Mommy Weight

[Blind Gossip] There is a bit of a frightening weight competition happening on the set of this network TV series.

The actress who plays one of the mothers on the show is very thin. The actresses who play the daughters on the show are always comparing their weight to hers.

The kids all started out at a normal weight, but as time went by, they became very self-conscious about the fact that as teenagers they weighed more than “mom.” Two of them started restricting their food intake because they were embarrassed about it.

[One of them] eventually gave up and now she weighs about twenty pounds more than “mom.” [The other one] is still restricting and is happy that she now weighs less than “mom.” She looks horribly thin in person. The producers may have to step in because it’s starting to look like an eating disorder.

  2. The Dunfy girls from Modern Family. I know the older one has mentioned her weight before and having an illness but she still looks pretty skinny

  4. TV Show: Modern Family

    Mom: Julie Bowen

    Kids: Ariel Winter as the one who gave up, Sarah Hyland as the one who kept restricting

  5. Modern Family
    Julie Bowen
    Sarah Hyland & Ariel Winter
    Both Julie & Sarah look terrible. Ladies, Sofia Vergara’s breasts should not weigh more than you do!

  7. was going to say mom with anna farris and the actress who plays her daughter but there is only one teen girl on that show.. so not sure what other show this could be. maybe modern family?

  10. Modern Family
    Mom: Julie Bowen
    Daughters: Ariel Winter & Sarah Hyland

    It’s better to be happy and healthy.

  11. Modern Family
    Mom, Julie Bowen
    Daughters are Sarah Hyland (mega thin) and Ariel Winter (20lbs heavier than mom)

  12. Show: Riverdale
    Mom: Her character is Hermione Lodge
    Actresses: Madeleine, Camilla and Lili

  13. Modern family
    Mum: Julie Bowen
    Daughters: Sarah Hyland for skinny and Ariel Winter for other

  15. TV Show: Modern Family

    Mom: Julie Bowen

    Kids: Ariel Winter gained weight and her sister on the show is a BONE now.

  16. I’ll guess this is Modern Family, with Julie Bowen, Sarah Hyland, and Ariel Winter.
    Ariel Winter does.

  17. Modern Family. Sarah Hyland is looking worryingly thin these days, and she has even mentioned hair loss.

  21. Modern Family
    Julie Bowen
    Sarah Hyland
    Ariel Winter

    Ariel looks healthy. Bowen DOES NOT!! Haven’t seen pix of Hyland in a while but I’m assuming she’s the daughter who weighs less than Bowen.

  22. The mom and the 2 daughters from Modern Family? Sarah Hyland looks incredibly thin to me.

  26. Modern Family

    Julie Bowen (Clare Dunphy)

    Ariel Winter (Alex Dunphy,) Sarah Hyland (Haley
    Dunphy)

    Ariel does, but Sarah Hyland looks all hollows and bones.

  27. TV Show: Modern Family

    Mom: Claire Dunphy

    Kids: Alex and Haley…wish folks would stop calling Alex (Ariel Winter) fat.

  28. A wild guess…
    TV Show: Modern Family
    Mom: Julie Bowen
    Kids: Sarah Hyland and Ariel Winter

    • Roseanne is a grandmother now. Her daughters are adults. Granddaughter Harris (Emma Kenney) looks fine for the two months they were filming last fall (wrapped before xmas/Emma turning 18). If anything, Emma would be comparing to her “big sister” on Shameless, Emmy Rossum. The other granddaughter Mary (Jayden) is like 8-9yo.

  37. This screams (emaciated) Anna Faris on the sitcom “Mom” but she doesn’t have “daughters”. She had 1 daughter who’s not on the show anymore.

  43. TV Show: Riverdale (Clues: “frightening” and “mommy” in the title since Veronica still calls her parents mommy and daddy constantly on the show)

    Mom: Nadia Yassir who plays Hermione Lodge (Veronica’s mom)

    Kids: Camilla Mendes (Veronica) who looks healthy, Madeline Petsch (Cheryl) who is very thin and talks about her vegan diet and intense exercise regime a lot

    • I think you are right. I think it has been awhile since Ariel Winter was tiny and Sarah Hand is just a flake. So I would be in the minority with you on Riverdale.

  45. Don’t know who it is, but shame on “mom” for encouraging that mess. I get it, she’s a show mom, but still you have a duty to the younger people to keep them from killing themselves through starvation, stop telling kids your weight. Not everyone is suppose to be tiny. Producers should have nipped it long ago.

    • I wouldn’t assume the “mom” is encouraging it all. It doesn’t even say she’s aware it’s happening in the BI. The kids could be getting that info a million different ways, via the stylists, production team, guessing or just innocently asking the “mom” in a joking manner”.

    • Where did it say that she was telling people her weight? She’s skinny (whether its healthy or not) and kids, specially teenage girls, will take notice. Julie Bowen should only have to gain weight cause it’s what she/her doctor wants not because her actor daughters might compare themselves to her.

  49. TV Show: Modern FAmily

    Mom: Julie Bowen

    Kids: Sarah Hyland and Ariel Winter

    Sarah hasn’t looked healthy in a while. She said she has some type of chronic pain condition though so I wonder if that has anything to do with it.

    • This ^^^

      Julie Bowen is 5’6 and 115lbs
      Sarah Hyland is 5’2 and 92lbs.

    • Hyland had a kidney transplant in 2012 apparently – so if anything should be a bit chubbier from the steroids!
