Julie Bowen has praised her "awesome" 'Modern Family' co-star Sarah Hyland following the young star's split from her abusive ex-boyfriend.
The 44-year-old actress has shown her support to her on-screen daughter as she revealed that Sarah, 23, is "doing great" since her dramatic break-up with Matt Prokop.
Talking at the Baby2Baby event in California on Saturday (08.11.14), Julie - who plays Claire Dunphy on the ABC show - shared: "Oh my God, Sarah is so great. She's an angel. Just love her. I love her.
"Sarah is not even 25, and she's already way ahead of where I ever was. She's awesome."
Sarah split from her 24-year-old ex-boyfriend in September 2014 amid accusations that he had been abusive towards her. The star (who plays Haley Dunphy on 'Modern Family') had been dating Matt for five years before ending their relationship after she took out a permanent restraining order against her former love.
The actress also revealed in court documents that Matt had been physically and verbally abusive towards her.
Julie - who originally intervened when she suspected that Sarah was not coping in the relationship - admitted to Us Weekly magazine that she felt she had to help her co-star out.
She said: "I'm just nosy. I stick my nose in anything and everything. I love my kids, my fake kids and my real kids.
"If anyone needs help, I'm a soft touch."

Justin Bieber brought his Xbox with him on an night out.
The 20-year-old 'Beauty and the Beat' singer reportedly brought the game console with him for Pastor Carl Lentz birthday party, which was held at Jay Z's 40/40 club on Thursday evening (06.11.14).
According to reports, the tween heartthrob retreated to a private room where he hooked his Xbox up to the club's TV system, taking it in turns to play 'NBA 2K15' and 'FIFA' with his fellow party guests.
A source told New York Post's Page Six: "Bieber was a lot better at 'Fifa' and came out with one or two victories."
However, Justin decided to celebrate with some ice cream - not video games - after he took home the Best Male trophy at the 2014 MTV Europe Music Awards last night (09.11.14) for the fifth consecutive time.
Uunable to make the ceremony - which took place in Glasgow, Scotland - Justin thanked his fans via video.
He said: "I just won Best Male at the EMAs so I just wanted to thank all my fans out there, you guys are incredible. I'm at CVS so I'm going to get some fudgesicles."
Justin also captioned the video - which he shared on via Twitter - with a heartfelt message. He wrote: "Just won Best Male at the #EMA's! Thank you all so much. Big things coming. Love you."

Jourdan Dunn has better dance moves than Cara Delevingne and Karlie Kloss.
The trio of models, all of whom are good friends, all enjoy partying, but Jourdan, 24, insists she's the most talented on the dancefloor.
She explained: "I have the best dance moves out of all of us. Anything that's R&B or hip-hop with a good beat, then, boom. I'm up and dancing. I don't understand people who go to a party and stand by the walls; I love dancing. But Cara - she is the last to leave the dancefloor every time. She feeds off energy, music and people. It's one of her many amazing traits."
Jourdan also revealed that Karlie - who is the godmother of her son Riley - has proven to be unimpressive when it comes to handing out gifts.
She told the Mail on Sunday: "Karlie's rubbish! She just sends out her own brand of cookies."
Jourdan also said her sense of perspective has changed since having her son in 2009.
She said: "Before I had my son, my job was something I did because the money was good. But when I had Riley, I realised that I was taking things for granted; that I have this amazing career which I can actually use to do good.
"I'm now an ambassador for the Sickle Cell Disease Association of America. I can support my son and give him a great start in life and send him to a good school. He has given my life a focus."

Elizabeth McGovern says losing her sex appeal was "liberating".
The 53-year-old 'Downton Abbey' star has revealed that she is pleased people don't look at her as a sexual being because it feels freeing.
She explained: "Losing your sex appeal is no bad thing. People look at me in a way that is not as immediately sexual as they did when I was young. I find that liberating. You can operate on a different level, without having to contend with that dynamic all the time."
However, Elizabeth - who plays Cora Crawley in the ITV period drama - admitted that she sometimes forgets that she has reached her 50s.
She said: "I don't see myself as middle-aged, and whenever anyone refers to me as such, I find it shocking, but not offensive. I feel exactly the same as when I was 18, except with more confidence and more of a secure grounding under my feet. I feel better."
Meanwhile, it was revealed recently that the cast of 'Downton Abbey' are planning to release a Christmas album.
Titled 'Christmas at Downton Abbey', the project has been backed by classical music label Rhino, according to The Sun newspaper.

