Julie Bowenis opening up about getting plastic surgery after years of wanting to “fix” her stomach.
On Wednesday’s episode ofThe View, theModern Familyalum, 52, revealed she recently got a cosmetic procedure done, something she’s wanted since she gave birth to her twin sons Gus and John in 2009.
The actress recalled being pregnant with her boys when she landed her role on the ABC sitcom, noting how much her body changed after they were born.
“I also was pregnant on the pilot of Modern Family with my twins, who are now 13,” Bowen said. “All I cared about was these little kids, I didn’t even notice anything else that was going on. I had a life and boobs I could tuck into my shoes. I was nursing!”
