GIRL MEETS WORLD

‘Boy Meets World’ Star Welcomes First Child at 45

The series’ star became a father at 45 on Wednesday.

Boy Meets World star Ben Savage’s firstborn daughter met the world herself on Wednesday. Savage, 45, played Corey Matthews on the series from 1993 to 2000. He announced the news on Instagram with several snaps of his daughter’s first moments, including one where he excitedly sports a “Girl Dad” t-shirt. Savage and his wife Tessa Angermeier wed in 2023 before welcoming their baby girl this week. Savage has stepped back from acting over the last few years, aside from a few TV movies. Some of his former Boy Meets World co-stars, several of whom host the rewatch podcast Pod Meets World, said the star “disappeared from their lives.” Danielle Fishell, who played Topanga on the series, said, “He ghosted us.”
