Trina McGee From ‘Boy Meets World’ Shares Pregnancy Announcement At 54

Decades after playing Angela Moore in the ‘90s series Boy Meets World, Trina McGee announced that she is expecting her fourth child at the “tender age” of 54. She urged her followers to wish her a safe pregnancy and delivery while noting that she would be taking a break from social media.

The news of Trina McGee’s natural conception in her mid-50s soon went viral, and fans shared their thoughts in her Instagram comments. She allegedly employed the use of organic products and elixirs to boost her fertility while trying for another child with her husband, Marcello Thedford.

Trina’s followers had mixed reactions to her reveal, and while many congratulated her, the majority appeared to be unsupportive of late pregnancy in general. They gave reasons such as the child being unable to get the best of their parents, who would be old and gray by the time they are teenagers. Another warned that the baby might be at risk of coming out “special.”

Some made light of the situation, making jokes about Trina’s unborn child arriving with a driver’s license and comparing him to the Bible’s John The Baptist, who was born to his parents in old age. A fan commended her decision to go offline, recalling how she did the same when discovering her pregnancy while turning 40.

Trina had her three grown-up children while in her twenties, during her previous marriage to Randall Courtland Davis, and during another romantic relationship. Her first daughter, Ramia, is in her early 30s, while Langston and Ezra are 29 and 25, respectively.

The actress hopes to inspire women over 40 looking to conceive, noting that they need “help and inspiration.” According to the CDC, fewer women in their 20s are having kids, while the birth rate among women above 40 has increased within the last decade.
