“Dancing with the Stars” contestant Barry Williams recently shared a few secrets about his lasting marriage to his wife. The 69-year-old “Brady Bunch” star has been married to Tina Mahina for about six years, and they’ve been together for ten. Williams told Fox News Digital on the “Dancing with the Stars” red carpet, “I think we could just take a page right out of the Disney book, make her your princess.”

Williams’ wife is a Polynesian actress, singer, and dancer, and he spoke about what his wife thinks about him being on the dance competition show. He said, “My wife is at home practicing dance moves so that when I come back, we can book a cruise somewhere with 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 scored 18 points for their jazz routine on the Disney100 theme night. Since kicking off season 32 on “Dancing with the Stars,” Williams gained immense support, especially from his “Brady Bunch” co-stars. Susan Olsen, who played the youngest Brady child, Cindy, was cheering on Williams from the audience. He noted that other familiar faces from the “Brady Bunch” crew will come show support in the upcoming weeks.

Williams told Fox News Digital, “Susan also is here tonight supporting me. She’s the first Brady that’s come, although there will be more. Christopher Knight will be coming, my ‘Brady’ bro.” Williams said Olsen’s support means the world and said he valued their friendship over the years. He laughed, “We’ve been friends and continue to be friends all of our lives. I would have been disappointed if she hadn’t. But it makes me feel really good to know that she was here and she was cheering us on. Very excited, very engaged.”

“The Brady Bunch” aired for five seasons on ABC from 1969 to 1974, and its success spurred numerous spinoff titles. “Dancing with the Stars” airs live on Tuesdays at 8/7c on ABC and Disney+.
