‘Boy Meets World’ star William Daniels reunites with co-stars for 96th birthday

William Daniels adorably rang in his 96th birthday with his former “Boy Meets World” cast members on Friday.

The actor, who played Mr. George Feeny on the sitcom from 1993 to 2000, dined with his former co-stars in photos obtained by People.

Rider Strong, Danielle Fishel and Will Friedle were all smiles surrounding him.

Earlier that same day, the former ABC stars all met up for a panel at the Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo 2023, which ran through the weekend.

The Emmy winner’s wife of 72 years, Bonnie Bartlett Daniels, was also present at the three-day event as she played Dean Lila Bolander in Seasons 4 and 6.

Bonnie recently made headlines for disclosing the “mutual infidelity” that took place throughout her and William’s marriage in her “Middle of the Rainbow” memoir.

The actress subsequently defended not being “tied to fidelity” in a People interview.

“[When we got married], people were just loose about things,” she explained in January.

“You have to have lived during that time as an adult to see what that was like,” she continued. “The culture is simply different.”

Bonnie clarified that “it was a totally different story” when she and William moved to California from New York to start their family.

“We were here and living like a normal family and having weekends at home with our kids and doing things,” she told the outlet. “Nobody wanted anything more than that.”

The couple welcomed their first baby, William Jr., in 1961, and the little one died 24 hours after his birth.

Sons Michael and Robert arrived in 1964 and 1966, respectively.

The longtime couple are both full of “pearls of wisdom,” Friedle, 46, gushed to People in 2022.

“Talking to them is still magical,” he said, with Fishel, 41, confirming that the couple “drop … gems left and right.”

The former co-stars have publicly reunited with William multiple times over the years, most recently linking up in 2019 for Emerald City Comic Con.
