Who is Paige in My Life with the Walter Boys? And who's the actress playing the role? Life isn't so boring in rural Colorado, after all. Staying with the Walter boys wasn't always smooth sailing, especially for Jackie Howard. Apart from her, we are introduced to a girl named Paige in the series.
CONTENT SPOILERS: This article contains spoilers for the Netflix series, My Life with the Walter Boys, so proceed with caution.
Who is Paige in My Life with the Walter Boys?
In Ali Novak's original story, Paige doesn't exist. However, she shares similar traits to Alex Walter's supposed ex-girlfriend in the story, which is a girl named Mary Black.
Mary Black was Alex Walter's crush in the third grade. They dated for a while until they broke up one day. The same day Jackie moved in with the Walters. According to Alex, Mary dumped him for a different guy.
It wasn't until Alex came home to see his brother Cole watching a movie with Mary, which started a heated rivalry between the two Walter boys.
The only seeming difference is the name change. Other than that, Paige is pretty much Mary Black's on-screen counterpart. She may share a small role in the story, but she still pushes the plot forward.
While she doesn't directly bully Jackie for 'hoarding all the Walter boys', Jackie does coincidentally overhear Paige talking bad about her mother. How Jackie 'won the lottery' by losing her parents and being left with their wealth.
Later in the series, Cole Walter clarified that it was Paige who came on to him. He explained that he had no idea Paige was already dating Alex at the time.
Still, the fight between Cole and Alex remained unresolved, especially with Jackie in the picture.
