MODERN Family child star Aubrey Anderson-Emmons has blossomed since her days playing the precocious toddler Lily Tucker-Pritchett.
Aubrey, now 16, joined the beloved comedy series when she was just 4 as Mitchell Pritchett and Cameron Tucker’s adopted Vietnamese daughter Lily.
The teenager was introduced to the show in season 3 as the child of Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) and Cam (Eric Stonestreet).
Aubrey grew up in front of viewers’ eyes, going from a sweet toddler to a sassy tween until Modern Family’s 11th and final series in 2020.
Since the show’s end, the actress has been experimenting with her hair and makeup.
Her Instagram is now littered with images of the star rocking a stylish pixie cut and makeup.
Last week, Aubrey looked totally different than her child star days as she posed in a white crop top and jeans.
The teen – who is thought to be dating musician Phoenix Reed – wore red lipstick, white eyeshadow, and white mascara.
Her fans flooded the comments with praise, with one writing, “Wow I can’t believe this is Lily!”
“Omg hi Aubrey I’ve seen u on Modern Family a lot you were the funniest girl on television,” another added.
A third posted a video of a scene from Modern Family in which Cam held Lily and told Mitchell, “I’m gonna sparkle like it’s the Fourth of July.”
Aubrey, who has 1.5million followers on Instagram, sings and plays guitar in a band called October with three of her friends.

The TV star – who is the daughter of Korean-born Lucifer actress Amy Anderson – often shares videos of the group performing on social media.
She has remained close with the Modern Family cast since the season finale.
Jesse recently attended Aubrey’s school production of The Burn and shared photos of the sweet reunion on Instagram.
“It’s crazy to think Aubrey was just a few months older than Beckett when I met her! Look at her now!!!” he wrote in November 20203.
“Congrats, Aubrey! You were SO great! Love you! You make a pretend papa proud.”
In January 2022, the pair met up again to watch a performance of Everybody’s Talking About Jamie at the Ahmanson Theatre in Los Angeles.
Jesse shared a photo of the pair on Instagram at the time and captioned it, “Father-daughter date night!”
Aubrey also made sure to attend Sofia Vergara’s cast reunion at her Los Angeles mansion in November 2023.
The whole cast got together, including fellow child star Rico Rodriguez, who played Sofia’s character Gloria Delgado’s son Manny.
Rico, 25, was spotted looking pretty different himself earlier this week, rocking a goatee and long hair.