Khloe Kardashian "lives through" Kylie Jenner.
The 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' star has revealed that she wishes she could be as daring with her hair colour as her 17-year-old step-sister.
Speaking at the launch of 'Hairfinity', she said: "I love that Kylie changes her [hair] all the time ...
"But, especially with Kylie dying her hair and doing all that stuff, I live through her and I wish I could dye my hair all those colours. I don't know if I could pull it off, but I love it."
The 30-year-old television personality also revealed that she "loved" when Kylie died her hair blue just before sister Kim Kardashian was due to marry Kanye West.
Meanwhile, Khloe admitted that she suffered from hair loss, following the death of her father, Robert Kardashian, in 2003.
She told EntertainmentWise: "I've had a really hard time with my hair and growing it because I lost a lot of my hair when my father died and I actually stole the 'Hairfinity' idea from Kim, who got all these bottles sent to her.
"I thought it was worth a try and it worked, my hair has grown and it has been thicker."

Harry Styles is "lucky" Taylor Swift wrote good songs about him.
The 20-year-old singer - who briefly dated the 'Shake It Off' hitmaker two years ago - has admitted he was pleased with the songs she had written about him.
When asked during a Google Hangout about having songs penned about him, he said: "We write from personal experience, and I think everyone does, so it would be hypocritical of us to be like, 'Oh you can't write about us.'
"And they're really good. They're good songs. So I'm really lucky in that sense."
Meanwhile, Harry Styles has recently insisted that the gender of his other halves doesn't matter to him.
The One Direction heartthrob believes personality is more important in a prospective partner.
When asked what traits they look for in a girlfriend, band mate Liam Payne said: "Female. That's an important trait."
However, Harry joked: "[It's] not that important!"
Instead, the 'Steal My Girl' hitmaker explained that he believed a "sense of humour" and "being nice to him" were the best qualities.
Rumours about Harry's sexuality have been circulating ever since the band found fame in 2010 after being put together on talent show, the 'X Factor'.
However, the star denies he is bisexual.
In an interview in 2013, Harry said: "Bisexual? Me? I don't think so. I'm pretty sure I'm not,"

Matt Damon doesn't need money to have fun.
The 'Bourne Identity' star has revealed that him and his 'Good Will Hunting' co-star, Ben Affleck, still had fun when they were young, despite being desperate to get their acting break.
Speaking of their time as youngsters, the 44-year-old actor said: "Those times were fun! We had a great time!
"We were young, we didn't have the kinds of fears that you have when you get into your forties if you haven't gotten to where you want to go. We were in our twenties and we just had a blast!"
42-year-old Ben also revealed that being in a group of similar people looking for their big break made it easier for them.
He told People magazine: "We were around a community of people that we really liked.
"All of us were trying to do something similar. You didn't think of it as 'struggling' at that point, you were just trying to break in, and that was great."
Matt also revealed that the pair used to have lunch together in their high school canteen where they would discuss "business".
He joked: "We used to have business lunches together in high school when we had no business to talk about."

Her first contract, as obtained by TMZ, revealed that for the show's first season, Ariana would be paid $9000 per episode.

The contract also allegedly promised that no one else on set would get a better dressing room than her.
Meanwhile, Ariana recently spoke out about the difficulties in shaking off her Cat Valentine alter ego so she could follow a music career.
Speaking about using the music video for 'The Way' to rid herself of her character, she said: "I was like, 'Guys, there has to be a really distinct difference between me and my character.
"I dyed my hair back to brown. I made out with a rapper [Mac Miller] in the video. I made the point I wanted to make. And I was excited to do so after so many years of pretending to be somebody else in front of a lot of people."
