"I'm really loving her. She's so adorable, and her performance is amazing!!! #SVU21 #WinterIsComingToSVU.”

WINTER EXPLAINS THAT REAGAN IS "SPECIAL TO ME"

That can perhaps explain why she gave such an excellent performance onscreen. "Reagan is wildly different from any character I've played," Winter wrote on Instagram.

"She's special to me because she's a realistic person. She's not perfect, she's still figuring herself out." She continued by writing,

"She likes to go out and drink and experiment, and like many of us, she struggles with accepting herself and being honest."

The "Sofia the First" star further explains that it was a bit challenging to bring Reagan "to life" because "I have a fear of failure and a hard time relinquishing control."
