"Modern Family" star Ariel Winter has hit out at online body shamers and asked them to stop the hate against her.
The 18-year-old actress took to Instagram and challenged her bullies to become more accepting of themselves and others.
"Every time someone bullies me online, it gives me a chance to re-emphasize to my fans, and even myself, how important self-acceptance is.
"Those who say such harsh things on my Instagram, thank you for this opportunity - but the question I ask myself every time I read the mean comments is if this is how you talk to a stranger online, I can online imagine how cruelly you speak to yourself," she wrote.
Winter went on writing, "Stop the hate. Accept all that you are and know your flaws are what make you the PERFECT you. I love my fans and I love my bullies for what they truly NEED is love.
"Take the high road, there is less traffic. XO (sic)," she added.
