What is the Harris family drama on TikTok? Daisy benzodiazepines allegations explained

The famous Harris Family on TikTok recently found themselves involved in a controversy. The Australian couple Brock and Allanah Harris are at the center of the story after it was alleged that Allanah drugged her one-year-old daughter Daisy, resulting in months of hospitalization and two needless brain surgeries.

As per a Tribune report from November 19, Daisy was never truly unwell, even if her medical condition was reported as severe. Nevertheless, claims that Allanah purposefully gave Daisy a drug called benzodiazepines to induce her symptoms have garnered criticism from their millions of followers.

As a result, the youngest of the Harris Family became sleepy and ill and was admitted to the hospital. According to the US Drug Enforcement Administration, benzodiazepines are a class of depressive medications used to treat a variety of illnesses, including anxiety, sleeplessness, and seizures.

On the other hand, as per The Express Tribune's November 19 report, it has been speculated that Allanah allegedly suffers from Munchausen by proxy. According to MedlinePlus, it is a mental condition in which a caregiver purposely creates physical symptoms or makes up an illness in someone under their care in order to attract sympathy, attention, or other gains.

Additionally, during Daisy’s surgeries and other medical difficulties, the Harris family also pleaded with their TikTok followers to help pay for her medical bills. They even created a GoFundMe page, which brought in a substantial amount.

However, the controversy started, after an anonymous social media user posted information on the platform. After noticing inconsistencies in Allanah's posts, nurses who were monitoring her social media accounts claimed that she was publishing false information for influence.

Their worries led to additional research, which finally revealed that Daisy's symptoms were caused by high benzodiazepine levels in her body.

As per the same Ghana Celebrities report, the anonymous source further alleged in a screenshot that the Harris family child had been drugged by either Brock or Allanah. The same source wrote on TikTok:

“Got some Harris family goss for you. So the mum/dad or mum and dad have drugged Daisy the whole time! Some of the nurses started following her insta page/tiktok and was like hmm no, she’s spreading false info- she doesn’t have brain tumors and she was never palliative."

It further read:

"After her last brain surgery which found nothing, the children’s hospital decided to run a toxicology report and it showed that Daisy had a high reading for benzodiazepines which is like Valium ect.”

On the other hand, according to a Tribune article from the same day, after this shocking revelation, Allanah's niece declared that the family had been informed of the situation but Brock had disappeared in the meantime.

The father of the Harris family later returned to social media and made a public announcement on TikTok on November 19, denying any role in Allanah's alleged actions. He said:

“I had no idea about what Allanah was doing to Daisy. I pushed for those surgeries because I thought they were necessary.”

Explaining his love for his kids and expressing his profound regret for not realizing the problem sooner, Brock went on to say, "I'm so sorry.”

On the other hand, as per the same Tribune report, Child Protective Services stepped in when the toxicology report validated the results. Following the removal of Daisy and the couple's other three children from the Harris family custody, reports suggest that Daisy is currently doing well in protective care.

Meanwhile, the same anonymous whistleblower also stated in their post:

“Kids have been taken off them and I’m not too sure where the mum and dad are however Daisy is under the care of child protection and is still in hospital AWAKE, Sitting up, eating – being a normal 1 year old,”

On the other hand, Allanah is currently facing severe legal repercussions, including possible fraud and child abuse allegations. Brock’s position continues to be under investigation, as officials attempt to ascertain whether he was complicit or really oblivious of his wife’s alleged acts.
