FYI -- Shanelle was in the cast when the pics were taken. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=\"1207-shanelle-workman-globephotos-4\" src=\"http://ll-media.tmz.com/2012/12/07/1207-shanelle-workman-globephotos-8.jpg\" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the cease and desist letter Workman's attorney says, \"The attached email contains pictures which raise the question, to Ms. Workman, whether Shanelle is fit to be the guardian of a teenager.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As we previously reported, Hay had claimed Ariel's mother sent him &lt;em&gt;nude&lt;/em&gt; photos which she wanted leaked to the public -- presumably to smear Shanelle ... who's taken guardianship of Ariel in the wake of allegations Chrystal was abusing the \"Modern Family\" star.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hay has responded to Chrystal's letter with a letter of his own in which he claims Chrystal herself \"described these photos to me as 'nude photos' before I even saw them.\" He also points out the photos \"expose intimate parts of [Shanelle's] body.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hay closes his letter with a major jab at Chrystal, saying ... \"I feel terrible that a 14-year-old child has to suffer the consequences of her own mother's unfortunate decisions.\""^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
