A star of the hit comedy Modern Family has come out as bisexual in a new social media post.
Aubrey Anderson-Emmons – who played Lily, the adoptive daughter of Cameron (Eric Stonestreet) and Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) took to TikTok on Sunday to reveal the news.
She did so in a rather humorous fashion, using the audio from a Season 4 episode of Modern Family called The Future Dunphys, where a young Lily claims she’s gay.
The actress shared a video of her lip-syncing to the scene where she declares, ‘No I’m not, I’m gay! I’m gay!’ after Gloria (Sofia Vergara) insists she’s Vietnamese.
Anderson-Emmons captioned the video, ‘People keep joking so much abt me being being gay when I literally am (I’m bi).’
She captioned the Sunday night post, ‘hehe happy pride month and to all a good night,’ with the hashtags #modernfamily #lily #pridemonth #pride #fyp #bi.
Pride Month is more than halfway in the books for 2025, with a young actress using this time to come out as bisexual.

Anderson-Emmons was just four years old when she joined Modern Family as Lily during the show’s third season in 2011.
The actress made history also at four years of age, when she became the youngest actor ever to win a Screen Actors Guild Award, as part of the show’s ensemble cast.
She also appeared as herself on Bill Nye Saves the World in 2017 and on a 2018 episode of Paradise Run.
Last month, she shared a video to her 2.6 million TikTok followers that shed some light on growing up in the spotlight.
‘People ask things like, “How did you know you wanted to do that when you were four? How do you know you love something when you’re so young?” And the truth is, you don’t,’ she admitted.
Aubrey insisted that she was ‘not forced into anything,’ adding, ‘My mom wasn’t like, “You’re going to do this,” it was not like that.’
‘I was not abused on set or anything like that, but you don’t know what you’re getting yourself into at four years old when you sign a contract to be on a show,’ she said.
She also admitted that the show was basically ‘all she knew’ while opening up on facing harsh criticism at such a young age.

‘Also, being on a TV show from a young age, people really took digs at my acting choices or they would say I’m a bad actor,’ she recalled.
‘I don’t feel like I need to prove myself to other people… but it was really hard for me to grow up with so many people’s opinions around me.’
She has only appeared in a 2024 short film called Tallwinds since Modern Family went off the air, though she has been teasing new music.
The actress and musician shared a snippet of what appears to be a music video, teasing, ‘New music coming soon!’
