Modern Family's Jesse Tyler Ferguson has shared a sweet reunion photo of him with on-screen daughter Aubrey Anderson-Emmons.
The sitcom stars, who played Mitchell Pritchett (Ferguson) and adopted daughter Lily Pritchett (Anderson-Emmons) in the series from 2009-2020, spent an evening at the theatre together in Los Angeles.
The two watched a dance production of Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet by acclaimed British choreographer Matthew Bourne. Ferguson clearly enjoyed the performance, raving about the show in the photo's caption.

It's not the first time the two co-stars have caught up, with Ferguson showing his support for Anderson-Emmons in a new role in November last year.
“Got to see my talented pretend daughter @aubreyandersonemmons in her high school production of THE BURN,” wrote Ferguson on Instagram at the time, alongside an accompanying photo of the pair. In the caption he added: "You make a pretend papa proud."
Last month, it was announced that Ferguson has landed a new TV role in the upcoming The Good Wife spin-off series Elsbeth.

The Modern Family star will portray TV producer Skip Mason on the show, who is part of a sinister storyline.
"The brilliant creator and producer of Lavish Ladies, a popular reality TV show featuring wealthy women and too much white wine. In his mad pursuit of 'good TV', Skip makes some bad decisions that lead to resentment, blackmail, and murder," reads his character description via TVLine.
The show will air in the US in February, with Ferguson appearing alongside actress Carrie Preston, who is reprising her role of Elsbeth Tascioni from both The Good Wife and its original spin-off series The Good Fight.
