Soap Star Cameron Mathison Opens Up About New Girlfriend Taelyr Robinson, Reveals the Dating App They Met On

A relationship made public

Mathison said he met Robinson in April 2026. He made their relationship official on Instagram in September, although Robinson had posted pictures with him before then. He called Robinson kind, smart, adventurous and supportive, and said they have much in common. Mathison added that he had not expected to find that level of connection again after his long relationship with Vanessa.

Dating after separation

Mathison said dating after his marriage ended initially served as a distraction, but he met many women he considered remarkable. He said he did not enjoy dating around and described himself as a better partner when devoted to one person.

He also recalled that using a dating app at 55 felt messy, odd and surreal after being in a relationship for nearly 25 years, counting the time he and Vanessa dated. The article does not identify which dating app he used to meet Robinson.

Sharing the relationship online

Mathison said he is usually more private and noted that Robinson is younger than he is. He described making the relationship public on Instagram as a compromise, while saying he was happy to share it. He said the significance of being Instagram official may be greater for younger generations, and that he is learning as they navigate the relationship.

Separation and family details

In May, Mathison and Vanessa Arevalo jointly filed for legal separation rather than divorce for now. The court filing indicated they either agreed or planned to agree on matters including property division, support and attorneys’ fees.

The two met in New York City in 1998 and married on July 27, 2002. They have a son, Lucas, 23, and a daughter, Leila, 19. They announced their separation on July 31, 2024, four days after their 22nd wedding anniversary.
