General Hospital
GH’s Cameron Mathison Teases Explosive Willow/Drew Affair Reveal, “I Know Many People Out There That Aren’t Happy with Drew”
On the Friday, December 13th episode of General Hospital look for the video bombshell of the year! That’s when the Quartermaine family will all learn that Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) and Drew (Cameron Mathison) had sex, and Willow cheated on her husband, Michael (Chad Duell) in a major way. By the way, Michael also cheated on Willow with Sasha (Sofia Mattsson), who is now pregnant, but we’ll save that plot point for another day.
Drew’s portrayer, Cameron Mathison weighed-in on his soap opera alter ego’s recent actions when talking with TV Insider. Mathison shared, “I had no idea that Drew’s character would almost do a 180 as far as what he’s willing to do and the sacrifices he’s willing to make for this love for this woman (Willow). So, it’s way bigger and wilder and more disruptive than I ever could have imagined, which I say in an exciting way.”
The seemingly turn to a conniving, selfish, manipulative and arrogant Drew, has left many longtime viewers of the soap scratching their heads at how deceitful the character has become. Mathison elaborated, “I know many people out there that aren’t happy with Drew, and initially that was hard for me. But I’m just going to say that these things happen in real life, and I think it’s really good story and giving a lot of other people really good story. But even more than that, I think it’s the making of, potentially, a really beautiful love story. I really do.”

On the affair with Willow, having sex with her mother, Nina (Cynthia Watros), and duping his nephew, Michael and more, Mathison feels Drew’s actions stem from feeling betrayed and being outcast. Cameron teased, “You’ll see as the story develops, there’s more of that, and I think he’s just really latching on to Willow, who’s also a little bit of an outsider in a sense. But I feel like it’s making sense to him, and even though what he’s doing isn’t right – sleeping with his nephew’s wife – sometimes love can make you do some crazy things.”
So, are you looking forward to Drew and Willow’s affair being exposed? Do you hope Drew gets what’s coming to him? Are you hoping that Drew and Willow end up together? Share your thoughts via the comment section. But first, take a look at the official GH video teaser for today’s episode below.
The absolute last thing I want to see is a prolonged love story between Drew and Willow. There are so many layers to this story that are icky. The character of Drew has become insufferable, and they’ve also destroyed Willow’s character at this point. If the writers want to pair these two together, they should have Willow leave Port Charles with Drew and ship them both off to D.C.
It’s too bad that we know Michael is leaving, because I would LOVE for Nelle to come back right about now and cause some chaos for everyone involved in this awful storyline.
Ugh who cares. If they are starting a serial killer storyline, can these 2 characters be moved up to the top of the list?
Drew and Willow is an instant fast forward for me. I literally cringe anytime either one of them is on screen together, either separately or together. They have what is called in pro wrestling “go away heat.” And it seems like that opinion is shared by the vast majority of the comments I see on social media and elsewhere, which is usually a pretty solid barometer of which stories and characters are working and which are not working. Yet they keep insisting on shoving them down everyone’s throat.
Since he got elected to Congress, Drew should take a one way ticket to Washington DC, and take Willow with him. They make me sick at this point. Drew was an interesting, complex character when Billy Miller played the role, now due largely to the writing, the character has been ruined.
Write both Drew and Willow off. So tired of this storyline.
Usually I have zero opinion of Carly good or bad. Today she grated on my nerves. I couldn’t stand her. I wanted someone to snatch Carly and tell her to stay out of it. Since Tracy was already riled up, I was hoping she would tell Carly to shut the hell up just for the thrill of it.
What was the purpose of showing Carly go upstairs at the Qs? She doesn’t live there and her grandkids were at the gatehouse. Unless she went to see if Jason was upstairs or went to try to talk Monica into kicking Drew out – it was a weird stage decision.
Great seeing the Wyndemere living room set again. Thought that might’ve been gone for good.
