Who Is Maitland Ward’s Husband?

Maitland Ward is an American pornographic actress, model, and former television actress. She played Rachel McGuire on the sitcom Boy Meets World and Jessica Forrester on the soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful. In 2019, she transitioned from mainstream acting to performing in pornographic films.

In May 2019, Ward signed with adult talent agency Society 15. She stated that she had been approached by porn director Kayden Kross and was “just floored” by the proposition of doing porn. She decided that the move felt natural to her, saying “It’s been an evolution. It’s all been my authentic journey because everything that I have done along the way is something I wanted to explore and do. I just did it publicly for my fans, that is the exhibitionist style of me.” Drive was released online at the website Deeper.com on September 30, 2019.

Beginning in mid-2013, Ward began posting nude and topless photographs of herself on Snapchat and IG username, gaining a large following on both sites. In April 2016, she posted her first nude pictures to social media of her being body painted for Luciano Paesani for a Los Angeles exhibition called “Living Art”. In 2019, she announced on IG username that she would be performing in a pornographic film entitled Drive, a move that some in the media referred to as a “drastic career shift”. Maitland received support from former Boy Meets World co-star Trina McGee.

Ward married real estate agent Terry Baxter on October 21, 2006. The couple met on set, and she credits their friendship and humor for the success of their relationship.

Her character of Rachel McGuire was added to Boy Meets World in 1998, at the beginning of the sixth season, as a main cast member. This role lasted until the series ended in 2000. After Ward’s stint on Boy Meets World, she appeared in the independent film Dish Dogs, a romantic comedy in which she co-stars with Brian Dennehy, Matthew Lillard and Sean Astin. Later, she appeared in the 2004 comedy film White Chicks with Shawn and Marlon Wayans.

Ward starred as Jessica Forrester on The Bold and the Beautiful, where she appeared from 1994 to 1996. She landed that role, which was her first ever acting role, when she was 16 and still a junior in high school. Ward had guest-starring roles on USA High and the seventh season of ABC’s Home Improvement; and co-starred with Jay Thomas and Mario Lopez in the 1997 television film Killing Mr. Griffin.
