Played by Jesse Tyler Ferguson
Like his character on Modern Family, Jesse Tyler Ferguson is a member of the LGBT community and a life-long advocate for equal rights. During the pre-Modern Family days, Jesse wasn’t that well-known. He appeared on The Class and ugly Betty, but when he was cast to play Mitchell Pritchett on Modern Family, the offers came pouring in.
He made his debut in voice acting while playing Shangri Llama in Ice Age: Collision Course and is currently the host of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. After two years of dating, Jesse announced his engagement to Justin Mikita, and they wed the following year.
