Julie Bowen and her former costar, Sofía Vergara, seem to have a lovely relationship, according to some of their comments about each other in interviews and on social media.
It appeared that the actresses had an excellent rapport while working together on Modern Family for more than a decade. However, sources claimed that Bowen and Vergara do not agree on much because of their clashing personalities.
Additional reports claimed that there was some tension while the actresses were filming the hit ABC comedy.
According to one person in the know, there is also some raw emotion between the stars because of the way Sofia Vergara’s career has exploded while Julie Bowen’s projects are scarce.
The insider, who talked to Closer, explained the following: “The amazing thing about Sofía and Julie is how much work they’ve actually been able to do together given how radically different their personalities are – they are total opposites in every way.”
The person went on to say why Vergara has exploded on the big and little screens for the following reasons: “Julie is spontaneous, frazzled, and free-spirited. Sofia is a cold, calculating long-term planner who relishes getting into the details of a complex business deal.”
After Modern Family ended, Sofia Vergara landed the golden ticket as a judge on America’s Got Talent.
She landed a role in Despicable Me 4 and received significant buzz for the critically acclaimed Netflix miniseries Griselda.
The source stated: “It’s definitely been frustrating for Julie to see Sofía put her keen instincts to work in the years since Modern Family ended.”
The insider continued: “Julie has never been able to generate that same kind of heat for herself because it’s hard for her to think years and years in advance the way Sofía can.”
Vergara made history when she was nominated for the Lead Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie category for her role in Griselda during the 2024 Emmy Awards.
The Colombian-born actress is the first-ever Latina to earn the nod. The source claimed: “With Sofía made a splash at the Emmys this year because of her amazing hit for Netflix, Griselda. I wonder why not many of her old Modern Family co-stars cheered her on since she has now decisively emerged as the star with the biggest long-term future out of that entire cast.”
The person stated that Julie Bowen is not thrilled with how things are going and would love some help from her former costar, but she knows she will not get it.
They added: “But Julie wants her own post Modern moment, and it’s been a real struggle for her to find it. Sofia‘s not exactly doing anything to help!”
Vergara is making some huge moves.
