Well, we've always wondered about this. Now in a tell all new book by Maureen McCormick, who played Marsha on the "Brady Bunch," reportedly will drop bombs about the classic sitcom, including a lesbian affair between Marsha and Jan. According to the New York Post, McCormick is going to reveal that she had an affair with her TV sister, Jan, played by actress Eve Plumb in "Here's the Story." The book is scheduled to come out in 2008.
This is giant news - it's been 33 years since the show went off the air. Still, we're so titillated by any misbehavior of the Brady kids. The book promises to reveal McCormick's deepest secrets, including a battle with bulimia, cocaine and depression. Any thought of a lesbian experience on the squeaky clean image of the show, is titillating, and the idea of Marsha and Jan...even more! This show had an impact on our generation, in a way you almost can't anymore because we don't always watch the same shows now. Hell, we see gay relationships all the time. Yuck!
The alleged lesbian affair wouldn't be the first Brady scandal. Barry Williams, who played the oldest Brady kid, Greg, confessed that he dated on-screen mom Florence Henderson in his book "Growing up Brady." Henderson later called their romance "an innocent dinner and ended with a kiss on the cheek." Williams also said that he dated McCormick. Like he's always been the stud, hunh?
According to sources, McCormick's book will also discuss the tension between Robert Reed, who played dad Mike Brady and the show's creator, Sherwood Schwartz. Fifteen years ago, when Reed died of AIDS, the world learned that he was gay, which came as a huge shock to many people. Maybe she got some "after school lessons" from dear ole' Dad!This article actually appeared in the New York Post. But the question is...do you believe everything you read? Better not. This one is an internet hoax. Damn...I guess our fantasies of Marsha and Jan will have to remain just that - fantasies and purely heterosexual!
