The set of ABC’s acclaimed sitcom Modern Family was celebrated for its humor and camaraderie, yet tabloid media often sensationalized stories of discord among the cast members.

One of the most talked-about rumors involved a supposed rivalry between Julie Bowen and Sofía Vergara, the show’s leading actresses. As the series aired, stories emerged suggesting that Bowen and Vergara were in constant competition and harbored ill feelings towards each other.

Bowen has recently addressed these rumors, revealing the truth behind the speculation.

Julie Bowen Sets the Record Straight

In a recent appearance on the 90210MG podcast, Julie Bowen took the opportunity to debunk the myths surrounding her relationship with Sofía Vergara.

Bowen compared the reported feud to the classic comic characters Betty and Veronica, suggesting that media narratives often pit women against each other in a zero-sum game of attention. Bowen expressed her disappointment with the press for perpetuating such a narrative, stating:

“I felt it on Modern Family. The press kept trying to make me and Sofía sort of Betty and Veronica. [They] were determined to pit us against each other, like we hated each other. There’s this scarcity mindset that there’s only one woman that can be happy at a time. I was like, ‘Oh no, I love Sofía. I love how different we are. She is funny and self-effacing and bawdy, and she loves life, and she loves dancing and eating cake and all these things.’ I found it to be really disappointing on the part of the press to have that narrative perpetuated”, as quoted in a report by Movieweb.

Bowen clarified that she never viewed Vergara as a rival. On the contrary, she admired her co-star and appreciated the lessons learned from working alongside her. Bowen noted that Vergara’s presence on set taught her “what it is to be a really powerful, completely-herself woman.”
