‘Modern Family’ star Eric Stonestreet has officially tied the knot with Lindsay Schweitzer, the actor revealed through social media. The couple exchanged vows at their Kansas City dream home, according to Stonestreet’s Instagram announcement posted on Tuesday, September 9.
The Intimate Home Wedding
Stonestreet, best known for his role as Cameron Tucker in the hit sitcom ‘Modern Family,’ chose to celebrate his marriage in a personal setting rather than opting for a lavish celebrity venue. The decision to host the ceremony at their Kansas City residence suggests the couple’s connection to their roots and desire for a more intimate celebration.
The actor shared the news with fans through his Instagram platform, though specific details about the ceremony itself, including the guest list and wedding theme, were not immediately available.
The Couple’s Relationship
Stonestreet and Schweitzer’s relationship has been relatively private compared to other Hollywood romances. The pair had been engaged for some time before taking this next step in their relationship.
Schweitzer, who works as a pediatric nurse, has maintained a lower public profile than her actor husband. Their relationship has been characterized by their shared Midwestern connections, with Kansas City serving as an important location for the couple.
Friends and fans of the actor responded positively to the announcement, with many offering congratulations to the newlyweds on social media.
Stonestreet’s Career and Personal Life
The wedding marks a significant personal milestone for Stonestreet, who rose to fame through his portrayal of the flamboyant and big-hearted Cameron Tucker on ABC’s ‘Modern Family.’ His performance earned him two Emmy Awards for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series during the show’s run from 2009 to 2020.
Despite his Hollywood success, Stonestreet has maintained strong ties to his Kansas City origins. The actor has been vocal about his love for his hometown in previous interviews and public appearances, often supporting local sports teams and causes.
The decision to marry in Kansas City rather than in Los Angeles, where much of his professional life is centered, reflects Stonestreet’s continued connection to his hometown.
Since the conclusion of ‘Modern Family’ in 2020, Stonestreet has taken on various projects, including hosting duties on game shows and appearing in other television productions. This wedding represents a new chapter in both his personal life and post-‘Modern Family’ journey.
The couple has not yet shared information about honeymoon plans or other details regarding their future together as newlyweds.
