Disney Junior animated series
Sofia The First has been officially brought to an end, and its star Ariel Winter recently
took to social media to bid the beloved character farewell.
A true role-model for young girl, which is the main sentiment behind Winter's recent Instagram post. While her most well-known role at the moment is that of Alex Dunphy in sitcom
Modern Family, the role of Sofia is evidently more meaningful for Winter - as you can see in her Instagram post below:
It's taken me so long to post about the ending of Sofia The First because for a large part of my life, it is a project that has been so near and dear to my heart and I needed time to formulate what I wanted to say," Winter wrote. For the past 7 or so years, I've been so lucky to play Princess Sofia, as well as work with the amazing team that made this project as special as it is.
Sofia is an incredibly strong, intelligent, kind and spunky young girl who is never afraid to take on any and all challenges that are thrown at her," Winter continued. "She is a character that I am so proud of, considering I have young nieces, nephews, and god children who are influenced by the characters they idolize on TV.
The animated series followed Disney's first child princess: Sofia. She's an ordinary girl who becomes a princess overnight when her mom marries the king. The adventurous young girl, first introduced in the 2012 TV movie "
Sofia the First: Once Upon a Princess," must learn how to adjust to royal life. Offering Sofia words of wisdom are classic princesses -- including Ariel, Belle and Jasmine -- who make special appearances in which they teach Sofia that it isn't having a title that imparts royal demeanor; it's that having the characteristics of honesty, loyalty, compassion and grace make one worthy of the role.
