Aubrey Anderson-emons
Star from “Modern Family” changes its name
From “Modern Family” star Aubrey Anderson-emons becomes musician Frances Anderson. The 18-year-old published her first EP.
A new name, a new way of life: the actress, who once conquered the heart of the audience as Aubrey Anderson-Memons (18), is now called Frances Anderson and is entirely devoted to music. Together with her debut EP “Drown”, the 18-year-old heralds a completely new chapter in her life.
“Frances is actually part of my legal name” ,. “It is my middle name and named after an old family friend of my mother. I thought it would be a little shorter than Aubrey Anderson-Memons. I have a long surname with a binding bar.”
From acting to music
The change of name is more than just a cosmetic nature. Anderson deliberately wanted to mark a symbolic fresh start: “I wanted to change and show people a new side of me. And I wanted to create a room that is only there for the music.” In May she published the first single “Telephones and Traffic” from her EP.
Her acting career started Anderson at the age of four when she was seen in the third season of “Modern Family” as an adopted daughter Lily. For eleven seasons, she embodied the cheeky adoptive daughter of Mitchell Pritchett (Jesse Tyler Ferguson, 49) and Cam Tucker (Eric Stonestreet, 53). For her work in the Emmy-winning sitcom, she received three screen Actors Guild Awards as part of the ensemble.
Break after the end of the series
When the ABC series ended after eleven seasons in 2020, Anderson was just twelve years old. “I had to take a step back from acting,” she revealed. “The show ended when I was twelve years old, so I decided that I would no longer act.” She used this break to discover her true passion for music.
But fans of the talented young woman can be reassured: a return to acting is quite planned. “I definitely plan to act again – 100 percent,” said Anderson. For the time being, however, she focuses entirely on her musical development as Frances Anderson.
