Gay Porn Star Tyler Roberts In ICU After Heart Failure
Str8Up is sorry to report the tragic news that gay porn star Tyler Roberts is fighting for his life right now in the ICU at a Palm Springs, California hospital after suffering multiple-organ failure last week.
Roberts, a legendary and beloved performer who’s starred in dozens of gay porn scenes since his debut in 2008, was on vacation in Palm Springs when his medical crisis began, and family members are with him now as he’s hopefully able to recover. Details on what led to the hospitalization and what the exact prognosis is were not immediately available as of post time, but a verified GoFundMe has been launched to help cover hospital costs and other expenses, as detailed in the message below from Roberts’ family:
Our funny, sweet, sassy, gentle giant has fallen into critical condition while on vacation in Palm Springs. He’s currently battling for his life in the ICU, facing heart, liver, and kidney failure, among other dangerous ailments. We need him to focus on healing and stabilizing, so we’re asking his family, friends, and community for support. We need to raise funds for his bills (rent, car, utilities, etc.) and medical costs to relieve any stress while he is in the hospital. We’re also raising money for his mother, Lori, and partner, Josh, to be able to stay in Palm Springs by his side. Neither of them lives in California, so they will need funds for their long-term stays and food since they cannot work. Please keep [Tyler] in your thoughts and send healing energy his way during this scary and unpredictable time.

Tyler Roberts’ boyfriend, Aaron, has also shared the news on social media, noting that he has a “long road ahead to recovery”:
