Fans Upset Over The General Hospital Tribute To Tyler Christopher
Tyler, who was best known for his role as Nikolas Cassadine on the hit ABC soap and also as Stefan DiMera on Days of Our Lives, died at the age of 50 back on October 31. Reports indicate that the actor died of a cardiac arrest inside his San Diego home. On Monday, the producers of General Hospital shared a heartfelt tribute to the late actor at the very end of the episode. They shared a photo of Tyler during his General Hospital years and a message that said, “In Loving Memory of Tyler Christopher.”
Unfortunately, a lot of General Hospital fans missed out on it because the episode was cut short because of the breaking news segment. This has left many viewers and Tyler Christopher fans quite upset on Twitter.
General Hospital News: Controversy Surrounding Tyler Even After His Death
Unfortunately, soon after the actor had died, it appeared as though a fake GoFundMe account was made in the actor’s name. Tyler’s good friend in San Diego and sponsor took to his Instagram account to assure his fans that he was a responsible adult that took care of all his needs while he was still alive and that no such fundraiser was approved by his estate.
The Instagram post also reads:
The narrative that Tyler left this world without proper planning is completely false and disrespectful. Any attempts to fundraise on his behalf either for funeral expenses or his children would be against his wishes and are not authorized by his estate. Tyler deserved to pass with dignity.
