How did your own family life help you prepare for Modern Family?
My family is somewhat like my TV family. My parents are hilarious and are opposites, exactly like Phil and Claire. My mom is like, "We're on a schedule! We have to get things done." And my dad is like, "Hey, we can relax."

Do you think of any of your cast mates as family now?
Ed O'Neill is definitely like a grandfather to me. He's really sweet. And Nolan is a lot like a little brother to me.

Do you have any brothers and sisters?
I have a brother and sister. They're a lot older than me so everyone always asks, "Same mother and father?"
