“General Hospital” star Adam Huss reacted to Christopher’s death on X, writing, “This is so tragic and heartbreakingly sad. My heart goes out to his entire family and friends who loved him. Brilliant actor who inspired me (and continues to) in many, many ways.” Executive producer Frank Valentini also took the time to tweet, “I am heartbroken over the news of Tyler Christopher’s passing. He was kind, an incredible actor and a dear friend, who was beloved by our #GH family and fans of Nikolas Cassadine.” He followed that up by speaking for everyone who works on the show, stating, “Our heartfelt sympathies go out to his loved ones during this difficult time.”
Rebecca Budig, who played Hayden Barnes, posted a selfie of her and Christopher on Instagram with the caption, “Gut punched. Sweet Tyler. I only worked with him briefly but his kindness left [its] mark.” Hayden had a brief romance with Nikolas. Budig continued, “We had many talks about his kids whom he loved so dearly. Praying for them and his family. May he rest in peace.”
Sean Kanan (ex-A.J. Quartermaine) was “stunned,” simply stating on X, “I have no words. RIP my friend.” Still reeling from the death of soap star Billy Miller, Kathleen Gati (Liesl Obrecht) tweeted, “I am once again devastated by yet another loss of a wonderful colleague and beautiful human being. Deepest condolences to the family, friends and fans of #TylerChristopher.” Our hearts go out to his loved ones at this devastating time as well.
