Just days after ABC's Modern Family wrapped production on its 11 season run comes some bad news.
Beatrice, the French bulldog who played Jay Pritchett's beloved dog Stella, has died.
“Rest in peace, sweet Beatrice,” tweeted Jesse Tyler Ferguson, who plays Jay’s son Mitchell on the series.
“We love you so much," he concluded his message alongside a photo of himself with husband Justin Mikita and Beatrice on the set of Modern Family.
Stella first showed up on Modern Family Season 2, but was played by a French bulldog named Brigitte.
Rest In Peace sweet Beatrice. We love you so much...

Beatrice, who played the beloved French bulldog Stella on the last seven seasons of “Modern Family,” died earlier this month shortly after the cast shot the series finale, according to TheBlast.
A rep for the Good Dog Animals agency, which represented Beatrice, said the 9-year-old Frenchie was rushed to a veterinary emergency room on March 9 with “fluid around her heart which was compressing down.” She went into cardiac arrest during surgery and was unable to be revived.
Stella was introduced in the second season of the hit ABC sitcom and initially played by a French bulldog named Brigitte; Beatrice took over the role in the fourth season as the increasingly doted-on pet of Ed O’Neill’s family patriarch, Jay Pritchett.
