Ty Burrell has zero regrets about ditching L.A. for the slopes and serenity of Salt Lake City. “It’s just been spectacular,” the Modern Family alum, 57, told People of the mountain life he now shares with his wife Holly and their two teenage daughters, Frances and Greta. “We moved here right after [Modern Family] ended, and I don’t have any regrets. It’s been lovely and a great place to raise the kids.“ While he’s currently voicing a role in the scripted podcast The Good Life—which is loosely based on his own childhood—Burrell admits he’s “itching” to return to live performing. But for now, voice work fits nicely into his outdoors-heavy schedule. That’s a far cry from where he started. “My parents weren’t really those kinds of people,” he said. “So at first, when we moved here, it almost felt like cosplay, like we were pretending to be people who were outdoorsy, and now we really truly love it.”
