Adrianne Curry and Christopher Knight met on VH1’s The Surreal Life, fell in love and got my married on VH1’s My Fair Brady and split up on their 5th anniversary. The Brady Bunch middle son and America’s Next Top Model first winner released a joint statement to Hollyscoop announcing their separation.
Actor Christopher Knight and his wife, model and television star Adrianne Curry have announced today on their five-year wedding anniversary that they are separating,†Viardo confirmed to Hollyscoop.
After starting a relationship with what seemed to be irreconcilable differences, the couple has reached a period where those differences are no longer appreciated. The decision was mutually reached after it became clear to both that some perspective was needed in order to assess their unique union. Not unlike all marriages, work must be put in.
Obvious to both Knight and Curry was that their marriage would require more effort then a garden-variety relationship. They are taking time to see if they want to continue to put in that extraordinary effort. The couple has mutually determined that they are at a place where moving forward will require a step back. They still love one another but need some distance to consider their future.
Both Knight and Curry decided to release this joint announcement today in order to preempt any potential rumors and gossip and ask that their fans and the media respect their privacy during this delicate period.â€
I really thought they were going to beat the reality show odds and make it work, but I guess they are joining a lot of the other reality show couples that ended their marriages before them.
Although their split is kind of shocking, it is not a surprise because Adrianne, who has been an open book, had Tweeted several times that marriage is hard work.
Although Adrianne’s last Tweet makes it seem like her marital pause was a sudden thing, “May 29th, 2006 I married Christopher Anton Knight. Enjoy your weekend! I certainly am!!!” Sad, maybe they will get back together.
Better yet, maybe VH1 will give them a show called How I Will Win My Brady Back?
