'On the set of porn sets, I have felt the most comfortable I have ever felt on a set, especially in an intimate situation, because I really feel there's a lot of conversation, and nobody is shy to have the conversation or backs away from it.'

OnlyFans sensation Lily Phillips - who went viral for bedding 100 men in a single night - was also in attendance, as was her rival Bonnie Blue. Maitland looked completely in her element as she posed up a storm in a plunging black leotard that showed off her cleavage. Maitland got her big break in acting playing Jessica Forrester on The Bold and The Beautiful. She went on to star in notable guest spots on hit shows like Home Improvement, before landing her biggest role as Rachel McGuire on Boy Meets World. After the series ended in 2000, Maitland made sporadic film appearances, most memorably in the 2004 comedy White Chicks. But, when her mainstream acting career dried up, she eventually made the full leap into adult films in 2019. She later detailed her journey from Hollywood to porn in her memoir, Rated X: How Porn Liberated Me from Hollywood. She later detailed her journey from Hollywood to porn in her memoir, Rated X: How Porn Liberated Me from Hollywood In her memoir the actress revealed that she was turned off to Hollywood by producers on Boy Meets World who told her to 'play dumb' so she would be more 'likable'.

When the show finally got canceled, Ward went out and bought a Rabbit vibrator which she said 'lit up my entire life.' She went to a BDSM class and during a lecture about dominance and subservience Ward writes that 'for the first time someone was talking of the merits of extremes and I was listening' Ward tried to land more acting roles but found herself typecast from Boy Meets World and told she was too old even though she was still in her 20s. Girl Meets World, a reboot of Boy Meets World, premiered in 2014 and [https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=sparked sparked] new interest in the original series but Ward resisted the idea of her character coming back as she felt it meant she would have to 'behave' offscreen. Instead she fired her agent after he called her a 'wh**e' and began appearing at Comic Cons and dressing more sexily on the red carpet with outfits from Tom Mark, who told her that her breasts, were 'made for the world to see.' Frustrated that her increasingly risqué photos were being taken down from Twitter, Ward set up a Patreon account and within three days she had $40,000 come in from people who wanted the content.

By then Ward felt like a 'changed person' and was ready to start making her own porn films. A friend introduced her to Isiah Maxwell, a prominent male porn star, and Baxter helped film the movie. Her fans had 'heart attacks' and some Boy Meets World devotees told her she had 'ruined my childhood', Ward writes. Describing one of her X-rated online sessions, the star shared: 'I can't tell you what an odd yet exciting feeling it is to know that all [these] people [are] watching you. It's intimacy like no other.' Fox News
