LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: The ‘Modern Family’ star Julie Bowen is facing internet scrutiny after she dropped Taylor Swift’s name while describing her and Sofia Vergara’s divorce.
During an interview with People, Bowen said that she wished the ‘Lavender Haze’ singer was there during her divorce from her ex-husband Scott Phillips in 2018.
Bowen also commented that Sofia Vergara is doing well following her divorce from Joe Manganiello in July.
‘She doesn't need Taylor Swift to take her to a game’
During an interview with People at the Step Up Inspiration Awards in Los Angeles on Friday, October 6, Bowen commented on Vergara, saying, "Her Instagram says it all... Sofía has always had such a wonderful family that surrounds her and wonderful friends."
She further added, “She doesn't need Taylor Swift to take her to a game. She's good.”
The ‘Boston Legal’ star continued that all the other Hollywood stars undergoing divorce have Taylor Swift as a support system.
She claimed, “But I'm super happy that all those other girls are going to games with T Swifty.”
