Michael Oher Sues Tuohy Family Over Conservatorship
News summary

Michael Oher, the former NFL star whose life inspired the Oscar-winning film 'The Blind Side', has publicly voiced his discontent with the portrayal of his story in the film and the subsequent legal battle with the Tuohy family. In a recent interview, Oher discussed how he felt deceived by Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy, claiming they tricked him into a conservatorship instead of adopting him, which allowed them to control his finances while profiting millions from his story. Oher criticized the film for presenting him as unintelligent and helpless, leading to misunderstandings about his abilities within the NFL. Despite the Tuohys denying his allegations and asserting that Oher received significant financial benefits, he maintains that the film's narrative misrepresented his identity and experiences. While a judge dissolved the conservatorship, Oher's lawsuit against the Tuohys remains ongoing, as he seeks to reclaim his story and correct the public perception of his life. Oher expressed deep emotional turmoil over the situation, stating that the film felt like 'a comedy about someone else'.
