Chris Knight received alimony payments? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

jessatt · 08-24-2017, 09:52 AM

As a non-American, I'm trying to understand something. So apparently Chris filed for divorce from his second wife Toni Erickson and sued her for alimony. I don't get how he was able to claim alimony from her when they didn't have any children and he was a fairly successful businessman at the time. Was this just another case of greed? (God, I hope not! He always seemed like a lovely man albeit with a few demons),

I am going to have to be honest that I do not know anything about his divorce or his alimony situation. But, in any event, I would like to welcome you to this site. I am sure that you will have a lot of fun!

Thanks! I'm loving going through all the threads at the moment and learning new things about my favourite TV shows!

Well, he's an expert in divorce (divorced three times and married four times), so I'm assuming he knows what he's doing.

He has to have some way of paying for his hair transplant treatments, so why not get some moolah off another one of his exes. Apparently being a shill for Bosley Hair doesn't bring in enough.

Except for any Brady "specials" Chris Knight essentially became obscure after the origina Brady bunch l series ended. The most recent thing he did to my knowledge ( and of course I do not closely follow any information on him) was sometime a few years back (from 2017) when he was on a summertime TV show which featured celebrities doing circus stunts.

He also hosted a game show based on the board game Trivial Pursuit. I taped the episode where he had Eve Plumb (!), Barry Williams, Mike Lookinland & Susan Olsen playing for charity.
