#MichaelOher, whose story inspired 'The Blind Side,' recently revealed that he was never adopted by the Tuohy family and that they tricked him into signing a document to make themselves his conservators. ⁠ ⁠ As of yesterday, Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy have confirmed their plans to end the conservatorship. ⁠ ⁠ In the lawsuit he filed on Monday, Oher mentioned that the Tuohy family seemingly profited from the film “that would not have existed without him.” He also stated that he received no earnings from the movie.⁠ ⁠ The suit states that the Tuohys and their two children received $225,000 in earnings and 2.5% of the film’s “defined net proceeds.” ⁠ ⁠ The Tuohys lawyer Randall Fishman dismissed Oher’s claims that he received no earnings from ‘The Blind Side,’ while lawyer Steve Farese said the couple had maintained their own wealth before the movie existed.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in bio to read more. // 🎥: michaeloher #TheBlindSide #TheTuohys
