'Brady Bunch' legend Barry Williams shares key to successful marriage: 'Make her your princess'
“Dancing with the Stars” contestant Barry Williams is sharing a few secrets about his lasting marriage to his wife.
The “Brady Bunch” star, 69, has been married to Tina Mahina for over six years, and they’ve been together for ten.
“I think we could just take a page right out of the Disney book, make her your princess,” Williams told Fox News Digital on the “Dancing with the Stars” red carpet.
Williams’ wife is a singer, actress and Polynesian dancer, and he spoke about what his wife thinks about him being on the popular dance competition show.
“My wife is at home practicing dance moves so that … when I come back, we can book a cruise somewhere that has a ballroom floor.”
Williams and his professional dancer partner Peta Murgatroyd performed a jazz dance to “He’s a Tramp” from “Lady and the Tramp.” He and Murgatroyd received a score of 18 points for their jazz routine on Tuesday’s special Disney100 theme night.
Since kicking off season 32 on “Dancing with the Stars,” Williams gained an immense amount of support, especially from his “Brady Bunch” co-stars.
