Ariel Winter has hit back at her mother Crystal Workman with multiple social media messages, hinting at her decision to dress as she pleases. This comes after Workman publicly criticised her Modern Family actress daughter for wearing revealing outfits and flaunting her assets on social media.

"What's sad is that you lie consistently. Also, why is it that you only choose to talk to me through the press? I'm doing just fine. Toxic," she wrote on Twitter without taking names.
She also took to Instagram to say "your body is yours."
During a recent interview with In Touch, Workman said Winter should avoid flashing her assets to gain attention. "She needs to grow up. I would tell her to dress properly, be the beautiful person she is. I feel sad that she feels the need to expose herself when it's not necessary," said Workman.
Calling Winter a smart, beautiful, talented and legitimate actress, Workman said Winter does not have to expose to gain attention. "She is beautiful with her clothes on," she said.
Workman and Winter do not have a close relationship. The teen became emancipated in 2015 after she accused her mother of physical and emotional abuse.
Winter is clearly unhappy that her mom is voicing out her disapproval publicly.
According to a HollywoodLife source, Winter feels that Workman should respect her privacy and not comment about these matters on a social forum.
"Ariel gets enough criticism about how she chooses to dress from social media and the last thing she needs is for her mother to come after her too," the source said. "Ariel does not want to dress like everyone else and wishes her mom would keep her name out of her mouth about it. She feels good about her body, her self image and will continue to wear whatever she wants. Ariel will not let her mother control or influence her decisions."
Workman, however, is not the only one who is unhappy with the actress flaunting her ample cleavage in skimpy bikini pictures. Her social media is filled with comments from fans asking the 19-year-old to cover up. But the actress has always maintained that she will dress as she pleases.
