Julie Bowen looks forward to the future of recently separated actress Sofia Vergara. During a conversation with E! News, the “Modern Family” star said the Colombian actress would rise whether she is single or in a relationship.

“Everything she does, she does with grace,” Julie told the publication. “And she rises above, and she just goes forward. She’s warm and generous and giving to everybody around her. I have no doubt that if she wishes to be in a relationship, she will be, but she sure doesn’t need one.”
