Modern Family actor on why he ‘left Hollywood

  • Ty Burrell, who starred as Phil Dunphy in the hit sitcom Modern Family, relocated from Los Angeles to Salt Lake City, Utah, with his family after the show concluded in 2020.
  • Burrell described the move as "spectacular" and a "great place to raise the kids," despite initially finding the outdoorsy lifestyle an adjustment.
  • Ariel Winter, who played Burrell's on-screen daughter, also decided to leave Los Angeles after the series wrapped in April 2020.
  • Winter's decision stemmed from severe childhood trauma, including negative press about her appearance from a young age and a difficult relationship with her mother.
  • She clarified that she has not left the acting industry but moved from Los Angeles as the city held "not-great memories" for her.
