A former colleague of Nickelodeon actor Tylor Chase has shared an update about him following a viral video incident earlier this week.
Recently, a video surfaced online causing concern as it showed Tylor Chase, a former Nickelodeon star, appearing unkempt and possibly homeless. In the clip, a passerby asked Chase if he was once an actor, to which he affirmed, mentioning his role on the well-known Nickelodeon series, *Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide*.
Many viewers were upset by the way the video was recorded, but the primary sentiment was a hope that Chase would receive assistance and support. The video gained rapid attention on social media, prompting some of Chase’s past co-stars to respond.
Devon Werkheiser, who starred as Ned on the show, publicly expressed his distress over the situation.
He commented: “Tylor was a sensitive, sweet, and kind kid. It is heartbreaking to see him this way.”
Werkheiser mentioned that he hadn’t seen Chase in about two decades since the show’s conclusion. He further noted that simply providing monetary help might not address the underlying issues, which could involve mental health complexities.
In another development, Daniel Curtis Lee, who portrayed Simon “Cookie” Nelson-Cook, shared a video documenting his reunion with Chase in Los Angeles.
Through a video posted on Instagram, Curtis Lee recounted meeting Chase and going out for pizza.
While they dined, they also contacted Werkheiser through Facetime, allowing Chase to speak with him.
Lee then arranged for Chase to stay at a nearby hotel in Los Angeles.
Prior to their meeting, Lee had expressed via social media his desire to support his former co-star.
He also facilitated Chase in reconnecting with his father.
In an Instagram Reel, Lee stated: “Love is all we can really give people sometimes, and I’m happy that he was able to have that connection with his pops. I really believe we can get Tylor back on his feet and you know I’m super feeling it right now with the holiday season. He’s on my heart often, on my mind often.”
