'Modern Family': The Cast Ranked By Net Worth (2024)

Highlights

  • Modern Family stars have amassed significant wealth from the hit show, boosting their net worths substantially.
  • Some cast members continued to work on various projects post-Modern Family, adding to their fortunes.
  • Sofia Vergara topped the list with a staggering $180 million net worth, showing major success post-show.

Landing on a hit sitcom is the dream of many performers, which is why the pilot season is such a big deal in Hollywood. Some shows catch on and become hits, while others are scrapped almost immediately. The risk is a big one, but it can pay dividends down the line.

Modern Family was a massive success on the small screen, and its biggest stars made off like bandits with their salaries. This, in turn, boosted each of their net worths significantly.

Let's take a look at the cast of Modern Family and see how they rank in the net worth department.

Salary negotiations behind the scenes on Modern Family were tense, and almost caused the show to end earlier than expected.

Updated April 2024: The majority of the cast of "Modern Family" has all gone on to work on other projects since the show ended. While most of the cast's net worth is from the hit comedy, given the resumes in the years after "Modern Family" ended, these actors will continue to add to their net worth. But as far as a reboot of the show, at least for now, the cast believes it's too soon.

10 Aubrey Anderson-Emmons

Net Worth: $6 Million

  • Character: Lily Tucker-Pritchett

Aubrey Anderson-Emmons had but two projects on her resume when she landed the role of Lily Tucker-Pritchett, the adopted daughter Cameron Tucker and Mitchell Pritchett. As such, her $6 million net worth is thanks to Modern Family.

In the years since Modern Family ended, Anderson-Emmons has not taken on any more roles. This is because Anderson-Emmons thought she was going to retire from acting. But thanks to getting involved in her high school theater, that has since changed.

Additionally, Anderson-Emmons is an aspiring musician who is hoping to have music released soon.

9 Ariel Winter

Net Worth: $12 Million

'Modern Family': The Cast Ranked By Net Worth (4)
  • Character: Luke Dunphy

Nolan Gould played the goofy Luke Dunphy on Modern Family. As a result of the popularity of the show and Gould getting some great screen time, he guest starred in several shows and films, such as Friends with Benefits, The To Do List, and Sofia the First when not filming the ABC comedy. This helped Gould to amass a $12 million net worth.

Since Modern Family, Gould has appeared in a few projects. According to IMDb they include:

7 Sarah Hyland

'Modern Family': The Cast Ranked By Net Worth (5)
  • Character: Haley Dunphy

Much like Ariel Winter, who played her sister on the show, Sarah Hyland is another performer who has much to look forward to in the entertainment industry. Although Hyland dealt with some issues during the filming of the show, she definitely credits Modern Family for allowing her to build a solid net worth.

At this point in her career, Hyland has landed herself $14 million, which is a number that the majority of people will never achieve.

Some projects that Hyland has worked on since Modern Family ended, according to IMDb include:

Pitch Perfect: Bumper in Berlin (TV Series)

2022

Heidi (lead)

My Fake Boyfriend (Movie)

2022

Kelly (supporting)

Hyland also has a project in development, but it is unclear when the release date will be. However, her stint as the host of Love Island USA ended, so fans may be seeing Hyland again on the screen sooner rather than later.

6 Julie Bowen

Net Worth: $18 Million

'Modern Family': The Cast Ranked By Net Worth (6)
  • Character: Claire Dunphy

Julie Bowen is a phenomenal actress who has been in the entertainment industry for years. Modern Family was the exact vehicle that she needed to show mainstream audiences just how great she was while the cameras were rolling.

Bowen was able to pull down a large salary while on Modern Family, and this played a huge part in her achieving a net worth of $18 million.

Some projects that Bowen has worked on since Modern Family ended, according to IMDb include:

Patricia Banks (voice)

Despite Bowen's success and her continuously being booked, she admits she has a "fear" of never working again. As such, Bowen said that she is very frugal, especially after her divorce in 2018. As such, it is unlikely that Bowen's net worth will be tanking anytime soon.

5 Eric Stonestreet

Net Worth: $23 Million

'Modern Family': The Cast Ranked By Net Worth (8)
  • Character: Cameron Tucker

When talking about the primary leads on Modern Family, it is impossible to ignore the fact that Eric Stonestreet was one of the funniest and most memorable performers on the show. He was given great material to work with, but it is what he did with it that truly set him apart from the majority of people on the show.

Stonestreet has been able to amass a $23 million net worth over the course of his career.

4 Jesse Tyler Ferguson

Net Worth: $25 Million

'Modern Family': The Cast Ranked By Net Worth (9)
  • Character: Mitchell Pritchett

Jesse Tyler Ferguson has been involved in the business since the earlier part of the 2000s, and while it did take some time for him to fully hit his stride, he made sure to make the most of his big opportunity as Mitchell Pritchett on Modern Family.

3 Ty Burrell

Net Worth: $26 Million

'Modern Family': The Cast Ranked By Net Worth (10)
  • Character: Phil Dunphy

Ty Burrell might not have been an instant star in Hollywood, but he has been able to land some really unique opportunities on both the big and small screen. Most people forget that he was actually in the MCU before getting the role of Phil Dunphy on Modern Family.

Burrell has been able to score a net worth of $26 million.

The actor has most recently starred in Duncanville, which lasted for three seasons, ending in 2022. Since then, Burrell has not been working on any projects. However, he has been cast to star in a new ABC sitcom, Forgive & Forget due out in the 2024-2025 season.

2 Ed O'Neill

Net Worth: $65 Million

'Modern Family': The Cast Ranked By Net Worth (12)
  • Character: Jay Pritchett

People who have been following the entertainment industry long enough should not be surprised to see the legendary Ed O'Neill near the very top of this list.

O'Neill had already become a legend of the small screen thanks to his time playing Al Bundy on Married with Children, and being able to score Modern Family for a massive career resurgence was simply icing on the cake for the comedic actor.

Since Modern Family ended, O'Neill has waited to find another project he wanted to work on. That project is Clipped in which O'Neill plays Donald Sterling, the former owner of the Los Angeles Clippers. The mini-series airs on Hulu on June 4, 2024.

1 Sofia Vergara

Net Worth: $180 Million

'Modern Family': The Cast Ranked By Net Worth (13)
  • Character: Gloria Delgado-Pritchett

To say that Sofia Vergara became a global superstar during her time on Modern Family would be a huge understatement. At the peak of the show's popularity, Vergara was one of the highest-paid performers on television, and she is largely considered one of the best aspects of the entire show. She has landed a ton of work since breaking out, and her $180 million net worth comfortably places her at the top of this list.

Since Modern Family ended, some projects that Vergara has worked on, according to IMDb include:

This is Me... Now (Movie)

2024

Cancer (supporting)

Griselda (TV Mini-Series)

2024

Griselda Blanco (lead)

Koati (TV Show)

2021

Zaina (voice)

Vergara also has two projects in various stages of production, including Despicable Me 4.

Additionally, Vergara's fashion line just launched at Walmart. As such, it looks like Vergara will be adding to her already massive net worth in 2024 and beyond.
