On January 9, 2025, Mathison revealed on "Good Morning America" that he tragically lost his home to the 2025 Los Angeles fires. Mathison, who had resided in his Pacific Palisades home for a decade, was able to leave the area safely. However, he lost most of his belongings, save for the clothes on his body and a couple of personal items. "I've been up all night. I can't sleep," he said. "I've lost my home and everything that I own. I have this hoodie, a pair of pants, and two pairs of sneakers left. That's it." While Mathison was grateful to make it out unharmed with the few belongings he was able to take, he also lamented about the irreplaceable possessions he lost and the surreal nature of the situation.
