Tyler Henry

Background

Tyler Henry Koelewyn was born on January 13, 1996. He was born in Hanford, California, a small town near Fresno. He attended college after graduating from Sierra Pacific High School in Hanford for only a short time. He is openly gay, and he’s dating Clint Godwin, a professional photographer. When he was ten years old, he recognized he had clairvoyant powers, he claims. Koelewyn made an appearance on “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” in November 2015, giving a reading to one of the Kardashian sisters.

“Hollywood Medium With Tyler Henry” aired on E! in January 2016. E! announced in March 2016 that the show had been renewed for a second season. In the same year, Koelewyn released a memoir titled “Between Two Worlds: Lessons from the Other Side.” “Here & Hereafter: How Wisdom from the Departed Can Transform Your Life Now,” his second book, was published in 2022. “People” magazine published an article in February 2018 ahead of the third season of “Hollywood Medium.” Koelewyn’s assertions regarding his talents, the evolution of his “powers,” and his reading with La Toya Jackson, which would air in the next season and in which he claimed to contact Michael Jackson, were all covered in the article. In 2019, the show came to an end after four seasons. “Life After Death with Tyler Henry,” his second Netflix series, premiered on March 11, 2022. Nancy Grace, Alan Thicke, Amber Rose, the Kardashians, Megan Fox, Bobby Brown, and Tom Arnold are just a few of the celebrities who have had readings from Koelewyn.

Scientific critics believe that mediumship is a fraud and that Koelewyn is no exception. Skeptic activists and others concerned about his rising popularity have worked hard to dispel the public’s belief that what he promises to do is valid. They believe, in particular, that he makes his claims using a combination of cold reading techniques and prior knowledge of his subjects, or hot reading. Sessions with Ronda Rousey, Carole Radziwill, Matt Lauer, and Nancy Grace are just a few examples of where he allegedly used these techniques. Koelewyn’s acts have been criticized as exploitative, and he has been regarded as one of many mediums who lack counseling expertise, posing a tremendous risk of injury. He embraces criticism about his art, telling the “Fresno Bee,” “I am content with people asking questions.”
