General Hospital star Cameron Mathison can’t seem to catch a break. As if losing his home and everything he ever owned wasn’t daunting much, the actor is now facing the heat of GH viewers, too. Sometimes, it so happens that fans of a soap opera can get too caught up and forget how the on-screen persona of any person is not who they are. A similar thing happened to Cameron Mathison recently. It sounds a little scary to us.
Recently, Cameron Mathison and his other General Hospital co-stars, including Laura Wright, Finola Hughes, Maurice Benard, Tanisha Harper, and Donnell Turner, appeared on the Jennifer Hudson Show. While in conversation, Cameron made a big revelation. He opened up about how he has been dealing with everything around him.
For the fans who don’t know, Cameron Mathison lost his home in the recent LA wildfires. He lost not just his home but a place. But, he thought it was a testament to how much he loved his family and kids. He went on to say that while it was a very tough time. Mathison is grateful to his co-actors and that whatever is happening on the soap opera. He says that Laura Wright’s character yelling on him, was a welcome distraction.
While Cameron seemed to have stayed grounded and thankful for everything, he shared an instance about how sometimes on-screen personas seep into real life, and that has got us thinking. He recalled an instance where he was at a supermarket. One of GH’s fans had recognized him there and went on like; I hate Drew Cain and his actions. While saying things under their breath were still okay, the fan went on to throw an apple from across the produce section at the actor.
While Cameron seemed to be smiling as he told this story, he also considered that it could be worse. But, as fans, it makes us think that sometimes it’s so important to keep that discretion on the fact that actors are not who their characters are. Do you believe what happened with Mathison was fair?