She was on my nerves at the Q’s and when she went into the Gatehouse I’d had enough. Stay out of it. Nina was on my nerves too by that point. It’s sick anyway…all 3 women in the Gatehouse have slept with Drew. What’s become of this show saddens me.
Curious thing about the Wyndemere scenes…
Last few times we saw the castle, there were drop cloths over all the furniture and cobwebs everywhere. But this time the castle looked like it was very much “lived in”. So who exactly is living there?
And did anybody else notice the pillow on the couch with the giant “H” monogram on it? What does that stand for?
It’s not Helena. I just checked, and she’s still down here!
Carly is seen more in the Q mansion than she is seen at her own house. She stomps around it like she owns the joint. She probably matched upstairs, put on a pair of tap shoes and performed a loud tap dance to “ Tea for Two” just to dominate the house’s atmosphere.
Back in the day, Edward would refer to all the non-Q mansion inhabitants as interlopers and hangers-on. He couldn’t stand most of them, while Lila found joy in almost everyone.
With all those interlopers living (and frequently visiting) there, the Q living room/foyer and kitchen sets are near permanent fixtures. We’ve come a long way from the days when only Monica, Edward and Tracy would occasionally pop up in the den.
Oh how I wanted Tracy to verbally lay into Carly and Nina. If Willow smacks the crap out of either of them while they’re in her face dictating her next moves, I would understand. I ain’t condoning it, but I understand.
Yes your viewers are upset about killing out your top actors. Is your head writer plaining to close up the GH series. Alot of us are upset with the story line. Please think who really needs to be removed.
Watching GH is almost a chore lately.
The “porn clip” of two family members with many family members watching it longer than necessary? Tracy seemingly enjoy it?
This is not the GH I once loved.
Something feels like these are its end days, unless the reboot of all thr Spencer’s can save it 2025.
Tptb should be well aware by now the new writing team is very much disliked. Yet they keep shoveling out this uncreative trash.
TPTB don’t give a crap, and it has shown the past ten years.
Closer to 13 years now, at least as of February.
Tracy seemingly enjoy it?
If that’s how you read the scene, then I suggest re-watching it.
Does “schadenfreude” work better? That is how I saw it. You may have seen it differently.. and that’s ok too, Scott.
Traci enjoyed rubbing Nina’s face in it for sure. She gets real close to Nina and says,” with a grin, “Willow’s affair with Drew must really hurt seeing you and he have gotten so close.” Great scene especially knowing that Jane and Cynthia adore each other in real life.
I understand what you mean but the football game switching to those two idiots having sex in the nursery made me laugh as hard as Ned was. The only thing that could have been funnier is if the sound of the football game merging with the visual of the sex scene. You’d hear the sports announcer say,” And he makes a pass, he fumbles and makes a field goal!”
Oh the stench of the ick factor isn’t just coming from the writing, it’s coming from the actor himself. Drew, Michael’s uncle, is way too old to be pursuing Willow. This is not romantic love, he’s exhibiting predatory behavior. And Willow has never received the therapy she needed after being drugged, raped and impregnated by a cult leader. Writers need to examine why Willow is drawn to Drew while drawing parallels between Shiloh and Drew.
Would also be interesting to see if there was something to cause Drew’s turn from generally well liked personality to a total heel.
Exactly. If they don’t offer a viable explanation for both Drew and Willow’s behavior, what you have is plot driven writing, not character driven writing.
It’s so unfortunate. Episodic television used to be the mecca for character driven writing. Save the plot driven writing for comic book movies and scripted reality shows.
If Michael dies, I hope it’s at Drew’s hand, then they can get rid of him too, as his killer.
So happy for the fast forward. Hate Willow and Drew !! Let them both go to Washington , permanently !! They would fit right in !!
And get them some orange outfits too, huh?
I didn’t like him and his scroungy look with Carly and he’s disgusting with Willow, at least Nina is more his age and have a lot in common, two of a kind! Wish they’d sic Cyrus on him.
