“I would tell her to dress properly, be the beautiful person she is,” explained Workman. “I feel sad that she feels the need to expose herself when it’s not necessary. Ariel is smart, beautiful, and talented. She is a legitimate actress. She does not need to do this. She is beautiful with her clothes on."
Winter started opting for skimpy fashion choices in recent years. In 2015, she was emancipated from her mother and had surgery to reduce her breasts from an F to a D.

“I would not do that,” she told In Touch.
