Modern Family Dad Praises Life in Utah

Modern Family has gotta be one of the best shows of the last 20 years or so. 

Especially the early seasons.

I mean you had Al Bundy as the grandpa, Ty Burrell's character was great, the gay couple was very funny especially the big fella.

I miss that show.

I always knew Burrell, who played Phil Dunphy, had ties to Utah but I didn't know that he moved his kids to Utah in 2020.

There's an article in People from a couple days ago that talks about it: (LINK TO FULL ARTICLE)

"Ty Burrell is digging his new life in Utah — so much so that he says he has no regrets about leaving Los Angeles.

"It's just been spectacular," the actor, 57, tells PEOPLE in an exclusive interview of Salt Lake City, where he lives with his wife Holly and their two teenage daughters, Frances and Greta."

Good for Dunphy.

I guess he made the full move to SLC when the show ended. He said, "I don't have any regrets. It's been lovely and a great place to raise the kids." (LINK TO FULL ARTICLE)

I think he might still own a couple bars in SLC too.

I always like to hear stories of Hollywood stars who get the heck out of there. Gene Wilder did that, Jeff Daniels moved to Michigan, Harrison Ford is in Jackson Hole.

This is great. Hollywood is a hell hole and I'm always happy to see people vacate and get some fresh air.
