Trina Colette McGee was born on December 6, 1968, and is an American actress. She is particularly favored for playing the role of Angela Moore in the famous sitcom Boy Meets World. She studied at Howard University and rose to prominence in the late 1990s. She has also acted in several other sitcoms, like Martin and Family Matters. McGee is a mother of three and has been married to Marcello Thedford since 2008.

In a surprise to many, at 54, McGee announced in June 2024 that she was pregnant. Three months later, it emerged in heartbreak that she had miscarried. Nevertheless, McGee is still an advocate for women over 40 trying to become mothers.

Trina Colette McGee was initially known as Trina McGee-Davis. She had first attended Howard University in Washington D.C. for some time before initiating her acting career.

Thus, the early experiences formed the basis of her future in the performing arts.

Career Highlights

One of the title roles that got McGee noticed was when, in 1997, she took on the role of Angela Moore on Boy Meets World until the year 2000. Her character on that show was very unique in that she was in an interracial relationship with Shawn Hunter, played by Rider Strong. Representation in this sense was huge for a major network show that catered to teens specifically in that day and age.

McGee talked about how proud she was that the relationship served as such a positive example of diversity to young viewers.

Personal Life and Family

McGee has three adult children: Ramia, 33; Langston, 30; and Ezra, 26-all from her first marriage to actor Courtland Davis, which ended in 2001. She has been married for the past 16 years to Marcello Thedford.

Recent Pregnancy Journey and Miscarriage

In June 2024, McGee announced on social media that she is pregnant at age 54, which she described as a "miracle," as she had her "tubes tied" and was already a year into menopause. She posted the update from Belize, where she claimed to have become pregnant after drinking an elixir given to her by shamans. This joy, however, turned sour as she announced on September 23, 2024, in an interview with The Tamron Hall Show, that she had a miscarriage three months into the pregnancy. She explained, "I did lose the baby. It wasn't expected," showing immense gratitude even as she lost it for having been in a position to conceive at this stage in life.

After the miscarriage, McGee shared how she plunged into serious depression and even how to face every day was like a problem. She remembered her dreams about continuing the family and how painfully hard it was to face her reality-that all these dreams might just not come into being as of that part of her life.

Advocacy and Inspiration

Although McGee received criticism about choosing to get pregnant at an older age, she has since become an advocate for women over 40 who are looking to conceive. She said that many women personally shared their own stories after her pregnancy announcement, which allowed her to express the importance of open conversations about fertility and motherhood at older ages.

McGee has mentioned that she would like to adopt a young girl from Belize with Thedford and would like to give all her expertise to another raising of a child. She also expressed how having children young was a sacrifice that she may wish now that she could have fully participated in.
