Steve & Sheree Burton’s History
Rewinding a bit, Sheree and Steve met on the GH set. The two tied the knot in 1999 and welcomed their first daughter in 2003.
The couple ended up having two other children during their marriage, a son in 2006 and a daughter in 2014.
When Sheree teased that she was pregnant in May 2022 with baby number 4 on an Instagram Story, many GH fans naturally thought it was Steve’s; however, this was not the case.

He officially filed for divorce in July 2022, while Sheree welcomed her fourth child in February 2023. The couple finalized their divorce in December 2023.
