\"Best night at the theater ever!\" Bowen wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of her and Ferguson. \"@Jessetyler is PHENOMENAL in Take Me Out. The whole cast was perfection. I'm so proud to call you my fake brother, Jesse! I love you!!\"

Bowen's character in \"Modern Family\" was the sister of Ferguson's character, Mitchell Pritchett. The sitcom ran for 11 seasons.

Last year, Bowen, Ferguson and several other \"Modern Family\" stars came out to support Sarah Hyland, who tied the knot with husband Wells Adams in a ceremony near Santa Ynez, California.
