BREAKING NEWS: Days of Our Lives and General Hospital star Tyler Christopher has died at the age of 50
Tyler’s good friend and former General Hospital co-star Maurice Bernard broke the news on his Instagram account. He wrote, “It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of Tyler Christopher. Tyler passed away this morning following a cardiac event in his San Diego apartment. Tyler was a truly talented individual that lit up the screen in every scene he performed and relished bringing joy to his loyal fans through his acting. Tyler was a sweet soul and wonderful friend to all of those who knew him. Tyler was an advocate for better mental health and substance use treatment who openly spoke about his struggles with bipolar depression and alcohol. We are beyond devastated by the loss of our dear friend and pray for his children and his father.”
This is a developing story. We will update you as more details come in. Back in September, Tyler opened up about some of his biggest regrets. In his interview with Maurice Benard on his State of Mind YouTube series, Tyler admitted that one of his worst regrets was getting fired from his soap opera gigs. He said at the time, “It crushed me, because I took for granted the one thing I love the most. It was devastating for a myriad of reasons. One, the thing that I love the most was taken away. Two, I threw it away. Nobody took it away from me. I dropped it, okay? Having to walk out those doors under that circumstance, was like, ‘Wow, this is for real, dude. This is for real. My pride and ego were very quick to intervene. ‘Who can I blame for this?’ And when I looked in the mirror, there was only one person to point the finger at.”
So far his family has not made any comments about the matter. We will update you with all of the latest details as they come in.
