Sarah Hyland Thanks Julie Bowen for Her Support During Hyland Leaving Abusive Relationship

[@trinaq]

So emotional, I love that Julie is like a mother figure to Sarah in real life, and encouraged her to leave her abusive ex.

[@encanta411]

Julie was the same with Ariel with her abusive family.

[@leprovokateur7745]

What makes this even more wholesome was an Interview of Julie like 3-4 days ago saying how close she was with the cast then pointing Sarah in a picture and saying « specially with this little one »

[@LoLyse]

That made me cry.

[@ajay1589]

This just made me realize that a lot of animal abandonment and dumping at shelters could be because of these situations. Survivors know that, in their absence, the next thing to be abused or neglected is their beloved pet and have no other option. Never even realized this component! We gotta do better.

[@SL-lz9jr]

And a bunch of other reasons. Lots of people, for a variety of reasons, end up in unstable lives and cannot care for their pets. They love them but do not have the means to keep them. People escaping family violence, community violence, natural disasters, or homelessness. So many ways one’s life can be upended. :(

[@LorenaFlag]

As a survivor who couldn't leave my situation for years because of my pets, this made me cry. Thank you for helping women in need that have pets. It is already hard to do so, even so with our furry children.

[@dianarodriguezd1567]

Oh the fact that you had to stay there for your dogs it tells me the beautiful soul you have ❤ hope you are healing and live a happily life

[@dreamsteddybearsmaster]

The fact you're still here on this earth speaks volumes...in the darkest times sometimes it's the most unexpected people who will reach out to you and show you what the light is! They're not all in furry forms luckily even if sometimes our furry little friends/family members prove to be the best part of our lives!

[@keshiaanjani2305]

Omg I was in a similar situation, although it wasn't with a husband or boyfriend. It was my grandmother from my father's side. In my early 20s I lost my home due to a flood. I had to move in with my grandmother. Took my dog with me. She was a horrible bully who abused me emotionally. I wanted so desperately to get out of there, but knew I couldn't afford a place that was suitable for my dog's needs. So I stayed because it was the best place for my dog. It was so hard. But I cared more about my dog's well being than my own happiness. I loved her so much. ❤

[@dreamsteddybearsmaster]

@@keshiaanjani2305 Glad you're still with us and you overcame it with flying colours! Stay strong!!!

[@ceterisparibus8966]

Why couldn't you leave because of your pets?

[@brettteply1207]

I think while they were filming Modern Family, while Sarah was with Matt and even though she didn’t tell anyone about her pain. Julie knew something was very wrong

[@dreamsteddybearsmaster]

Signs of a true friend! Think I saw a video popped up where she talked about the various challenges she's gone through over the years right after I finished watching this

[@h.b16]

I love her. She’s so sincere. A real powerful woman.

[@jenelphaba7558]

She also help Ariel when he mother was abusing her and refusing her daughter to eat as she thought she was fat. The whole cast was there for her

[@cogden87]

If you are in a similar situation please check with your local animal shelters. I worked at one that would care for and house animals of domestic abuse survivors until they could get them back. You are not alone. There is always someone who wants to help you.

[@leaveittoweaver4525]

Perhaps Blake Lively should've gone to this before her press run.. this is the reality.

[@dreamsteddybearsmaster]

@@leaveittoweaver4525 Well I guess we all know she shot herself in the foot...quite a few times

[@pp-vf8ls]

with Ryan?

