Michael Oher is demanding that Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy release 19 years of financial documents.
“Blind Side” inspiration and retired NFL player Michael Oher — who made bombshell accusations last week against Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy, claiming they witheld his portion of the profits from the movie — is now alleging that he also never saw a cent from the use of his name, image or likeness over the last two decades.
The scathing documents are the latest in the offensive lineman’s bombshell lawsuit last week seeking to end the conservatorship he says the Tuohys misled him to agreeing to under the guise of an adoption when he was a teenaged gridiron star. At a news conference last week, family attorneys Randall Fishman and Steven Farese countered that all four Tuohys and Oher each got around $100,000, the Times said.
“In reality, the Tuohys opened their home to Mr. Oher, offered him structure, support and, most of all, unconditional love,” Singer told the outlet.
