Maitland Ward, star of the popular 90s TV show “Boy Meets World,” has spoken out about a tense conversation she had on her podcast appearance with former co-stars Danielle Fishel and Rider Strong. The conversation took place just days after a contentious episode of their rewatch podcast, Pod Meets World, which left many fans wondering what went wrong.
In the conversation, Fishel asked Ward if she hated her co-stars, leading to an emotional discussion about past interactions and relationships on set. Ward accused the hosts of “grilling” her in a quest for ratings, but claimed that she was the one who wouldn’t talk to them privately about their issues.
Ward expressed disappointment with the way the conversation went down, feeling led into a confrontation by Will Friedle, her friend on the show. However, she made it clear that she doesn’t hold any ill will towards Fishel and added that she wishes her co-star well.
Despite the tension, Ward stated that she values her connection with fans and was looking forward to catching up with old friends. She assured that she’ll speak to Friedle, Fishel, and Strong again in the future, citing their shared experience on “Boy Meets World” as a special bond that will always remain strong.
The podcast hosts had initially planned casual conversations before taping but felt it didn’t translate well into a live setting. Ward described the experience as hurtful and shocking but also recognized its value in connecting with her fans once again.
