'Brady Bunch' Star Reveals Fling With TV Sister? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Brian Damage · 09-21-2007, 10:33 AM

Wholesome former The Brady Bunch star Maureen McCormick is set to reveal the beloved 70s TV series' most shocking secret in a new book - she and her on-screen sister had a lesbian fling.

McCormick's tell-all, "Here's The Story," won't hit bookstores until 2008, but publishers are already buzzing about the big reveal.

As well as talking candidly about her well-documented eating disorder and drug problems in the book, TV's Marcia Brady will come clean about a romance she had with co-star Eve Plumb, who played her sister Jan on the hit show.

A source says, "The most explosive comments will be how the then-blonde, blue-eyed cutie developed a crush on Eve Plumb, which led to some sexual play. This book will certainly come as a shocker. While Maureen is not a lesbian, she reveals there were some sexual hijinks going on behind the scenes. It's bizarre because she played such a virginal character on the show."

When I read the title of the thread, I assumed it was Peter, Bobby or Greg who had a fling with their "tv sister", certainly didn't expect this!!!

Didn't Maureen also have a fling with Barry Williams!?

When the six "kids" went on record saying how close they all were - they weren't kidding!!!

Zoneboy · 09-21-2007, 12:09 PM

I wonder if Cindy tattled on them.

Your computer may be slow because so many guys are already preordering this book.

If I remember correctly, Eve Plumb also had a fling with Chris Knight. This was the OC of the 1970s!!

sweetdiggity · 09-21-2007, 12:16 PM

Wow, that family was closer than I thought.

TV Guy · 09-21-2007, 05:31 PM

You just know publicity-shy Eve is going to be thrilled about this "revelation." I'm betting this is some small thing that Maureen is blowing up to sell her book (similar the way Barry played up his "date" with Florence).

It is no secret that young girls tend to "play with each other" as a way of exploring their bodies, etc. but it can't be construed as "lesbianism" in any way. Young children do play "doctor" and other innocent games, whether it is with the same sex or the opposite sex.

However, I am not sure what age Maureen is referring to. Is she saying this occurred as pre-teens or when they were older?

HugeTVFan · 09-21-2007, 05:43 PM

I've heard about this before. But with this new book, Marcia is going to be revealed as a bulimic and an "experimenter" if you know what I mean...and yeah overall this book will be the real true Bradys!

Ireneparalegal · 09-21-2007, 05:47 PM

Hey, with this book coming out, she may just make a re-appearance on Dr. Phil (like she did back in May) to help sell this book.

Maybe Eve will show up with her. I'd watch.

JulieSomoski · 09-21-2007, 05:52 PM

Wow, this is definitely surprising. I can't believe Maureen would actually admit that in her book. I mean, if they were preadolescents, and just "playing with each other" as Irene put it, then what is there to tell really? I'm sure it was when they were older.

I'll bet you this book will be a top seller, right on up there with "Roseanne Barr's Guide to Sex"-

this could be true...

i think everyone has a "homosexual" experience in their life wether they are gay or not.
