During Sofia’s appearance on Live With Kelly and Mark on Friday, the actress talked about reuniting with her Modern Family cast members.
The entire cast, plus co-creators Christopher Lloyd and Steven Levitan, were there, except Ty Burrell, who played Phil Dunphy on the show.
The hosts asked where Ty was since only a photo of his head was in the photo, posted by Sofia on Instagram.
When the photo was shown on the daytime talk show, Sofia said, “It looks like Ty passed away.”

Kelly Ripa, Mark Consuelos and the entire audience burst into laughter at Sofia’s confession.
Ty, however, did not die and Sofia, 51, revealed where he was.
She said he had surgery and was recovering, and that he doesn’t live in Los Angeles so he couldn’t attend.
“Something happened to him, because he lives in Deer Valley or somewhere. He had surgery, an accident, so he didn’t show up”, revealed Sofia.
“He didn’t show up, but we had a picture of him, so it’s okay.”
The reunion took place in November 2023.
A LATE MEETING
Sofia revealed that two weeks after they finished filming the final episodes, the Covid-19 pandemic hit, so they didn’t see each other for years.
The co-stars saw each other five days a week for 11 years when they were on the set of the show.
“Those of us who lived in Los Angeles would see each other at a park or a birthday party, but we could never all be together,” Sofia said.
“And we finally did it, and it was over three years, almost four years after we finished. It was really exciting.”

FAMILY MEANING?
Some members of the Modern Family cast reunited in a new commercial.
Ty, Julie Bowen, 54, and Eric Stonestreet, 52, appeared in new WhatsApp ads earlier this month.
It depicted the three of them in their characters from the show, sitting on the couch with their eyes glued to their phones.
Eric, who played Cameron Tucker, spoke to Ty and Julie, who played Claire Dunphy, about a new photo of his twins that he would share with them.
Jesse Tyler Ferguson, who played Mitchell Pritchett, entered the room, asking to see the photo, but Phil said he was in the group chat, to which Claire and Cameron nervously looked at him for revealing their private conversation.
Mitchell immediately went looking for the photo, but quickly realized it wasn’t in the group chat he was part of.
“You started a family chat without me? Too bad!” he shouted, pointing at the guilty trio.
However, the trio said Mitchell had an old phone and his features meant they didn’t include it.
A man who was painting the house shouted through the window that chatting via WhatsApp would solve the family’s problem.
The commercial ended with Cameron and Mitchell lying in bed, happily browsing their new WhatsApp chat.
“This is fun. I still can’t believe you shut me out,” Mitchell told her husband.
“We may have cut you from here, but never from here,” Cam said, touching his heart.
Modern Family ran for 11 seasons on ABC, from September 2009 to April 2020.
