Former Boys Meets World star Maitland Ward says her acting career is getting back on track thanks to her detour into the world of pornography.

The actress, 44, found fame in the Disney Channel show as Rachel Maguire, years before she started starring in porn movies.

But now she says her new career has led her back to her old one, with her landing a role in new TV sitcom The Big Time.

Maitland joined the porn industry in 2019 and made a huge impression, scooping eight major awards, including the Best Actress prize for her film Muse at this year’s AVNs, which are considered the Oscars of porn.
