GH and DAYS Alum, Tyler Christopher On Family Legal Drama: “Being Homeless Was a Far Better Circumstance Than Being in the Guardianship”
Daytime Emmy-winning actor, Tyler Christopher (ex-Nikolas Cassadine, GH, ex-Stefan DiMera, DAYS), was the subject of a profile on Bloomberg Law.
The profile had to do with illustrating issues that arise with legal guardianship cases. In Tyler’s case, his sister, Susan Asmo Baker became Christopher’s legal guardian after he had fractured his skull in 2019 while withdrawing from alcohol poisoning.
While recovering from brain surgery, Tyler’s sister filed a petition in 2020 to put him under guardianship. She was granted it, but Christopher is alleging in court documents that his sister misspent or improperly received reimbursement for $40,000 to pay down her own credit card debt, bankrolled her own move, and even bought her son a MacBook.
In response, Asmo Baker says her brother’s complaints are unproven “allegations.” She wrote to Bloomberg that, “If I hadn’t been his Guardian he’d be DEAD!”
When the guardianship ended in 2021, she allegedly reached out to the actor writing, “I would have never done you wrong, not before your injury, during or after and for some reason you think I need your money … I DO NOT TYLER! Sad that you don’t even trust me. That’s what hurts the most.”
Back in April of this year in an attempt to settle things, Baker agreed to pay for a forensic accountant to examine her spending under the guardianship. If the review supports her brother’s accusations, Baker has to pay it back.
As his guardianship evolved, Tyler shared, he was “completely in the dark about everything. I was recovering from a brain injury so the choice for guardianship was made for me without my knowledge.”
In legal documents, Christopher said he believes his sister’s original intent and motivation was partly genuine. Once Tyler and his lawyer began digging into the finances, he said his relationship with his sister became “fractured.”
After the guardianship ended in 2022, Tyler went back to Hollywood from Indiana, to try to find work as an actor where he was homeless for the first six months. Back in May of this year, Tyler was arrested for public intoxication. Even with all of that, Christopher related that those troubles were not as bad as how he felt under his sister’s guardianship, adding, “Being homeless was a far better circumstance than being in the guardianship.”

So, what do you think about what Tyler went through following his brain surgery and being in a guardianship overseen by his sister? Comment below.
Is this the impetus for the Gladys-Sasha storyline?
I was thinking the Sasha guardian story might have been “loosely inspired” by Britney Spears who just recently got out of a guardianship situation after several years, due to her mental health issues.
Tyler talked about his story on Maurice Bernard’s show State of Mind. It could be that his sister helped him with good intentions, saved his life and true he might not be here without that help. Then, person with access to free money (sister) could’t help but spend some… Hope Tyler can overcome, he is a terrific actor!! They don’t just give Daytime Emmys away! Also hope he can forgive his sister if she did misspend some of his money.
If she spent $40k, oh well! He would have paid more than that at a drunk tank for that long. Putting up with a drunk trying to get alcohol and those moods is not easy. Plus, he was recovering from brain surgery? She was a nurse maid and a dang therapist. If she needed some money, let her have some. But next time, she needs to ask. However, he was probably being a horse’s behind.
It looks like she was in NC and he was in Indiana. I don’t know that she was a nurse maid and therapist. Regardless of his condition, she shouldn’t take his money. If she needed something for living expenses, that might be understandable, but she should have receipts.
My understanding he was recovering from Brain surgery.
TC is an alcoholic ok he loves the booze it is the most important thing to him more important then his family his job everything. Being homeless would be more exciting because one can lay in filth and drink himself to death and that’s exactly what is going to happen to this man. He wants to whine about everything but I’ve yet to hear one word out of his mouth he wants to get sober and stay sober.
It’s advisable not to make generalizations about a disease you likely know little about.
One does not have to discuss their recovery plan in public. Yes, the tough struggles along the way often do hit the media.
What matters is his personal recovery – not whether he shares the details with the world.
Thank you, Steve. I have loved ones in recovery, and I’ve learned the most hurtful thing you can do to them is shame them
or not believe them when they’re telling the truth. The AMA has recognized alcoholism as a real disease. Moreover, Tyler is struggling with a dual diagnosis due to also being bipolar. He’s doing the best he can, and speaking his truth. We just need to listen without judgement.
I would not have come on so strong if I had not known what I was talking about! My father had trouble with the booze he took his problems out on my mom. I hope Tyler gets the help he needs and decides the booze is not that important
My heart breaks for Tyler. I pray that he will stay in a serious alcohol rehab program and maintain his sobriety.
Tyler sadly relapsed lately per his own words. Hope he gets the help he still needs. He couldve drunk himself to death. His sister may have saved his life and we have not heard her side. She agreed to forensic accounting per article.
Brain surgery is no simple recovery and his chemistry could have been messed up from the surgery.
If his was to return to GH… I would hope his many supportive cast members would always help him build his confidence and self esteem.
Nobody was shaming him certainly not me just disgusted he had a wonderful family he threw it away
Don’t make remarks I know nothing about! Hope he beats this ! But his family did not mean enough to him to get sober! Now if you have a problem with that I’m sorry his family should come first
Would love to hear he gets it together he gets his family back and he is sober ! Will pray that happens! He can do it but first he has to admit he is an alcoholic ! Can he do that

