Boy Meets World star Trina McGee weighed in on the war of words between former costars Danielle Fishel and Maitland Ward.
McGee, who is 55 years old and known for her role as Angela Moore on the sitcom from 1997 to 2000, shared three videos on TikTok. She also made a cameo appearance in “Girl Meets World” in 2015. The videos were posted on Tuesday, February 25, and were all set to audio featuring clashes between Fishel, aged 43, and Ward, aged 48, from the “Pod Meets World” podcast. This podcast is hosted by Fishel and former “Boy Meets World” co-stars Rider Strong and Will Friedle.
In the first video, McGee was seen standing by a white piano, capturing various angles of herself using her camera phone. The video also captured her puckered pout. An hour later, she posted a second clip where she was sitting on a step, dramatically sighing as the audio played.
In the third and final post, McGee was seen dressed in a strapless red gown, sitting behind a microphone in a studio. Her peers were arranging the setting around her. At the beginning of the video, she was seen giggling, then flicking her wrist and pouting at the camera.
The second half of the third video captured McGee slowly sipping from a teacup as she kept the camera firmly focused on her blank expression. McGee’s fans expressed their delight in her posts with one user commenting on the third video, “Enjoying the tea while drinking literal tea! You’re amazing!” and another writing, “In Trina we trust.”

McGee’s posts landed just hours prior to an Instagram announcement that revealed she is set to launch her own podcast titled, “Back to the 90s.” Sharing a lengthy explanation via her social media account, McGee wrote, “This is more than just a show; it’s a celebration of everything we loved about that iconic decade. From the unforgettable music that got us dancing to the classic sitcoms that made us laugh until we cried, we’re diving into all the magic that made the 90s so special.”
McGee’s fans were quick to comment on the podcast reveal, including Fishel, who portrayed Topanga Lawrence in Boy Meets World. “Congratulations! Excited to check this out!” Fishel wrote in the comments section.
Fishel and Ward, who played Rachel McGuire in the series, butted heads as they began rehashing their long-standing feud on Monday’s “Pod Meets World” episode. The tension when Fishel asked Ward, “Do you hate us?” with Ward replying, “No, I do not hate you. I think that you hate me because you wouldn’t speak to me on Girl Meets World and that was hurtful.”
Fishel appeared surprised by the accusation, before claiming she did speak to Ward, before both parties got into further beef over an unviewed Facebook post from Ward that congratulated Fishel on her engagement to now ex-husband Tim Belusko, as well as claims from Ward that suggested the podcast hosts wanted the pair’s feud to blow up on air to boost ratings, and other past perceived versions of events.