I think what Willow and drew did was a big mistake and that they deserve the fallout for it. Especially if they’re going to act like they did nothing wrong.She is a horrible person and so is he

General Hospital fans took to social media following the airing of the Wednesday, October 21 episode of the ABC daytime drama series. In story, Molly (Kristen Vaganos) reveals to Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) that she has received an offer to join the top law firm in Chicago that practices civil law. She says it’s her dream job.
The problem Molly says is relocating from Port Charles and uprooting her life and being away from her mother, Scout and boyfriend Cody Bell (Josh Kelly). Wistful that she may lose another daughter to a long-distance situation (Kristina left a few months back to go to medical school in California), Alexis urged Molly to get Cody to go with her.
Molly still seemed concerned and has trouble committing to the idea. Alexis tells her to talk it over with Cody. Meanwhile, Cody asked Tracy (Jane Elliot) is he can have Thanksgiving off because he and Molly planned to spend Thanksgiving together with their families. After initially balking, Tracy agrees.

WILL MOLLY AND CODY HEAD TO CHI-TOWN?
Later, Cody shows up at Miller & Davis and the conversation turned to Thanksgiving dinner that Alexis is hosting. Molly and Cody asked her not to cook anything. Cody hugged Molly reassuring Alexis that he and Molly would take care of whatever was needed on Turkey Day.
So, this raises the question, why out of nowhere are we learning that Molly received an amazing law offer in Chicago, if the character was not being written out? If Molly leaves the canvas, would the character of Cody make his exit too?
Kristen Vaganos joined GH as a recast Molly Lansing-Davis back in September of 2023 and went on contract in August of 2024. Josh Kelly began playing Cody Bell back in June of 2022. Initial reports were that Kelly joined the show on contract and then as of June 2025 went on recurring status with the show per his choice.
Do you see a world where GH is writing out Molly and Cody? Would you be sad to see Kristen and Josh exit the soap opera? If this is not what is going on, is this just a plot point for some other story that is upcoming? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section.
It’s been over two-years since his last appearance on General Hospital, now fan favorite Kin Shriner (Scott Baldwin) has taken to social media to share his thoughts on the casting of his grown-up TV daughter, Serena Baldwin now played by Kelly Kruger.
Kelly took over the role of Serena on-screen starting with the July 30, 2026 episode and has been ensconced in the storyline with her mother, Lucy Coe (Lynn Herring), in trying to win back full creative control of Deception for her.
In fact on the Monday, October 19 episode of the ABC soap opera, Serena tried to dupe Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) into signing over Michael’s (Rory Gibson) shares of the company. Jason caught on and wondered why she was doing this. She claimed she just wanted to help her mom gain creative control from Tracy (Jane Elliot) rather than full ownership, and begged Jason to keep quiet about it, which he agreed to for now.

WHERE IS SCOTT?
On Monday, Shriner also took to X and said, “I think Kelly Kruger is doing a great job on General Hospital, and she and Lynn Herring work well together.” That was followed by comments in his thread about the show needing to bring back Scott too.
In fact, back on August 25, Shriner also took to X with a reminder that Scott is still around and ready to come back to Port Charles, sharing, “Scotty Baldwin always fits in he just needs the right sport coat !!!!”
The last time Serena mentioned her father Scott was when Kruger made her debut and informed Lucy that her father was, “living his best life in Key West.” Meanwhile, Shriner posts on his X account continually and shared back on August 2, that it has been 49 years since he made his on-screen debut as then teenaged, Scotty Baldwin and thanked the fans for al the love and support.
So, now let us know, are you enjoying Kelly Kruger as Serena Baldwin? Do you want to see GH bring back Scott Baldwin into the story, so Serena has both her parents in Port Charles? Do you like the potential of Jason and Serena pairing? Weigh-in via the comment section below.
