‘Brady Bunch’ Star Addresses Intimate Moments On Set Including Hookups And Fake Weddings

The Brady Bunch stars and fans recently marked the show’s 55th anniversary, and while still in a celebratory mood, Barry Williams thought to clarify a controversial issue. The 70-year-old took back his words from a previous interview, which caused a stir at the time.

There was the idea that the Brady Bunch cast gave in to youthful exuberance while filming in the ’70s, and everyone hooked up with someone as the series progressed. Barry debunked the claims, saying it was exaggerated.

Did the ‘Brady Bunch’ cast keep any inside secrets?

Barry clarified what he meant about their intimate relationships, noting that he and Maureen McCormick simply went out on a date where he gave her her first kiss, and then Bobby and Cindy did a fake wedding in Tiger’s doghouse. Anything accounts beyond these incidents were rumors, as they were not being carefree at work.

Barry recalled being Eve Plumb’s crush for years and eventually giving in to her advances, which he considers embarrassing in retrospect. He also thought the wedding of Robert Reed and Florence Henderson’s characters was special in a real-life way, so he filmed it for personal reference.

The Brady Bunch cast was like a family

The connection the Brady Bunch cast built went beyond casual hookups and sexual attraction. They built trust from being together most of the time and have remained friends many decades later. They also gave viewers a sense of involvement in their chemistry, as the series remained a cult classic long after its finale in 1974.

Christopher Knight, who joined the show as a preteen, admitted that the set was his second home because of how welcomed he felt, unlike his actual household. The Brady siblings reunited in 2018 for a special HGTV series, A Very Brady Renovation, and the bond they portrayed was just like decades ago.