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Who Winds Up Hitting the Sheets First? Jordan and Michael or Curtis and Monet?

After today’s Friday, October 9 episode of General Hospital, Monet Mitchell (Blythe Howard) informs Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner), that not only is she Jordan’s (Tanisha Harper) half-sister, but the best damn lawyer there is to get him out of spending the rest of his prison sentence in Pentonville. Does he believe her?
If Monet can come through, would Curtis look at her in a whole new light, especially since his girlfriend, Jordan has headed to Europe with Michael (Rory Gibson) to visit the burn clinic to restore her face and remove the scars that have plagued her since the car accident with him?
It appears GH is ready to shake-up the couples and the romance on the long-running ABC soap opera. We already know Tanisha Harper previewed that the series is trying out the chemistry between Harper and her GH co-star Rory Gibson, and that Michael and Jordan might explore their burgeoning feelings for one another since both currently work together at Aurora Media, and understand what the other went through following horrific sets of circumstances that left them scarred.

As for Monet, she would like nothing more than to stick to her sister as their is still a deep troubled history between the two yet to be fully revealed. It would seem Monet would love to flaunt a relationship with Curtis. And knowing Curtis, he will be so eternally grateful to Monet for helping him gain his freedom that this might be a possible scenario. But the question becomes, who cheats on who first?
Do you think Jordan and Michael hook-up while away from Port Charles? Does Monet take advantage of Curtis, if and when, he becomes a free man? Does Curtis already sense Jordan pulling away from him but is keeping that inside, or will this all come as shocker if he were to learn Michael and Jordan have become closer?

Photo: ABC
While much of this is speculation, it does seem like the trajectory of the storyline; given that Michael’s recent love interest Jacinda (Paige Herschell) was written-out of the story, and it appears that Serena Baldwin (Kelly Kruger) is now being put in the romantic path of Jason Morgan (Steve Burton).
GH spoilers for the week of October 12-16 indicate that on Wednesday, October 14, Michael reflects on his past, while on Thursday, October 16 Monet advises Curtis.
So, do you think that Jordan hits the sheets with Michael, and Monet and Curtis will hook up? Or, do you think it will all be a giant tease? If it becomes true, who would you be rooting for to end up together? Any of them? Let us know in the comment section below.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Chase Turns a Blind Eye to the Scathing Headline About His Ex-Wife and Runs to Her Defense

