Michael Oher, the ex-NFL player who inspired the 2009 blockbuster hit "The Blind Side," alleged in court documents that the Tuohy family never adopted him and instead placed him in a conservatorship to enrich themselves.
The Tuohys took in Oher while he was in high school but was a ward of Tennessee's foster care system as a minor.
The documents, obtained by Insider, claimed that Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy tricked Oher into signing documents that entered him into a conservatorship three months after his 18th birthday in 2004.
Documents said the conservatorship allowed the Tuohy family to have "total control" over Oher's ability to "negotiate for or enter any contract," including a deal that paid them and their two children — Collins and Sean Tuohy Jr. — millions of dollars in royalties from "The Blind Side" while Oher got nothing.
Oher also claimed the Tuohy family saw him as a "gullible" young man who could be "exploited for their own benefit." He's seeking to terminate the conservatorship in the documents.
Members of the Tuohy family have spoken out since Oher's filing.
Sean Tuohy said he'd be open to ending the conservatorship in an interview with The Daily Memphis published Monday. He told the outlet that The Tuohys didn't make money from the film, claiming instead that Michael Lewis, who wrote 2006 the book that inspired "The Blind Side," gave them half of his share, and the family split it evenly.
Sean Tuohy Jr. told Barstool Sports he did not make millions from "The Blind Side." The Tuohys later accused Oher of threatening them with "negative" press in a $15 million "shakedown."
Here's where Oher and the Tuohys are now.
