Since her family airport brawl over the summer, Nikki Blonsky has turned to her rock to help get her through the nasty ordeal - Zac Efron.

"I love him with every inch of my body and soul," Blonsky told Entertainment Tonight in a recent interview. "He's stayed in touch and he has been so supportive through everything that I've gone through in my life; he is one of the best, best influences and people that I can ask to have in my life."

Blonsky also opened up about her family and coping with the difficult situation. "We're just happy to be back together. My family is my life."

Both the actress and her father were arrested in early July on charges of assault with the family of Top Model alum Bianca Golden when a brawl erupted at the Providenciales International Airport in Turks and Caicos over saving seats. - Gina DiNunno
