TAMARA BRAUN ONLINE is stunned to hear of the death of Tamara’s GENERAL HOSPITAL co-star, Tyler Christopher. As with Rest in Peace Billy Miller, we send our condolences to Tyler’s family, co-workers, and fans. Tyler played the part of Nikolas Cassadine on GHDAYS OF OUR LIVES. Tyler was on during Tamara’s time as Carly Corinthos. I believe they had a few scenes together. This is just too tragic for the GENERAL HOSPITAL community coming on the heels of both Billy Miller’s death, and the death of Jacklyn Zeman earlier this year.

Billy Miller has passed. This was such a shock to see this on Twitter/X this morning. I grew to admire Billy’s acting when he was a recast for the character of Billy Abbott on The Young and the Restless. His charisma and engaging personality made me an immediate fan and his chemistry with Amelia Henlie (Victoria Newman) was amazing. For the role Billy won himself two Daytime Emmy Awards, and a further nomination for the role. Later he would come to GENERAL HOSPITAL as initially a recast Jason Morgan, however, when Steve Burton made his comeback in 2017, Billy was created the role Drew Cain. When Tamara came back to the show as the newly minted Dr. Kim Nero, she was paired with Billy’s character, Drew having fathered her son, Oscar (Garren Stitt). From there as Oscar battled a fatal brain tumor, Billy and Tamara portrayed grieving parents dealing with the lingering death, and finally death of their beloved son. The scene where Drew carried Oscar down the stairs at the Quartermain mansion was just gutting. Billy decided to leave the show and it was paler for it, as he garnered anther Daytime Emmy nomination for the role. Tamara would win as Best Supporting Actress. But for Billy, it’s so sad to think he was suffering. It is truly gut wrenching to think of his light fading. At 43, he had so much more to give us. He just didn’t feel he could. Be at rest now Billy. On behalf of TAMARA BRAUN ONLINE, we send his family, friends, and co-workers our condolences and wish them peace.
I know this is all I seem to post these days, however, here are some new scans for the gallery. Both focus in on Tamara’s role as Kim on GENERAL HOSPITAL. Both have to do with Kim’s grief over losing Oscar (Garren Lake Stitt) and her wish for another baby. I have my issues with this story, however, I’ll keep those to myself.

Soaps She Knows has posted that both Tamara and Billy Miller (Drew Cain) will be off canvas for a while. Not sure what exactly that means or how long, but that might give me the time to get caught up on her episode. Hopefully. But I’m hoping she won’t be gone long. The story below.
Billy Miller (Drew Cain) and Tamara Braun (Kim Nero) will temporarily be off-screen from General Hospital for storyline reasons. Recently Soaps.com reported that Garren Stitt exited General Hospital as their son Oscar Nero, who died from a brain tumor. Stay tuned as more information is released.

ABC Soaps In Depth gave Tamara a Gold Star for her heartbreaking performance as Kim during Oscar’s (Garren Lake Stitt) health decline and death. But then it should be no shock to us, her fans. During her portrayal of my Carly, Tamara received many such honourable mentions for the many ups and downs during her tenure as the one and only Carly Corinthos. Finally glad to see her getting more praise for her acting. We all know she’s a powerhouse. The actual print part can be found in the press section in the new articles link in the header under Gold Star. Click on the image to take you there.
Today’s episode. There’s one thing I would like to point out for a bit of consideration or speculation. This is two days in a row we got Tamara in scenes with someone or someones who are in Carly’s life. The first was Joss (Eden McCoy), the second were Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Mike (Max Gail). Could we dare to dream, perhaps, they might be pulling a slip on us? Could we dare to dream what a regular visitor/commenter here to the site CeRon and I have discussed that perhaps there might be a tale of Two Carly’s? With there being the tale of two Jasons (Steve Burton/Billy Miller) supposedly about to wrap up, could we hopefully be given a storyline where we find out “Kim” is really Carly with some mind mapping? Please?
