Hyland has opened up about her kidney dysplasia and transplant journey
In a December 2018 interview with Self, the actor detailed her journey with kidney dysplasia.
According to the Modern Family star, she received the diagnosis as a child.
Her father donated his kidney to her in April 2012, but it failed, resulting in another transplant she received from her brother in September 2017.
The actor continually takes medication to ensure the second kidney doesn’t fail, which sometimes results in her getting put on bed rest. Since her diagnosis, Hyland has had over 15 health-related surgeries.
Hyland is engaged to ‘The Bachelorette’ star Wells Adams
After dating Greek Charming leading man Matt Prokop and Vampire Academy co-star Dominic Sherwood, she met The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise star Wells Adams.

The two initially planned to tie the knot in August 2020 but had to postpone their wedding several times due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Hyland and Adams hope to marry at some point in 2022.
They recently caused a stir online when she posted a picture of a newborn as many fans wondered if the pair secretly welcomed a child together. However, she has since clarified the baby in question is their nephew.
