"Steve Burton's Ex-Wife Speaks Out Against Alienation Claims in Custody Battle"

In a heated response to Steve Burton's claims that his ex-wife, Sheree Burton, is intentionally keeping him away from their daughter Brooklyn, Sheree has vehemently denied the allegations. Court documents obtained by our magazine reveal that Sheree is planning to relocate from California to Tennessee, a move that reportedly contrasts with Steve's alleged travel plans. Sheree, who was married to the 'General Hospital' star for 23 years, has stated that she has been the primary caregiver for their 12-year-old daughter since day one. She claims that Steve's frequent travels – primarily to New York or Tennessee when he wasn't on set in Los Angeles – made it difficult for him to spend quality time with Brooklyn. The documents state that a custody schedule was established, but things took a turn when Steve announced his plans to move from California to Tennessee in February 2026. Sheree asserts that she graciously allowed their daughter to visit her father often during this period. However, things apparently did not go according to plan, with Steve claiming the visitation arrangement wasn't working for him and seeking a modification of the custody agreement. Sheree claims Steve informed her of his intention to move back to California due to these issues, but now she wants to relocate to Tennessee herself. In court documents, Sheree pleaded with the judge to allow her to make the move, citing the potential implications if Brooklyn were ordered to remain in California. Her concern is that she may be replaced as the primary caregiver by Steve's new wife, rather than remaining Brooklyn's biological mother. Sheree also accused Steve of poor communication and claimed his messages are filled with baseless accusations, such as alleging her of alienating him from their daughter – a claim she firmly denies. As previously reported, Steve filed for divorce in 2022 after two decades of marriage, just a few months after Sheree announced her pregnancy with another man's child. At the time, Steve confirmed his separation from Sheree. The ongoing custody battle between the former couple continues to unfold.
