‘General Hospital’ Star Cameron Mathison Makes Candid Confession About Future With New Girlfriend

Fan favorite actor Cameron Mathison has been through a lot of heartache over the past few years, but he recently opened up about finding love and happiness again. The actor, who plays Drew Cain on General Hospital, was featured on two recent episodes of the I Do, Part 2 podcast with Richard Marx and Daisy Fuentes. In the episodes, he reflected on the difficulties of the past few years and shared details about his relationship with his new girlfriend.

During the episode of I Do, Part 2, released on November 7, the Great American Family actor, who also starred in a number of Hallmark films, talked about his relationship with Taelyr Robinson.

Mathison, 57, and Robinson, 33, went “Instagram Official” in August, noted Just Jared. The actor included her in photos he posted on Instagram on August 17, and Robinson gave him a sweet shoutout on her Instagram page a week later. Now, Mathison hints that the relationship might be getting serious.

Mathison said that he and Robinson met via the dating app Raya. He acknowledged that the romance is still relatively new, but he also revealed they have had serious discussions about the longterm potential of marriage and having kids together.

The actor also noted that he typically keeps details about his private life fairly private, whereas Robinson, being younger, is more attuned to going “Instagram Official” and things of that nature. Mathison shared, “I’m learning compromise and stuff, but I’m very open and happy to put it out there and share it with people.”

Robinson has been modeling since she was young, according to Soap Opera Digest, and she was Miss Maryland USA 2000. She is the cohost of The Becoming Club podcast, and Mathison was on an episode of it in June.

During his appearance on I Do, Part 2, Mathison described Robinson as “incredibly kind and sweet and smart and fun, adventurous and supportive.” While he dated around a little after separating from his wife, Vanessa Mathison, the actor says he’s found he is “way, way better as a devoted, loyal person, a caring, loving partner.”

Mathison spoke about the challenges he’s navigated over the past few years in the first part of his visit to I Do, Part 2, which was released on November 5. He noted that in addition to surviving cancer, he lost his mom to cancer, his treasured dog Red died, and he experienced a separation from his wife all in a short period of time.

In addition, he shared he lost a job he “loved” when Hallmark canceled Home & Family, and in January 2025, his family home in California burned down in the wildfires. He joked that he has told Robinson that she’s getting “a little beat-up version of me. A lot of duct tape and staples.”

While Mathison doesn’t fully know what lies ahead in this fresh chapter of his life, the General Hospital star expressed that he is “open to marriage…and, you know, exploring the possibility of being open to kids again. So that’s where I’m at.”
