Modern Family cast reunites as fans notice star actor missing

Modern Family stars reunited in a video shared by Sofia Vergara - but fans noticed a key member of the cast was missing from the lineup.

The actor, who plays Gloria, shared a clip of the cast on Wednesday (15 November) looking at a picture of their co-star above a fireplace.

As the cast member was unable to attend the event in person, their on-screen family held up his picture instead - leaving some social media users fearful that he had passed away.

It comes after Jesse Tyler Ferguson, who plays Mitchell, revealed that a spinoff script has been written.
