Lee shared an update on Instagram on December 23, explaining the efforts being made to help Chase access support. "I just wanted to give you an update," he said. "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." 

Lee later spent time with Chase over a meal and arranged a FaceTime call with Devon Werkheiser, who starred as Ned Bigby on the Nickelodeon series. "So, today I went to have pizza with him," Lee continued. "Also, I got to let him chat with his old friend Devon Werkheiser."

Following the call, Lee helped Chase secure a hotel room during the busy holiday period. "He trusted an old friend," Lee said. "He wanted to stay local and this was the only one that was open."

The reunion ended with an emotional farewell, with Lee promising to return. "Love you, dude," Chase replied. "Thank you. I'm so happy to see you."

Lee has spoken openly about the concern surrounding his former co-star. "He's on my heart, often on my mind," he said in a December 22 Instagram video, adding that Chase "seems to be really excited about the fact that so many people have been inspired by him."

Werkheiser has also expressed hope that public attention will lead to meaningful help. "We all want a happy ending," he said, describing Chase as "a sensitive, sweet, and kind kid." He 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."