[@MirimC7]

Not to defend her or anything, in some ways your right. However this is an example of real life where Sarah is an actress who experienced domestic violence in real life. Blake Lively just acted in a movie. It’s difficult to understand what people go through. Sarah even says it herself in her speech. You have to remember that when Actors go on Press Junkets, they are told what to do or say. How do you know that she wasn’t given the material by the Producers and the Company who made the movie? Sometimes we have to remember that these people are actors and they aren’t always in control. Just because they are in the lead and make all the money! I think it was a wasted opportunity too because it could have been a great opportunity for a huge message to be sent. But Justin Baldoni made mistakes as well. I think they all missed an opportunity over ridiculous reasons and rumours, which are just that, made it worse. You all keep saying Blake Lively could learn from this. Well so can all of you. Because all anyone can talk about is Blake Lively and her behaviour or what she is doing or not doing, that you haven’t even noticed you’re not talking about it either!! So what makes you any different from her? This here is someone who experienced it 1st hand and it should not be compared to a ridiculous, rumour filled fiction movie when we can learn from the people who are the true victims. We can hear what women and men can do in a situation. In real life. So listen to that. Stop worrying about someone who played a part in a movie and you don’t like. Just go and look up these foundations and see if you can help out in anyway. That would be the greatest thing ever. Purina is an amazing brand and they are heavily based on TikTok so check them out.

[@Elliott1314]

​@CaitlinM778 My dude, how are you comparing the commenter to Blake when the commenter is a random person and Blake has a big platform which she used to promote hair care products instead of discussing DV

[@dreamsteddybearsmaster]

@@Elliott1314 IKR haircare products that wouldn't do shit if someone was being abused and was traumatised and stressed...

[@Tomy_Yon]

Love how they stayed friends after the series. ❤

[@thatgirl9532]

@@dreamsteddybearsmaster She was the one to help Sarah escape from that relationship, you need to keep up!

[@dreamsteddybearsmaster]

@@thatgirl9532 And I already know that? You need to learn to be more kind and not such a massive smartass. You know what they say about women who don't help other women but instead drag them down...

[@dreamsteddybearsmaster]

And you need to learn what kindness is @thatgirl9532 . What a pity , that despite what your username may indicate of being a Girls Girl your behaviour very much makes it crystal clear that you contradict it. And before you get my responding comment deleted again, you know what they say about about hell & other people and women who don't help other women but instead drag them down...

[@BatmanFan76]

This was actually really sweet, tasteful and well done. Sarah truly is that one special woman who can make a difference.

[@PeaceLovePaperbacks]

I love Sarah and the relationship she has with the modern family cast truly is family. I'm so relieved she was able to leave and i hope this changes minds and hearts.

[@AA-qb7ni]

This is so wholesome. I love how the cast is like a real family

[@ameyafutnani4569]

Thank you Sarah Hyland for surviving, sharing your story and helping others survive and thrive with their pets after abuse. I say as a survivor holding my pets near at this moment.

[@anonymoususer12345-o]

Sarah, you are incredible, so talented, and deserving of this award, this is evident in how you delivered such an incredibly emotional speech.

[@JoeDuda-oj4kf]

Sarah Hyland is a beautiful strong powerful positive woman she had a great relationship with everybody on the set of Modern Family

[@cardimomchai]

You're definitely supporting me Sarah ! I'm a survivor of it also and I can relate so much to this. I know if my Mom was here she would be holding my hand all the way. This touched my heart 💜

[@AroonYousufi]

She's so real for stating that the only being she felt safe with was her Dog Been there, done that! Not to trauma dump, But the reason i am here today and got through 2022 and 2023 was because of my dogs. i Even bought the pills at one point but the reason i didnt take them is because there was no one to take care of my dogs

[@MaayanSchneider]

Glad you're still here!

[@vhbc]

Sarah is an incredibly inspiring woman, I hope she knows that. Hilarious, talented, was able to battle physical health issues, coming out strong from an abusive relationship, and incredibly gorgeous and wise. I hope she knows that deep within her.

[@dreamsteddybearsmaster]

If that was Julie in the hot pink 🩷 👗 dress at the end, who came up and kissed Sarah's shoulder then Sarah chose the perfect outfit to give Julie that avenue!!!

Matt Prokop is such a foul piece of shit. He was arrested for assaulting his new partner not long ago. Sarah is incredible and such a strong person. There is a special place in hell reserved for abusers.