By the end of the Thursday, October 8 episode of General Hospital, we were left scratching our heads at how utterly indefensible Chase’s (Josh Swickard) complete and utter blind eye to his ex-wife, Willow’s (Katelyn MacMullen) actions and his knight in shining armor antics are so misguided.
Let’s break this down! After Lulu’s (Alexa Havins) piece in The Invader has the whole town of Port Charles talking, Carly (Laura Wright) laughs in Drew’s (Cameron Mathison) face about how he was trapped in a wheelchair with a paralytic drug for months, while Tracy (Jane Elliot) filled Michael (Rory Gibson) and Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) in on the article, which to this point they have not seen.
Said article, comes on the heels of Lulu’s little chat with Sidwell (Carlo Rota) in his hospital room. The headline reads: “Motion Denied: Congresswoman Gives Husband Paralytic Drug For Months!”
Michael and Brook Lynn worried that Willow will lash out do something vengeful and blame the Quartermaines for this. They hope that Chase will finally see the light to who Willow truly is.

WILLOW CAN DO NO WRONG?
Meanwhile, Chase is meeting with his lawyer Monet Mitchell (Blythe Howard) to discuss his separation from Brook Lynn, when he suddenly gets a text from Tracy. He opens it up and tells Monet he has to bolt. Something has come up. So, Chase being Chase, shows up in the Quartermaine kitchen and blames Brook Lynn, Michael and Tracy for a hit piece on his ex-wife.
The three deny involvement. But Chase being Chase, doesn’t believe a word they are saying. He then makes a VOW to stop them from trying to destroy Willow’s reputation any further! After he storms out, Brook Lynn is angered and devastated that no matter what, Chase is standing by his ex, and not trying to save his marriage to her.
FRIENDLY SUPPORT INTERUPPTED
Meanwhile at the gatehouse, Willow is opening up to Britt (Kelly Thiebaud), who came by to see her to offer her support. Willow admitted the story is true and that Sidwell gave her the paralytic drugs to use on Drew, in return for having her implanted in congress to do his bidding and to take Drew’s seat. Willow’s concerned that the mere existence of this article will cause massive problems with her political career and the custody arrangement over her children she has with Michael.
As Britt tries to help Willow figure a way to save herself, Chase arrives fuming mad. He tells Willow he is absolutely sure that Brook Lynn, Michael and Tracy were behind the article and he knows exactly how they could fight back.
So, does it seem to you that even if Willow admits to Chase to what she did to Drew is true, that Chase will just feel bad for her and not see anything but desire for her? Is Chase going to continue to be the dumbest male character in daytime? Weigh-in via the comment section, but first, check out the scenes between Britt and Willow below from today’s GH.

‘General Hospital’s’ Hudson West Wins Big as Contestant on ‘The Price is Right’

You just never know when one of your favorites from a soap opera will pop on TV on another show! Such was the case on the Tuesday, October 6 episode of the number one daytime game show in America, The Price is Right on CBS!
Hudson West, who has played Jake Webber on General Hospital from 2016-2019, and then has been recurring since 2021 and used very sporadically in story, was in attendance in the audience for a taping of The Price is Right. He wound up selected as one of the players and eventually won a car.
Here;’s what happened: West bid $3,000 on a five-night stay at the Bandon Marina Inn in Oregon. His opponent, Charles, bid $4,550, which was too high, so West got the chance to play the game “Any Number” for a prize.

The drama became intense as West picked the numbers needed to win a new car with host Drew Carey presiding over the game play. After he won, Hudson fell to the floor in shock before getting up and running in excitement towards his new car!
Later in the show, Hudson got the opportunity to spin the wheel to try to advance to the “Showcase” round, but his opponent named Jenny spun a higher number to qualify, ending West’s run in the game. But, he came away with the new car.
Apart from his role on GH, TV fans have seen West on NCIS: Los Angeles, Dancing with the Stars: Juniors and Grace and Frankie to name but a few.
You can check out what happened when Hudson won a car on The Price is Right on the video below.
Now let us know, what did you think of Hudson’s big win? Do you hope that GH finally has Jake back in story since he is the son of Elizabeth and Jason? Weigh-in via the comment section below.
