Christopher Knight became famous as a young man when he starred in the popular 1970s sitcom "The Brady Bunch." However, he did not remain in Hollywood for very long after the show ended.

Now, he is married to a woman who looks like his TV sister and often shows her off on social media. The couple shares a great relationship and has also talked about their relationship with their TV mother.

Although Knight was something of an overnight sensation because of his role in the cult classic "The Brady Bunch," he knew early on that his true passion was not in the entertainment industry.

By 1988, Knight had left the industry in favor of computers and high technology. He also had tremendous skills in sales and marketing because of his years in Hollywood, which provided him with people skills.

He began his high-tech career at Martec, Inc., and within eighteen months, he made history by logging the company's first $1 million sales order. He was then named Employee of the Year.

Knight then decided that he should open his own company. One company led to three, and he ended up owning Visual Software, Eskape Labs, and Kidwise Learningwear. Yet in 2001, he realized he needed a break from high tech.

The actor said he found that he had a passion for high tech and realized there was no way he could juggle going on auditions for acting and working a typical job as there was not enough time to do both.

Knight has spent many years outside Hollywood, and he and his wife enjoy one another and show off their wonderful marriage to their fans on social media.

In 2006, Knight and his third wife tied the knot. Adrianne Curry and Knight met on "The Real Life's" set for the show's fourth season in 2005. By the following year, they had cemented their bond.

Curry and Knight shared five years but announced their separation a day after their wedding anniversary. Knight cited "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for their divorce.

Yet Curry said the only reason Knight filed was that she told him to so that he would have to pay the fee. She then admitted they were not friendly with one another, and their friends were serving one another the papers.

Although every fan that commented wished them well and said they were a beautiful couple, there was an almost unanimous feeling about who Kokenes looked like. Most thought that she looked like Eve Plumb, Knight's TV sister.

His wedding was not the only time he shared his life with his wife on his social media pages. He often posts about her and lets his fans know what is happening in their lives. Knight shared a photo of him and his wife holding a pink heart on Valentine's Day this year.

He wished his wife a happy Valentine's Day. In the next photo, he and Florence Henderson, his TV mother, embraced, and he wished her a happy birthday. Fans commented, sending both the ladies good wishes.

Knight shared a photo carousel of himself and his wife in late March this year at a Bloody Mary contest. In the carousel were photos of him with other people, too, and he appeared to be having a lovely time.

Knight also shared photos of himself, his wife, and some friends in early February this year at the T.J. Martell Foundation's wine dinner. He said it was special to attend the event and thanked the host for having them.

While Knight is no stranger to showing his spouse off on social media, she shows him off too. Kokenes once shared a photo carousel of herself and Knight for his November birthday last year.

What Did Knight's TV Mom, Florence Henderson, Say About His Wife and What Is His Life Like Now?

In 2016 Knight's life was remarkable because it was the year he married the love of his life. Yet it was also the year he lost another important person to him, his TV mother, Florence Henderson.

In his tribute to her after her death, Knight said he lost a friend, a costar, and a second mother and was aware that the rest of the world felt the loss with him. He then admitted he always sought her acceptance and guidance.

He said he felt he didn't even need her words of guidance as he could watch how she lived her life to know how he should behave. He confessed:

"For a long time, she probably didn't know how much she meant to me. I didn't even know what I was doing — there was some difficulty in my own family with my own mom — and I had an alternate mom that I could use at moments when my own wasn't working for me."

Because Henderson's guidance and acceptance were so crucial to Knight, he was pleased when she welcomed Kokenes with open arms. Knight was grateful Henderson made Kokenes feel like she was part of the family.

Years after starring alongside Henderson on "The Brady Bunch," Knight and Barry Williams started a podcast called "The Real Brady Bros" to reveal what it was like to be on the series in their younger years.

Although Knight now lives a much quieter life than the one of his early adulthood under the lights and cameras on set, he is content. He and his wife share a lovely marriage, albeit missing Henderson.
