Late General Hospital star Sonya Eddy, who died on December 19, 2022, was honored with a posthumous award at the Daytime Emmys last month, but her family still hasn’t received the trophy. According to TMZ, this is because Sonya’s friend and producing partner, Tyler Ford, still has the award after accepting it on her behalf during the ceremony, which took place on December 15, 2023. Sonya’s brother, Robbie Eddy, told TMZ that the family wasn’t told ahead of time that his sister would be receiving a posthumous award. He said the family is now trying to get in touch with the Television Academy to get a hold of the award, which he claimed Ford is refusing to hand over. Robbie went on to say that the family doesn’t plan to take legal action against Ford or the Television Academy because “they don’t want to tarnish Sonya’s memory with a lawsuit.

Tyler Ford seemed like a shoe-in to make it to "The Glee Project" Season 2 finale. The 21-year-old was the show's first-ever transgender contestant, and "Glee" mastermind Ryan Murphy was immediately drawn to Ford's charisma and unbreakable spirit.
Unfortunately, during this week's episode, which challenged the "Glee" hopefuls to showcase their sexy sides, Ford just couldn't stand out among his fellow competitors, and for the third time, he was asked to perform in front of Murphy. Despite being praised by "Glee Project" mentors Zach Woodlee and Robert Ulrich for his growth throughout the competition, Ford wasn't on Murphy's call-back list.
HuffPost TV chatted with the recent "Glee Project" castoff about his time on the show, his embarrassing moment in front of "Glee" star Naya Rivera and how he dealt with being told that he wasn't as vocally talented as everyone else.

Last night’s episode of The Glee Project focused on sexuality, which naturally brought its own share of drama. Charlie got called out for flirting with Aylin, and Michael got lost in his own head and wound up forgetting the lyrics. But at the end of the hour, it was 21-year-old Florida native Tyler Ford whose Glee journey came to an end.
Tyler spoke with EW about making friends, his struggles with displaying sexuality, and why he decided to audition for The Glee Project less than a year after transitioning from being a woman.
Entertainment Weekly: Did you see the episode last night?...
