>> I haven't decided yet.
>> Welcome back to "Access
live."
We know we love Danielle.
Remember the popular '90s sitcom
boy meets girl.
>> She's taking her experience
behind the camera, Disney's
Sidney to the max.
Good to see you.
>> Thank you.
>> Big deal.
>> It's very exciting.
It's something I've wanted to do
for a while.
Getting someone to take a chance
on you when you've been known
for one thing, an actor your
entire life, getting someone to
take that chance and take you
seriously as a director was a
big step and mark Reese man did
that for me.
It's been great.
>> When you see that old clip of
you there, what do you remember?
>> I think about a young
actor/actress, no social media,
hour great.
>> Absolutely.
We still laugh about it because
we did boy meets world seven
years.
We felt the whole time maybe we
were doing it for our
grandparents' viewing pleasure.
We had no idea who was watching.
We got recognized occasionally
when we were out and about.
We had live studio audience, but
we had no way of hearing what
they thought about it after.
It was so refreshing.
>> If we could only live that
way now.
Thinking about all the changes
you have coming your way now.
You just got married last fall
to adorable Jensen carp, and
pregnant.
>> Yes, we're having a baby.
>> Baby boy.
>> Due in July.
I'm very excited.
>> Yeah.
It's -- pregnancy is a roller
coaster of emotions.
>> It is.
Lots of hormones.
>> How were the first three
months?
>> I'm very careful how I say
this, but I've been very lucky.
>> Good.
>> I had zero morning sickness.
I did not experience any of
that.
It was a very smooth pregnancy.
I hope it continues that way for
the rest of the time.
>> Not a lot of things.
>> Exactly.
>> Thank goodness.
What about the clothes, when did
you go to maternity wear?
Are you in maternity wear?
>> I am in maternity wear.
I'm working with a company,
they're fantastic.
That's been very nice.
I went to maternity wear
probably around, I don't know,
maybe the 17 week mark, 18 week
mark.
>> This is big, your first
pregnancy.
You're dying for it.
Then when you have it, you've
had your second or your third,
you want to burn that maternity
>> I just wanted to get into it
because I wanted my normal jeans
that weren't fitting over my
belly, I don't want it sitting
under my belly.
I want something that comes up
high.
>> We want to talk about your
wedding.
John Mayer was there.
>> He's just a good friend to
us, a fantastic guy and
obviously very talent TD.
We weren't going to ask him to
just perform at the wedding like
a performer.
We were thinking like if he
would be willing to do our first
dance song, that would be
something really meaningful and
special to us.
Then we would ask him to do it.
And he was more than happy to
oblige and it was wonderful.
>> What about his speech at the
wedding?
We love his Instagram.
He is so funny and clever.
>> He really is.
>> Did he give a great toast?
I imagine it brought the house
down.
>> We had a no speech policy at
our wedding.
Nobody gets to talk.
We skipped a lot of the
traditional stuff.
We didn't do a cake cutting, we
didn't do a bouquet toss, garter
toss, we do the dances, we
didn't do any of that.
We walked ourselves down the
we took a very independent
nontraditional approach to the
wedding.
>> I like that.
>> He did get up and say
something.
He sang a little off the cuff.
I found a way around the no
speeches.
He sang something sweet.
It wasn't a planned speech.
>> I know because your husband
is executive producer of "Drop
the mic."
Hailey Baldwin hosts that.
>> Haley Bieber.
>> Did you save the date, the
whole thing for the wedding?
>> We're not invited.
I do adore her.
Every time I see her, we talk
about wedding stuff and
relationship stuff.
She's a gem.
Great to work with.
>> I hope he's all right.
Sing about young fame and
growing up with social media.
>> They have each other and
they're very good to each oochlt
>> She seems grounded.
We were talking to her uncle --
>> Billy.
>> Steven is her dad.
Billy was here last week.
He was saying how calm and
grounded she is.
>> She is.
>> What a great girl.
>> She's a rock.
>> Directing, what's your
favorite part about it?
>> Working with the kids.
It feels my way of giving back.
They're my age -- they're my
they're the age I was when I was
a child actor.
And so being able to, like,
recognize how important those
first people are in your life
when you're learning this
process and, you know, I also
hope I can kind of be an example
that you can come through this
industry for a really long time
and still be normal and still
work and have, you know, normal
relationships and a good life.
So working with them is my
favorite part.
>> What about acting for you,
will you go back to it at some
point?
>> I am open to it if it's
something that I absolutely
love.
But I'm so passionate and
obsessed with directing right
and there is still so much I
have to learn.
I'm a new director and I learn
something new every time I
direct an episode and I work
with fantastic -- the crews that
I get to work with are so great.
They've been doing it for a lot
longer than I have.
I feel like a sponge.
I get to soak up new information
every time.
And so I'm really just kind of
enjoying learning that whole
>> Love that.
>> Yes.
>> We have a little gift for
you.
>> For the baby.
>> It's very little.
>> Oh, my gosh!
