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.

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

  54. The modern family girls, Sarah Hyland and Ariel Winter?
    Sarah has copped a bit of flack lately for her weight loss.

  57. Modern Family
    Julie Bowen and the 2 daughters. What’s sad is that Sarah Hyland (the scary skinny one) acknowledges how underweight she is but blames it on her kidney disease 🙁

  58. TV Show: PLL or Modern Family

    Mom: Dont’know or Blonde Claire married to Phil

    Kids: April something and the older girl who dates the guy from the bachelor

    [Optional] Do they look healthy to you?

  59. Modern family. Julie bowen is so thin so its sara haylen…the oldest who is too thin. The middle girl (4get names) is um healthier weight wise n doesnt have the body type to get that skinny

  61. Hmm no clue. Modern Family withJulie Bowen, Sarah Hyland, and Ariel winter come to mind but they don’t seem like they would be in competition. If so, Ariel and Julie look fine, Sarah is skinny but she said it’s due to health so idk

  63. TV Show: Modern Family

    Mom: Julie Bowen

    Kids: Ariel Winter, Sarah Hyland

    [Optional] Do they look healthy to you? Ariel does, but Sarah does not.

  64. I am going to say actresses from Modern Family…the actress who plays Claire and then the two actresses who play her daughters.

  66. Modern Family

    Julie Bowen

    Ariel Winter and Sarah Hyland

    Sarah hyland looks scary thin / anorexic

  69. I don’t know but it could be Modern Family, Julie Bowen is the mom and Sarah Hyland and Ariel Winter are the daughters.

    I haven’t watched it in years, so I don’t know what they look like anymore.

  71. Modern Family
    Julie Bowen
    Ariel Winter and Sarah Hyland

    Considering the camera adds weight, Julie Bowen and Sarah Hyland must be very, very thin in real life.

  72. Show: Modern Family
    Mom: Julie Bowen
    Kids: Sarah Hyland (who looks wayyyyy too thin, super lollipop head) and Ariel Winters

  74. Big Little Lies
    Big Little Liar Nicole Kidman (thanks, Nicole, great job there!) :-/
    Isabella Cramp and Kathryn Newton

    Isabella looks like a healthy weight but Kathryn does not, to me.
    Sorry to hear this about a child actor. I hope she gets the help she needs!

  75. Modern Family

    Ariel Winter is the one who has given up starving herself.

    Don’t know name of other girl, don’t watch show. Is too fake for me.

  76. The cast of Stranger Things…Winona has always been small. The girls should be able to grow and have normal childhoods and not conform to society’s (impossible and unrealistic!) standard of beauty.

  78. Modern Family
    Julie Bowen
    Ariel Winter
    Sarah Hyland

    You cannot judge health on appearances. Only each respective woman and her doctors know.

  80. Modern Family
    Julie Bowen
    Ariel Winter and Sarah Hyland
    Ariel looks physically healthier but her lack of clothing is startling. Hyland looks like a bratz doll.

  81. Modern Family, Julie Bowen, Sarah Hyland (who also claimed to be suffering from sort of autoimmune renal issue)?? And Ariel Winter who at the very least looks comfortable with the weight she’s at.

  82. Actresses: Sarah hyland and Ariel winter
    Julie Bowen is a bit too skinny. Ariel is very cute and curvy. Sarah is almost waif thin anymore.

  83. Modern Family
    Julie Bowen
    Ariel Winters and
    Sarah Hyland
    *shrugs* it’s Hollyweird

  89. Maybe Modern Family?

    Mom: Julie Bowen

    Kids: Sarah Hyland (dangerously thin), Ariel Winter (gave up and weighs 20 lbs more).

    • There is an article out today about Sarah Hyland’s thinning hair. She says it’s because she is on medication for her kidney disease (which is absolutely true), but thinning/disappearing hair is a classic sign of anorexia as well.

  90. Mom: Julie Bowen
    Kids: Sarah Hyland and Ariel Winter

    Optional: Isn’t Sarah Hyland ill? That’s what she says causes the thin figure so I don’t really want to judge. Ariel Winter looks fine. She’s not Hollywood thin but I’d hardly call her unhealthy.

  93. I don’t know who this is about but it’s truly sad that these young girls are so influenced and trying to be skinny. If they carry on their bodies will pay the price unfortunately.

  95. TV Show: Modern Family

    Mom: Julie Bowen

    Kids: Sarah Hyland and Ariel Winter

    The “frightening” weight competiton might be a clue because Clare loves Halloween

  96. This seems to fit:
    TV show: Modern Family
    Mom: Julie Bowen
    Kids: Ariel Winter and Sarah Hyland

  97. Modern family
    I don’t know what the mom actress is called but she’s very thin.
    Daughters
    Ariel Winter & Sarah Hyland who is also very thin.

  98. TV Show: Modern Family

    Mom: Julie Bowen (has become more and more slender over the years)

    Kids: Ariel Winter (the one who weighs 20 pounds more) & Sarah Hyland (the one weighing less)

  100. Tv show: Roseanne
    Mom: Roseanne Barr
    Kids: Sara Gilbert and Lecy Goranson
    Sara is too thin and Lecy is speaking with a cartoonish deep voice. Lecy is also growing a goatee.
