When ‘Boy Meets World’ Turns into ‘Girls Gone Wild’: Maitland Ward Calls Out Danielle Fishel’s Orchestrated Confrontation
So, it looks like the drama from the beloved ’90s series “Boy Meets World” isn’t quite over yet! Former co-stars Maitland Ward and Danielle Fishel reignited their feud recently on the podcast “Pod Meets World,” and let’s just say, things got spicy. Ward has accused Fishel of attempting to catch her off guard during a heated discussion, where she felt blindsided. In an interview, Maitland claimed, “I think she wanted to catch me off guard… and she did.”
This tense exchange highlights more than just a nostalgic reunion; it dives deep into hurt feelings left over from their days on set. Their feud traces back to a Facebook message Maitland sent Danielle in 2013, where she congratulated her on her engagement and the launch of the “Girl Meets World” spin-off. According to Fishel, she could only find this message years later, buried in the “graveyard of messages.” Not exactly the perfect bridge to mend relationships, right?
Maitland, who joined the iconic series in its later seasons, wished that the podcast episode had given her a heads-up about the impending drama since she was hoping to smooth things over rather than reignite old tensions. Despite the rocky back-and-forth, Fishel downplayed the fallout, noting that both have “totally different but perfectly valid experiences.” This casts a shadow of doubt on whether they’ll ever be able to bury the hatchet for real.
What adds a juicy twist to the story is that a couple of years ago, Fishel reached out to Maitland after learning about a heartfelt message she had sent. Yet, Maitland turned down the chance to connect directly, suggesting it would be much better for the podcast ratings to air their grievances publicly!
In an era where celebrities often exploit their feuds for ratings, one has to wonder if this back-and-forth is more about their personal history or just good old-fashioned showbiz drama. Either way, these two have more than enough material to fill an episode or two! Stay tuned because this tussle is certainly one for the reality TV record books!
