Genie Francis Remembers Late General Hospital Son Tyler Christopher: ‘So Vulnerable, So Pure’

Fans of General Hospital are in for a rare treat when Maurice Benard (Sonny) sits down with fellow Port Charles legend Genie Francis (Laura) for a candid conversation in a two-part installment of State of Mind, Benard’s mental health-focused YouTube series. In a clip of the first episode featuring Francis, which was shared exclusively on SoapHub, Benard and Francis shared memories of several of their dearly departed castmates, including the late Tyler Christopher, the Daytime Emmy-winner who originated the role of Laura’s firstborn son, Nikolas Cassadine.

Gone But Not Forgotten

Christopher passed away on October 31, 2023 at the age of 50 from what the San Diego Medical Examiner’s office determined was “positional asphyxia due to acute alcohol intoxication.” It was Benard who broke the tragic news, sharing on Instagram, “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.” Christopher was survived by his two children, son Greyson, who was born in 2009, and daughter Boheme, who was born in 2015….
