Actor Ty Burrell departs from Hollywood with a sense of contentment and no remorse
Ty Burrell Embraces the Outdoorsy Lifestyle in Utah
Actor Ty Burrell, best known for his role in the hit TV show Modern Family, has chosen to live in Utah instead of Los Angeles after the series ended. In an interview, Burrell described his family's experience living in Utah as "spectacular" and considers it a great place to raise his children[1][2].
Burrell, who is now 57, lives in Salt Lake City with his wife, Holly, and their two teenage daughters, Frances and Greta. Initially, the family found the outdoors challenging when they first moved to the mountains, but over time, they have grown to truly love the outdoor lifestyle that Utah offers[1][2].
Contrary to his upbringing, where his parents were not outdoorsy people, Burrell now continues to enjoy an outdoorsy lifestyle. He expressed his desire to return to performing and enjoys voiceover work, which allows him to maintain his outdoorsy lifestyle[1].
Interestingly, Burrell's love for the outdoors did not come naturally. The podcast series The Good Life, which he stars in, follows his own childhood, revealing that the Incredible Hulk star's outdoorsy lifestyle was initially a pretense[1].
Despite the initial challenges, Burrell has no regrets about moving to Utah after Modern Family. The decision to move reflects a desire for a different lifestyle away from the Hollywood spotlight, prioritizing family and quality of life over the city's busyness and pressures[1].
In The Good Life, Burrell plays a character who is also grappling with changes in life, making the podcast series a personal exploration of his own experiences. Burrell's character, like himself, learns to embrace the outdoors and find joy in a simpler way of life.
