Ariel Winter and Sterling Beaumon Couple Confirmed? Dating Rumors Continue

The Modern Family star Ariel Winter dished out an explanation about her relationship with Sterling Beaumon. However, the public doesn't seem to acknowledge this as rumors about them continue following their 'date' in public. The two was spotted leaving The Nice Guy restaurant in West Hollywood and since then, many are convinced that there is more to the supposed 'friendship' than meets the eye.

During the said date in the restaurant, the actress was sporting a black top, jeans and boots while Sterling also had the same low-profile outfit as he was seen wearing a black cap and jacket. It was clear that they didn't want to stand out. The night was long because they were seen going home together.

According to Winter's defense, "We're not dating. We see each other every day but no, we're like literally best friends." However, this didn't sell to the public as witnesses claimed that they stuck to each other the whole night in another venue - that of the Variety's Power of Young Hollywood party. Spectators claimed that the way they behaved didn't seem like an innocent display of friendship. Moreover, it was clear to the sources that they can't get enough of each other as they chatted throughout the night.

Ariel Winter just broke up with her boyfriend of two years, Laurent Claude Gaudette, and this might have caused the longing for another lover. As mentioned, she claimed that she and Sterling are just 'literally best friends' and true enough, it seems that Winter found comfort in the person of Sterling since their meeting in a Nintendo commercial way back 2010. The 6-year friendship definitely triumphs her previous 2-year relationship.

Added to that is the fact that the potential lovers are increasing the speculations by going out a number of times recently.

Well, if they are obviously making their relationship known through those seemingly innocent gestures, we might as well expect something bigger in the future.
