What is Maitland Ward’s net worth in 2022?

Many people will recognise Maitland Ward for her girl-next-door role in Boy Meets World as Rachel McGuire after joining the cast in season five.

Ward acted in the show for two seasons, until it came to an end in May 2000.

She then retired from acting in 2007, and made the move into adult content instead in 2019. She's now written a new book documenting her experiences.

How much is Maitland Ward worth?

Before Boy Meets World, Maitland also starred in The Bold And The Beautiful as Ridge Forrester’s cousin, Jessica Forrester.

She then went in to star in Killing Mr Griffin alongside Michelle Williams and Mario Lopez, but how much more lucrative is her adult career?

It’s reported that Maitland is worth a cool $2 million after switching jobs.

She began by posting nude art on Snapchat and Instagram, and documented her change from actress to adult film star in her new book.

Called Rated X: How Porn Liberated Me From Hollywood, the star explains what made her want to change career.

She said in an interview:: "I'm unapologetic about sex…but I think it's me in my truth and everything. When I was young, I was so apologetic for so many years. I will never apologize anymore.

"If I was on a show, like Boy Meets World, I could be sexy, I could wear a sheet with little feathers on it in nude pictures that I had for my boyfriend — that's fine.

"If I ever wore anything like that, or did anything suggestive like that in real life, Disney and producers and Hollywood would've come down on me."

She continued: "Especially the producer, Michael Jacobs — he was very adamant about me being chaste and the good girl.

"It was just very confusing. It hindered my sexual exploration and finding out who I was for a very long time.

“You had to be a virgin and a sex pot all at once and not embrace either one completely: You just had to be in limbo,” Ward added.

"But I think now that I'm really open with myself and I can try new things and I'm not holding back or anything — I think that's really sexy."

The bombshell has racked up 1.8 million followers on Instagram, but she hasn’t left traditional acting behind for good.

In May 2022 it was confirmed she has been cast in a forthcoming sci-fi thrilled called Just For You, directed by the Emmy-nominated Sonja O’Hara.

With new films on the horizon and the publication of her new book, Ward's bank balance is only going to get bigger.
