Former “Boy Meets World” actress Maitland Ward has publicly voiced her support for Ben Savage’s congressional campaign and called out other ex-costars who have chosen not to endorse him. The actress, who has transitioned from teen TV star to adult film actress, was spotted in Beverly Hills wearing a “Savage For Congress” t-shirt, speaking highly of Savage’s character and his dedication to his community as he runs for California’s 30th district, which encompasses parts of Los Angeles and its northern suburbs.
Key Takeaway
Maitland Ward, former “Boy Meets World” star, publicly supports Ben Savage’s congressional campaign and criticizes other ex-costars who have chosen not to endorse him. Ward believes that their lack of support may be due to personal grievances rather than a judgment of Savage’s qualifications for office.
Ever since Savage announced his campaign in January, Ward has been a vocal supporter. However, she expressed her disappointment in other “Boy Meets World” stars, particularly Rider Strong, who has stated that he will not be endorsing Savage simply because they worked together on a TV show as teenagers. Ward believes that Strong and his podcast co-hosts, Danielle Fishel and Will Friedle, are harboring resentment towards Savage for not joining their podcast as a co-host.
While some of Savage’s former co-stars may not be rallying behind his campaign, Ward remains steadfast in her support for him. She views Savage as a compassionate and forward-thinking individual who genuinely cares about making a positive impact in his community. Ward’s endorsement comes as a boost for Savage as he seeks to secure a seat in Congress and represent the interests of his constituents.
As the campaign continues, it remains to be seen whether other “Boy Meets World” stars will publicly endorse Savage or maintain their stance of neutrality. However, Ward’s unwavering support serves as a reminder that political alliances can sometimes be influenced by personal dynamics and the dynamics of show business.
