Former Nickelodeon child star Tylor Chase, who was recently revealed to be homeless after a video of him living on the streets went viral, has been checked into a hotel room thanks to the help of Daniel Curtis Lee, his one-time costar on Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide. Chase, 36, portrayed Martin Qwerly on 33 episodes of the show from 20042007, while Lee, 34, played the role of Simon “Cookie” Nelson-Cook on 54 episodes. In a video shared online, the former child stars were seen sharing an emotional reunion with a hug, as Lee provided Chase with a warm, clean place to stay during Christmas week.
Lee in an Instagram reel Monday detailed the efforts he put into reconnecting with his one-time costar and providing him with a room. Lee said that he got Chase on the phone with his father during the meeting, which lifted Chase’s spirits. “Love is all we can we can really give people some time, and I’m happy that he was able to have that connection with his pops,” Lee said. Lee said that he spoke with Chase’s mother, who told him that giving him cash “might be dangerous” and that he wanted to “respect her wishes” as such. Lee said that if anyone on social media was familiar with the process of establishing a trust “that’s contingent upon someone completing like a rehab or some type of process” it could be the next step to help Chase turn his life around. “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,” the actor said. “He’s on my heart often, on my mind often.”
The update came a day after authorities in Riverside, California said it’s not immediately clear how long Chase has been living on the streets. “We do not know how long he has been experiencing homelessness,” Riverside Police Department Public Information Officer Ryan Railsback told Daily Mail Monday, Dec. 22. Railsback added of Chase, “During all of our interactions, he has been cordial and cooperative with our officers.” Railsback said that officers with the department’s Public Safety Engagement Team “contact him at least once a week and consistently offer a variety of resources, including assistance with temporary shelter options.” As news of Chase’s living situation spread, another one-time child star who has battled homelessness Shaun Weiss of The Mighty Ducks films offered help. Weiss credited his friend, businessman Jake Harris, for taking action to assist Chase. “Well, we were working on it and really Jake’s the one doing all the hard work,” Shaun told Daily Mail. Said Weiss: “I just made a video and Jake’s been out there literally combing the streets last night for him – and he finally found him and made contact with him.” Weiss continued, “We tried to get him into a hotel last night and it didn’t work because really what happened was Jake had established a conversation with him and was working on establishing a rapport. Weiss said the process was “difficult” and “it can be tricky considering the state that Tyler’s in”. The Mighty Ducks alum said “Tyler seemed to be very receptive to getting treatment and to the idea of going into a detox.” In an Instagram post, Harris said that he put Chase on the phone with multiple costars who “explained their love for him” and how they hoped he would seek treatment. “He’s now in contact with all the right people to get him to help he needs,” Harris said. “He has a hotel room tonight to give him time to make the decision on his own.” Lee replied in the comment thread, “Thanks for getting the ball rolling for his treatment Jake.” Watch video below.
