Modern Family cast accidentally spark rumors Ty Burrell is dead with one photo

It’s been three years since Modern Family ended. The ABC show garnered a cult-like following over the course of its 11 seasons. Hence fans were over the moon to see the show’s entire cast reunite recently. Everybody from the main cast was present at this reunion, except one – Ty Burrell, aka Phil Dunphy.

Ty Burrell is not dead in 2023

If you’re among the fans who panicked and thought Ty Burrell was dead after seeing the Modern Family reunion picture, you aren’t alone. However, the good news is that the actor, 56, is very much alive in 2023.

Although Ty does not have any social media accounts, he has been busy working on other projects since Modern Family came to a close. The actor voiced Jack Harris in Duncanville from 2020 to 2022. He has also appeared in a 2023 episode of the Table Read podcast.

For those wondering about Ty’s family, he has been married to his wife Holly Burrell for 23 years. The couple are parents to two daughters – Frances Burrell and Greta Burrell. Like her husband, Holly also steers clear of social media.

Modern Family cast fools fans with reunion picture

After seeing the Modern Family cast’s reunion picture, many fans rushed to X (formerly known as Twitter) to share how, at first, the picture got them thinking Burrell had died.

One fan noted with a crying emoji “Okay, the fact that they’re holding Ty’s picture and how the flower arrangement looks like it’s on top of a casket? Omg, I thought it was a funeral.”

“The color scheme, flower arrangement, and picture frame had me thinking Ty Burrell was dead the way my heart almost stopped,” said a second person.

In another hilarious video, the cast kept the framed picture of Phil above the fireplace. All the cast members then began saying the words “We miss you Ty” out loud. This sent fans into a panic even further.

Actress Ariel Winter, who played Alex Dunphy on the show, addressed the hilarious reunion picture via her Instagram. She wrote, “I can see how this looks but Ty is alive and well I PROMISE. He’ll definitely be there for the next one.”
