Katelyn MacMullen’s Willow Tait married Drew Cain on the December 2, 2025 episode of General Hospital in a quiet, tense living room ceremony that felt more like a legal maneuver than a love story.

Still out on bail after being accused of shooting Drew himself, Willow showed up in a simple white cocktail dress, suitcase in hand, and said “I do” in front of Alexis (who officiated), Nina, Elizabeth, Martin, and little Scout as flower girl: no church, no fanfare, and almost zero joy on anyone’s face except Drew’s.

The reason is brutally straightforward: Willow believes marrying a congressman gives her the best shot at regaining custody of Wiley and Amelia from Michael.

Katelyn told Soap Opera Digest this week, “She has nothing left to lose, she is terrified, but she is doing the only thing she thinks might work.”

She even continued to wear the engagement ring Michael had initially given her; Drew simply slid the wedding band next to it.

The symbolism was not lost on viewers; social media lit up with everything from stunned laughter to outright rage.

This is Willow’s fourth trip down the aisle in seven years on the canvas, but Katelyn plays it with a raw, exhausted edge that keeps it from feeling cartoonish.

You can see the calculation behind her eyes, mixed with flickers of real affection for Drew and genuine love for Scout.

It is the kind of layered work that has earned her back-to-back Daytime Emmy nominations in the past and multiple “Performer of the Week” honors throughout 2025.

Fans are fiercely split.

Some call it the most hated pairing in years; others are fascinated watching Katelyn navigate Willow’s spiral, paranoia, possible DID teases, and all.

Whatever side you land on, one thing is undeniable: MacMullen is carrying one of the heaviest, messiest arcs on the show right now and making every desperate choice feel heartbreakingly human.

From almost quitting acting for a nutrition career, to moving from Reno back to L.A. to chase the dream, to now playing a mother who will literally marry the man she may have tried to kill if it gets her children back, Katelyn MacMullen has turned 2025 into her breakout year.

The wedding is done, the fallout is just beginning, and Willow Cain is officially a thing, and Port Charles will never be the same.
