The Cast Of “The Brady Bunch” Reveal Their Best Kept Secrets
“The Brady Bunch” first aired on September 26, 1969, and won the hearts of the United States with its family drama and classic ’70s style. But it turns out; the real-life Brady’s aren’t saints.
Many cast members have made some very questionable decisions during the filming of the show that might surprise you.
Marcia Dated Her On-Screen Brother
Barry Williams, who starred as Greg Brady on the show, was close with some of his castmates, especially Maureen McCormick. Williams started a secret relationship with his on-screen sister while they were in Hawaii for the show’s filming.
They Snuck Out After Curfew
They would sneak out at night to spend some time alone and go on romantic walks to the beach to watch the stars. Even though they were not actually related in real life, Marcia still felt weird about her relationship with Barry.
Their First Kiss Felt Wrong
“It was our first kiss, and it was long, passionate, and deep. It was wonderful, too, though as we continued to kiss and press against each other so closely that we could feel each other’s body heat, a part of me – a tiny part, admittedly – said to myself, ‘Oh my God!
I’m kissing my brother. What am I doing?” she wrote.
Mike Lookinland Developed Alcoholism
Mike Lookinland, who played Bobby, developed alcoholism in his 20s. “The problem for me was, I lived my childhood in my 20s,” he said during an interview.
“You should really try to live your childhood when you’re a child because if you do it when you’re 26, it can be dangerous.”
