Fourteen years after the release of the Oscar-winning film “The Blind Side”, Michael Oher has alleged in a court filing that he had never actually been adopted by Leigh Anne and Sean Tuohy, and was instead placed into a conservatorship. His childhood friend, Lewis, has claimed that the Tuohys profited from his name and likeness and that he was cut out of the profits from the movie. Sandra Bullock and Tim McGraw received widespread acclaim for their portrayal of Leigh Anne and Sean Tuohy, and Oher has stated that the Tuohys showered him with resources and love. The legal proceedings are ongoing, and the story of Michael Oher and the Tuohys will remain an important part of cinematic history.
