Nobody saw that coming.

8 seasons into the hit television series 'Modern Family,' actress Sarah Hyland, who plays Haley Dunphy, is making history by having her character come out of the closet--independently of the show.

Earlier this week, Hyland was asked on Twitter to confirm a fan theory about Haley:

And while she earned some serious points with fans...

Hyland did need to clarify...

'Modern Family' made LGBT TV history when it debuted 8 years go, perhaps it will do so once again by allowing Hayley to come out on screen as well.
