Modern Family star Ariel Winter's mother claims her famous daughter is lying about those abuse charges.
Chrystal Workman has released a statement saying Ariel is making up stories because she wouldn't allow the actress to engage in a sexual act with her 18-year-old boyfriend. Chrystal explained, "My fourteen-year-old daughter has been dating an eighteen-and-a-half-year-old man, and when I caught them engaging in behavior that I feel my daughter is too young mentally and physically to understand and fully grasp I put a stop to it immediately."
Chrystal added, "I love my daughter very much. I would never abuse her in anyway and I have always tried my best to always protect her and do what is right for her."
Ariel was removed from her mother's care by a judge in the wake of allegations of physical and emotional abuse. Her older sister, Shanelle, now has temporary guardianship of the actress.
