> [@River\_Hippie](#): > > There is a commercial right now that features a young gal about Haley’s age that started a blog or YT channel about makeup and it took off. We actually had that commercial about 2 minutes before Haley’s reveal. And then later the commercial break after Mitchell bashed Kate Winslet’s accent in Titanic, there was a commercial about Kate’s new movie. So the product placement was either spectacular or else incredibly coincidental. ---

> [@River\_Hippie](#): > > According to this[Wikipedia page on Modern Family](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Modern_Family_characters), Haley was 15 in season one so can’t be 21 yet by my calculations. Last nights show sure seemed to treat her as being old enough to drink so maybe it’s a continuity error. I was surprised last week when Gloria said she was three/two? in 1973/1974, which would make her at the youngest 41. If Manny is 13 or so, she would have been in her late 20s having him and I thought the mythology was she married Benjamin Bratt and had Manny when she was younger. I guess she has to just be younger than Clare but not by much? [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/modern-family-january-22-2014-three-dinners/679526.md?page=1)
