Boy Meets World co-star Will Friedle opens up about his estrangement from Ben Savage

Will Friedle, who played Ben Savage's older brother in the 1993 sitcom, opened up about his estrangement from him on one of the episodes of the Pod Meets World podcast. The 48-year-old actor said:

"Ben is one of the most important people I’ve ever met in my life and I can’t stand the fact that he won’t speak to us. And that’s what it is: He won’t speak to us."

It's not only Will but also Ben who is not in contact with his other co-stars, Danielle Fishel and Rider Strong. Will stated that it is still a mystery to him why Ben would avoid them for so long and not even try to get in touch. Will said:

"I can show you the last three years, literally, of messages and in the middle of a conversation with Ben, he just bailed on me. Ben absolutely one day woke up and said, ‘I don’t want Will in my life,’ and never told me why."
