Modern Family star Eric Stonestreet has split from his actress girlfriend Katherine Tokarz after three years.

The actor, who plays gay father Cameron Tucker on the hit comedy, has parted from the Broadway star, who he met at a Rock of Ages performance in 2009.

A representative for Stonestreet has confirmed the break-up to In Touch magazine.

An insider tells the publication, "They broke up a couple of months ago. Eric is happy and looking to date."
