Sarah Hyland played Haley, the eldest Dunphy child in "Modern Family." She had booked the role back in 2009 shortly after moving to Los Angeles. "When I signed on for the pilot, though, I never could have predicted we'd be on the air for 11 years," she told Glamour. Hyland went on to explain that a lot had changed over the years and that she learned a lot while on the show. "It's been amazing to have Julie Bowen and Sofia Vergara to look up to as role models because they're so funny, smart, talented, and kind," she gushed. Bowen, for instance, taught her to pick her battles, while Vergara taught her makeup tricks.
"Modern Family" also helped Hyland make a name for herself in the industry. Her plans for the future are to keep acting and get into producing — but she also knows she needs a little break. "While I can't wait to act and produce some more, right now my life is about staying safe, staying home, staying healthy, staying creative, and learning new things," she continued.
In August 2022, Hyland married "Bachelorette" alum Wells Adams, and many of her former "Modern Family" co-stars attended her wedding in support, making for a mini cast reunion!
