Boy Meets World’s Maitland Ward Details Set Up Danielle Fishel Feud
During this time, Maitland found the women on set—including herself, Danielle and Trina McGee, who played Angela—were put into stereotyped boxes: she describes herself as “the provocative one,” while labeling Danielle, 43, as “the golden child,” and Trina, 55, as “the grown-up.”
And looking back at the show—which ended in 2000 after seven seasons—she can see how much that box shaped her character.
“I was more of the sexy one and it’s funny looking back on all of the episodes,” she explained to E! News. I was so much part of the sexual butt of the joke and a lot of them. At the time I had no thoughts of like, it was anything fetishy or sexual but looking back now, I’m like, ‘Wow, that if I did that naked, I could sell that on OnlyFans.’ You know?”
Despite her reflections, Maitland doesn’t look back sourly at her time on Boy Meets World. In fact, in addition to her enduring friendship with star Ben Savage, she describes her current relationship with the show’s creator as “wonderful,” especially after he called her to discuss some of the issues she brings up in her memoir.
“I give him so many props for calling me and we just spoke for like an hour and a half,” she noted. “We really hashed a lot of stuff out. He’s very supportive.”
