Steve Burton Accused Of Harassment. When reel life imitates real life… Sometimes the drama becomes more intense in the non-fiction version than in the drama series itself. Michael and Willow’s custody battle kind of mimics Steve’s own custody battle with ex-wife, Sheree. General Hospital news reports reveal that real life custody drama plagues Steve and Sheree over their 10 year old daughter, Brooklyn.
General Hospital fans haven’t forgotten about the startling news that Steve announced in 2022. Burton’s ex-wife Sheree has shared news that she was pregnant via social media, and moments after Steve Burton used his social platforms to clear the air on any confusion caused by Sheree’s post. In fact, General Hospital Blog was the first to share the news- and the first to share Steve’s explanation.
It’s been three years since Steve and Sheree separated and then divorced. Since then both parties are remarried. Although they have moved on from one another, custody issues keep them battling in a courtroom. According to recent General Hospital news, Sheree has allegedly accused Steve of harassment. The nature of the complaint stems from Steve’s requests to see their daughter, Brooklyn (age 10). The ex couple shares three children, Makena (21), Jack (19), and Brooklyn is the youngest- and the only minor child remaining. That said, reports say that Sheree has filed a complaint against Steve for harassment, while Steve has accused Sheree of alienation. Sources say that In Touch has obtained a copy of text messages between parties, displaying Sheree’s complaint against Steve.
Steve Burton Accused Of Harassment
“In the past few months, [Steve] has started to message me and accuse me of parental alienation if he cannot get ahold of Brooklyn,” the former Mrs. Burton alleged, in the documents, and claims, “His messages are almost daily and are harassing.” According to recent GH news reports, Steve has denied these allegations.
On Tuesday, May 27th, Burton’s lawyer, Sarah C. Clark made a statement to US Weekly. Clark shared Steve’s stance on the accusations, stating, “Steve maintains that Sheree’s allegations are categorically false. He has, and will continue to, act in the best interests of the parties’ daughter, Brooklyn, which includes ensuring there is frequent and continuing contact with both parents.”
Prior to these statements, Steve’s makes claims about Sheree’s feelings about his new relationship with Michelle Lundstrom. According to Us Weekly, He was able to provide text conversations that are allegedly between himself and his ex, where he claims, “Early on in my relationship with Michelle, Sheree began to refuse to call Michelle by her name and instead referred to her as ‘the girl’ in an effort to downplay her role in my life.” Apparently, this was found in a May 5th court filing obtained by the news outlet. In addition text conversation screenshots show disagreements regarding Michelle , especially pertaining to custodial time with their youngest, Brooklyn.
Steve and Sheree’s Court Filings And Text Messages
Although other sources have shared more details regarding the personal texts between Steve and Sheree, I will not. It’s true what they say; that you don’t truly know how it feels until you go through it. I have learned first hand, and firmly believe in that statement. Currently, I’m going through a very similar situation regarding my ex-husband and custody. I know what false allegations feel like- from drug abuse to alienation and everything in between. The manipulation and rewritten narrative is strong- and it’s painful.
I know first hand how one party can manipulate the situation so severely that an entire courtroom, family, and so-called friends can buy into it. I guess it’s easy when you send screenshots of texts from your ex only, but cropped what was said prior that led to that response. The court doesn’t have a 15 year history of the relationship, nor do they know either party on a personal level. Sadly, Steve and Sheree are not in a good place with each other despite both having moved on. I know exactly what this feels like and there’s no need to feed into the “he said, she said,” drama.
My heart goes out to both parties. Truthfully, it’s not my place to judge, and I have no clue what went on behind the closed doors of their relationship. Their co-parenting journey is likely to reflect the dynamic of their entire relationship- and I feel for them for that.
