Steve Burton alleges ex-wife barred him from taking daughter to Daytime Emmys.
The Brief
- Steve Burton claims ex-wife denied him access to daughter at Emmys.
- Texts show disagreement over daughter's exposure to Hollywood.
- Dispute over child's living arrangements has persisted for months.
Steve Burton, a star of 'General Hospital,' claims his ex-wife, Sheree Gustin, denied him the opportunity to take their 12-year-old daughter, Brooklyn, to the Daytime Emmys. The dispute is based on texts obtained by TMZ and submitted to court documents.
According to the texts, Burton requested to take Brooklyn to the Emmys, proposing to swap days with his ex-wife. He emphasized the importance of the event, describing it as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for their daughter.
Sheree Gustin allegedly responded by stating she did not want Brooklyn near the 'Hollywood scene,' citing concerns about the child's exposure. She also referenced Burton's past career and his public presence, suggesting she felt the child was already overexposed.
Burton countered by pointing out that Sh, his ex-wife, has a business built from social media, which includes Brooklyn. He argued that the child's presence at the Emmys was not about publicity but about family time.
The texts do not show a response from Sheree to Burton's final message. The dispute over their daughter's access to the Emmys is part of a broader disagreement that has continued for months, including debates over where the child should live.
