Modern Family star, Ariel Winter, has been through a lot of family turmoil in the last few years. Her adult sister filed to become Ariel's guardian in 2012, and won the case in 2014. Their mother was allegedly physically and emotionally abusive toward Ariel. The actress Tweeted she was "emancipated" in 2015.

Her sister, Shanelle Gray, and brother, Jimmy Workman, and their children - Ariel's nieces and nephew - are very important to the now 18 year old actress. It's her role as aunt that seems to keep Ariel feeling inspired. Earlier this year, CelebAuntie Ariel got her second tattoo, what she calls her "most special" one yet. She now has the initials of her four nieces' and one nephew's initials permanently with her on her ribcage, "on the side where [her] heart is." She shared the tattoos on Instagram.





Here's a fun Tweet and Instagram pic with her niece "Skybug"
