loss, the actress affirmed that it was her psychiatrist who changed her anti-depressant to medicinal coke. And it worked! She admits it wasn’t an easy decision to make but she did and it worked!
While Winter now happily boasts of a boosted confidence, she also admits she misses her curves.
