Former Disney Channel star Ben Savage shares big news with fans
On Tuesday, May 20, Savage took to Instagram to reveal the news alongside his wife, Tessa Angermeier.
Savage and Angermeier wed in February 2023 after they began dating in 2018, according to People.
Now, the couple is preparing to become parents.
Alongside a photo of the two of them standing among California's palm trees holding a series of sonogram images, Savage wrote, 'Arriving this fall.'
In the comment section, fans congratulated the actor turned politician.
'Baby Meets World,' one commenter wrote. 'FATHER MEETS WORLD,' another added.
'How wonderful!!! Congratulations!!!' shared another fan.
Savage often shares photos of himself and Angermeier together on social media. In July 2023, Savage celebrated their marriage with photos from the day, writing, 'Always and forever.'
Angermeier was often seen with Savage while on the campaign trail when he ran for Congress in the 2024 election.
While Savage has distanced himself from being an actor in pursuit of a career in politics, in February his former 'Boy Meets World' co-stars Will Friedle, Danielle Fishel and Rider Strong said Savage 'ghosted' them following a conversation in 2020.
Despite sharing a photo of Savage holding Fishel's newborn son in 2019, during an episode of the podcast they co-host, 'Pod Meets World,' the three actors said something changed for Savage all of a sudden.
'He disappeared — I wish I knew why, to this day,' Friedle added. 'We didn't have a fight. There's no falling out. There was no animosity. He just woke up one day, and decided: I don't want this person in my life anymore.'
'I finally sent a text saying: 'I've known you for 30 years, what's going on?' I said: 'I'm gonna call you every day until you tell me not to call you anymore.' That lasted about three weeks or a month, every single day,' Friedle continued talking about his quest for answers.

He was a movement, a voice for the people, a light in the dark. There was, and always will be, only one Fiji. His music wasn't just something we listened to. It was something we lived through. It was the soundtrack to our childhoods, our family parties, our car rides, our quiet nights, our celebrations, and our heartbreaks." This is a breaking story and will be updated.

Netflix Announces Major Wednesday Update – And 1 Exciting Hint About It's Future
If you were one of the millions of fans who helped make Wednesday the most-watched English-language Netflix show of all time, there's some very good news about the future of the series. With season two of the award-winning reimagining of The Addams Family starring Jenna Ortega coming this August, there's now even more cause for celebration as Netflix has renewed for a third season. The streamer confirmed the news on its social media this week, sharing a post of Wednesday holding a spooky crystal ball with the number three on it, along with the tagline 'bad things come in threes'. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Wednesday Netflix (@wednesdaynetflix) The caption added: 'Season 2 awakens in two weeks. Season 3 is the next omen, already in motion, already inevitable.' And not only has Wednesday been confirmed for season three, but it looks like a spinoff series is in the early stages of discussions. As revealed in a new joint interview with star Jenna and director and executive producer Tim Burton in The Hollywood Reporter, showrunner Alfred Gough said a secretive spinoff is 'something we're definitely noodling; there are other characters we can look at'. She would never leave you hanging. Wednesday has been officially renewed for Season 3. Season 2 awakens in two weeks. — Netflix (@netflix) July 23, 2025 Netflix chief content officer Bela Bajaria also hinted that 'there's a lot to explore in the Addams Family'. While further details about the future of Wednesday remain under wraps for now, showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar added in a statement (via Deadline): 'It's been a dark delight to watch Wednesday cast her spell over audiences across the globe – one deadpan quip at a time. We're beyond thrilled she'll be returning to stalk the halls of Nevermore in Season 3. 'This time, she'll unearth more of the school's sinister secrets – and descend even deeper into the Addams family crypt. Or, as Wednesday would say: 'Nothing brings a family together like a good exhumation'.' In a statement to Netflix's Tudum, Alfred did give one hint that we will be 'seeing more Addams Family members and learning more family secrets in Season 3'. The news comes after fans learned last year that Lady Gaga was reported to be in a guest role for season two. Other new additions to the season two cast include Billie Piper, Thandiwe Newton, Joanna Lumley and Steve Buscemi.
