It was rumored that Ben and Fishel, his co-star in both Boy Meets World and Girl Meets World, were enjoying a real-life romance. However, the actress insisted that they only went on one date when she was 15. “That rumor was entirely my fault”, she told Maxim magazine, “because I once said, on the “Tyra Banks Show” that Ben and I went on a date and that turned into “Danielle and Ben dated.” We went on one date, when I was about fifteen, and by the time dinner was over we realized mutually that we were more like family than lovers.” They are longtime pals. Fishel married her boyfriend of 4 years, Tim Belusko, on October 19, 2013.
Other Interests
Apart from his career in big screen films, he was also cast on television. He has acted in She Woke Up and Aliens for Breakfast. He was also cast in the TV series Wild Palms and Unexpected Tenderness, for which he later won an Ovation Award. He made his entry in theater plays at the Pasadena Playhouse with The Laughter Epidemic.
Ben took a break of three years from film and television, and then eventually, came back with few guest appearances in TV shows. In 2006, he starred in the critically acclaimed independent film Palo Alto.
Ben was a big time fan of Bruce Springsteen; he used to spend his summer following him on his US tour. There was a rumor about Ben that he died in a car accident in 2006, when we was drunk driving. It was said that he went into a coma and medication couldn’t work because he was intoxicated. This news was declared false.
Apart from his deep interest in acting, Savage has other interests as well. He is a volunteer for the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation and donates items to Rocky Stone as part of the Toy Mountain Campaign.
Personal Life
Ben is unmarried and has no children. He has stated “It's weird that [in Girl Meets World] I'm a dad with kids. It's just an interesting change because I have no children, so it's been an interesting shift. But I think I'm getting some good practice.” He hopes to be a role model and father figure for the kids both on and off set, as William Russ (Alan Matthews) was to him during his time growing up on Boy Meets World.
Ben is quite active on his Twitter account @BenSavage where he has 538,000 followers. He had announced his deal for the sequel of Boy Meets World on Twitter in 2012 before the platform was as dominant as it is today. His Instagram account also has 1.1million followers.
He was estimated to have a total net worth of $12 million as of January 18, 2017.
