Not all co-stars end up as friends, but Sarah Hyland and Ariel Winter apparently have an unbreakable bond. So much so that the "Struck by Lighting" star never misses Winter's birthday — literally. "Happy 18th birthday @arielwinter!!!!! It blows my mind that you're now the age I was when we first met," Hyland wrote in 2016. "Love you little sister." In 2020, Hyland shared yet another heartfelt Instagram tribute to her television sister. "The Dunphy sisters might have an expiration date but I hope ours never does...like twinkies," she wrote.
Now, even though "Modern Family" has come to an end, Hyland's bond with Winter has not wavered. Alongside a selfie of them together, Hyland wrote on Instagram: "Little sister is 24 today!! We love to see it [prayer-hand emoji]..... (did I say that right @arielwinter ???) Happy birthday sissy!!! I love and miss you so much!!"
But even though Hyland and Winter have a wide age gap between them, the actors both had to deal with the horrors of growing up in front of the cameras. "It's really difficult to grow up in front of millions of people who have an opinion on everything you do, and who are allowed to say it at any point," Winter explained in 2020, with Hyland also admitting that "people really love to attack women especially." However, rather than allow this to bring them down, it has only made them closer!
