The 53-year-old actress posted a throwback photo of the two, in which she wore a sparkly emerald green gown and threw her arms around O'Neill, who turned 80 on Sunday.
Fans expressed shock at the veteran actor's age as they took to social media to praise the former Married...with Children star.
Vergara captioned her post, 'Feliz cumpleaños to my favorite husband!❤️ I miss u Ed O’Neill!!!!'
The note seemed to be a subtle slight at ex-husband Joe Manganiello, from whom she split in 2024 after nine years of marriage.
She was also previously married to Joe Gonzalez, with whom she shares son Manolo, 34, from 1991-1993.

One O'Neill fan wrote on a Reddit thread, 'HE IS NOT EIGHTY – omg he is.'
O'Neill, who is famous for playing sitcom dads in Modern Family and Married… With Children, also has two daughters in real life; Pictured with daughter Claire in June 2024
In addition to Claire, Ed also shares daughter Sophia with actress wife Catherine Rusoff; Seen with his wife and daughters in 2016
His daughter set the record straight about her racial identity in a comment which read: 'Okay, let me clear things up for everyone: I'm 18 not 28. I am a surrogate baby (I'm not biologically related to my mom).'
'I am 25 percent Black because the egg donor is 50 percent. My dad's only been married once.'
Ed's family is rarely seen by the public and Claire currently has a low-key social media presence on Instagram and TikTok.
