Maggie has experienced much grief during her time in the series. She lost her father, Hershel (Scott Wilson), her sister Beth (Emily Kinney), and her husband, Glenn (Steven Yeun), to only name a few. She was fortunate to become pregnant before her husband’s brutal death and had a son named Hershel (Kien Michael Spiller).
The main series has concluded its story, but Maggie’s will continue in the spinoff series, The Walking Dead: Dead City, that will premiere on AMC in June 2023. This series joins the unlikely duo of Maggie and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) as they travel to Manhattan searching for her son, who has been abducted.
