After months of speculation, "Modern Family" star Ariel Winter and actor Levi Meaden finally confirmed they are a couple. The two made their relationship public by walking the red carpet together at the TrevorLIVE Los Angeles Fundraiser in Beverly Hills.

According to The Independent, "Modern Family" start Ariel Winter fully supports The Trevor Project by saying, "[the] Trevor Project is so amazing for LGBTO youth. I think that it's really important for young people to be there supporting and speaking out and continuing with their fight. I think that it's really important for me to be here." The Trevor Project is a national organization that aims to provide crisis intervention and suicide intervention services to the LGBT (lesbian gay bisexual transgender) youth.

Winter also showed clips of them having fun in her Instagram story.

In September, Ariel Winter shot down rumors she was dating childhood friend Sterling Beaunon with a tweet, "Everyone thinking I'm taken when I'm over here single AF." Winter ended her relationship with her boyfriend of two years, Laurent Claude Gaudette last June.
