The world of soap operas is known for its dramatic plot twists and turns, but sometimes the most shocking revelations come from behind the scenes. In a recent interview,
Cameron Mathison, the talented actor who played Ryan Lavery on the popular soap opera
All My Children, made a startling admission that has left fans stunned. Mathison revealed that he was "hated" by his co-stars and the show's crew for trying to break up the on-screen couple, Hayley and Mateo.
For those who may not be familiar with the show, Hayley and Mateo were one of the most beloved couples on
All My Children, played by
Kelly Ripa and
Tito Ortiz. Their on-screen romance was a central plot point on the show, and fans were deeply invested in their relationship. However, Mathison's character, Ryan, was often at odds with the couple, and his attempts to drive them apart were a major source of conflict.
According to Mathison, his efforts to break up Hayley and Mateo were not just limited to his on-screen character. He revealed that he would often try to convince the show's writers to create storylines that would drive a wedge between the couple, much to the dismay of his co-stars and the crew. "I was hated by everyone on set," Mathison admitted in the interview. "They would all tell me, 'Cameron, why are you trying to break up Hayley and Mateo? They're the best couple on the show!'"
Despite the backlash, Mathison stands by his actions, insisting that he was simply trying to create a more interesting and dramatic storyline. "As an actor, I wanted to push the boundaries and create tension," he explained. "I didn't want to just play the same old love triangle storylines. I wanted to shake things up and make the show more exciting."
While Mathison's intentions may have been pure, his actions clearly had a significant impact on his relationships with his co-stars. Ripa, in particular, has spoken publicly about the tension between her and Mathison during their time on the show. However, it's worth noting that the two have since made amends and remain close friends.
The drama surrounding Hayley and Mateo's on-screen relationship may have been intense, but it's a testament to the show's enduring popularity.
All My Children remains one of the most beloved soap operas of all time, with a dedicated fan base that still talks about the show's iconic characters and storylines to this day.
In conclusion, Cameron Mathison's shocking admission has given fans a fascinating glimpse into the behind-the-scenes drama of
All My Children. While his attempts to break up Hayley and Mateo may have been unpopular with his co-stars and the crew, they undoubtedly contributed to the show's dramatic and unpredictable storyline. As a reminder, the world of soap operas is full of twists and turns, both on and off screen.
