Entertainment Weekly reported that Rodriguez spoke about experiencing his father's passing after the eighth season of Modern Family on a June 2025 episode of his former co-star, Jesse Tyler Ferguson's podcast, Dinner's on Me. Rodriguez explained that his father had helped with his Modern Family contracts before his death. He also said that he considered not coming back to the show when he was presented with his Season 9 contractual agreement.
He said, however, that he believed he would be dishonoring his father if he did not stay on the Modern Family cast. He also said he knew his co-stars would be strong sources of support during that difficult time. In addition, Rodriguez shared that he was overcome with emotion during the first Season 9 table read, surrounded by his castmates.
Rodriguez spoke about his time on Modern Family, which ended in 2020, during an April 2025 interview with ComingSoon. He described the ABC sitcom as "such a blessing."
"That time in my life was so special. And I look back on it fondly," said Rodriguez during the interview.
