‘General Hospital’ Star Mired in Off-Screen Guardianship Drama

The daytime soap star, Tyler Christopher, is no stranger to personal struggles playing out publicly. The actor lost jobs at General Hospital and Days of Our Lives due to his alcohol use and was arrested for public intoxication earlier this year.

In 2019, he underwent life-saving craniotomy surgery after fracturing his skull due to a fall while experiencing alcohol withdrawal. At the time, his sister filed a petition to put him under a guardianship. 

“I never thought in a million years that I would be taken advantage of by a family member,” Christopher, 50, said in an interview.

Family members have defended their stewardship and described his public statements as unproven.
