Sarah Hyland's 'Modern Family' Character Is Bisexual

Modern Family star Sarah Hyland may have dropped a surprise in the laps of her show's writers. Hyland tweeted in response to a fan who asked if Hayley Dunphy was bisexual by saying that yes, definitely she is. Hyland immediately admitted, however, that she hadn't looped the show's writers into her decision to make the character bisexual. Did she just force the issue? Guess we'll have to wait and see.

Modern Family’s Haley Dunphy may be getting a female love interest soon!

During a Twitter conversation on Wednesday, November 1, Sarah Hyland responded to a fan who asked if Haley was bisexual. “I don’t know what the writers would say? But I confirm,” she responded.

Over the past nine seasons, Haley has not dated a girl, but her romantic life has been a recurring story line. Her first boyfriend was Dylan (played by Reid Ewing), then for multiple seasons, she was in a will-they won’t-they relationship with Andy (played by Adam DeVine).

The writers on the show have not yet commented on Hyland’s tweet, but fans of the show and the actress alike have praised her.

“Yay! Go Sarah! I’m bi and proud,” one follower tweeted. “Thank you so much, you’re a real sweetheart (this literally made my day),” another added.

In real life, Hyland sparked romance rumors when she spent Halloween with Bachelorette alum Wells Adams. The two went as Stranger Things characters Eleven and Dustin. Adams, who was dressed as Eleven, shared a photo of the pair on Instagram, captioning it, “11 hangin’ with a 10.” She also shared a posed Instagram photo, writing, “#StrangerThings have happened.”
