Sarah Hyland claims Matthew Prokop’s mother refused to help her before she secured a restraining order against him.
The ‘Modern Family’ star, who was recently granted a temporary protection order against her ex-boyfriend, 24, after claiming she feared for her life following their split last month, alleges in court documents that his mother said her son would kill himself if she dumped him and refused to try to convince him to seek treatment for his issues.
The 23-year-old star said she received a shocking text message from his mother after she asked her to come to their home in Los Angeles to "help me get him help."
According to the MailOnline, Sarah states in court documents: "She sent me a text stating that if I broke up with him, he would kill himself, that it would be my fault and that she was not coming.
"I let her know that I was scared for my personal safety and had reached the point where I could not take it anymore and that I was going to end the relationship whether she came or not."
Julie Bowen, who plays the young actress’ mother on the comedy series, helped her stage an intervention and end her five-year romance with Matthew before she secured a temporary protection order.
The ‘High School Musical 3: Senior Year’ actor allegedly checked into rehab following their split in mid-August and Sarah claims in court documents that she was advised by the director of his treatment facility to obtain the restraining order before his release last weekend.
