In 1994, Knight appeared in a professional wrestling match for charity at the Spring Stampede in Chicago at the Rosemont Horizon against fellow 70s child actor Danny Bonaduce of "The Partridge Family." This appearance set off his reality TV career in TV shows such as "The Weakest Link" against his "Brady Bunch" co-stars during which he won $49,000 for his selected charity, Zero Population Growth. He also appeared on VH1's fourth season of "The Surreal Life" during which time he romanced model and co-star Adrianne Curry, winner of "America's Next Top Model." After the show, the two moved in together and got engaged, as documented on the 2005 VH1 series "My Fair Brady," which had cameos by several of his "Brady" co-stars. Along with Curry, he was reunited with Bonaduce on the short-lived VH1 series, "Celebrity Paranormal Project."
