There was a Lizzie McGuire family reunion and everyone looks oddly the same

Hey now, hey now.

There was a Lizzie McGuire family reunion and everyone looks oddly the same

Time has been kind to this lot.

If you didn’t race home from school to watch Lizzie McGuire on Disney Channel (or TG4 if ye just had the basic channels at home) in primary school, did you even have a childhood?

Lizzie, her pals Gordo and Miranda and her family provided us with hours of entertainment between 2001 and 2004.

Now, 14 years later, Lizzie’s on-screen mum and brother have been reunited in real life and it feels like no time has passed at all.

Jake Thomas, who played Matt, shared a photo of himself and Hallie Todd, who played mum Jo, on his Instagram over the weekend.

The pair met up to celebrate Hallie’s new film The Last Champion.

Though Jake’s now sporting a beard and is a hell of lot taller than the last time we saw him, neither of them appear to have changed much at all since the Lizzie McGuire days.

 

According to his Instagram, Jake is still acting and is also a photographer. Hallie has had TV roles in everything from Sabrina the Teenage Witch to Star Trek: The Next Generation and Murder, She Wrote.

She also wrote The Last Champion as well as starring in it.
