Tylor Chase is finding support from a familiar face.
The “Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide” alum reunited with his former costar Daniel Curtis Lee, who reached out after seeing a heartbreaking video of Chase experiencing homelessness in California.
“I just wanted to give you an update,” Curtis Lee shared in an Instagram video Dec. 23. “Shaun Weiss and his team put a lot of effort into trying to get him into a hospital last night—and I thought it worked. His dad told me it worked, but it turns out he kind of backed out.”
“So, today I went to have pizza with him,” he continued, sharing footage from their meal together. “Also, I got to let him chat with his old friend Devon Werkheiser.”
After the two chatted on FaceTime, Curtis Lee, 34, helped Chase, 36, find accommodations at a hotel amid the busy holiday season.
“He trusted an old friend,” Curtis Lee continued. “He wanted to stay local and this was the only one that was open.”

The two shared a hug before parting ways, with Curtis Lee promising Chase that he’ll return to check up on him.
“Love you, dude,” Chase replied. “Thank you. I’m so happy to see you.”
And Curtis Lee believes the recent outpouring of concern Chase will eventually help him get “back on his feet.”
“He’s on my heart, often on my mind,” the actor shared in a Dec. 22 Instagram video, adding that Chase “seems to be really excited about the fact that so many people have been inspired by him.”
Indeed, there’s a community rallying behind Chase, with Werkheiser — who played the titular Ned Bigby on the Nickelodeon series — recently sharing, “We all want a happy ending.”
“Tylor was a sensitive, sweet, and kind kid,” he told TMZ on Dec. 22. “It is heartbreaking to see him this way.”
The 34-year-old added, “My only hope is that from this exposure, someone with real understanding and resources can step in, get Tylor into treatment, and help him get back on track.”
