Like several members of the cast, she was originally cast in a minor, non-recurring role but, having impressed the showrunners, became a major part of the series until her character's death in season four. In 2018, she appeared with fellow "Battlestar" alumnus Richard Hatch  in the web series "Personal Space". She was also featured in two episodes of the podcast "Tiki Bar TV", and presented an episode of "HypaSpace". She stars alongside Lance Henriksen, Danielle Harris, Bill Moseley, and AFI's Davey Havok in the "illustrated film" series "Godkiller". Clyne hosted two seasons of Syfy's Blastr TV, covering science fiction pop culture and events. She appeared in the independent film "Lunamancer". NXIVM. Clyne is a member of NXIVM, a multi-level marketing company and cult that engaged in sex trafficking, forced labour and racketeering. It has been reported that Clyne left "Battlestar Galactica  in 2008 to focus on being a full-time member of NXIVM. Clyne has denied the claim. Clyne married American actress and NXIVM member Allison Mack in 2017. The marriage was alleged to have been a sham to evade United States immigration laws and became public knowledge the following year during legal proceedings on the conspiracy and racketeering charges related to Mack's involvement as one of the most senior leaders of NXIVM. In December 2020, Mack filed for divorce from Clyne. According to federal court records of NXIVM founder Keith Raniere's 2019 trial, Clyne was identified by a 	Nicki Clyne

Clyne was not charged as a co-conspirator on any of the federal charges that were brought against Raniere, Mack, or other inner circle members. In a letter of support for Raniere, Clyne said she had been a sexual partner of Raniere's for over a decade. Raniere had fled the United States months earlier; Clyne inadvertently revealed his location by posting an Instagram picture at a local beach. The group had been planning a "recommitment ceremony" (which would involve group  sex) prior to Raniere's arrest. In July 2020, Clyne and other NXIVM members launched an activist group "We Are As You", a movement in which a nightly dance was held outside of Metropolitan Detention Center, Brooklyn, where Raniere was being housed, to cheer up prisoners who were unable to have visitors due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The movement faced backlash from former NXIVM members for using the "#BlackLivesMatter" hashtag on its social media posts and questioning why the movement only targeted the prison where Raniere is located, and how it could serve as a possible attempt to recruit new  members. In September 2020, one month before Raniere was sentenced to 120 years in prison, Clyne spoke out in his defence in an interview with "CBS News This Morning". Footage of Clyne was used in season one of the HBO documentary series "The Vow". Clyne, Allison Mack, and other NXIVM individuals were named as defendants in a civil lawsuit filed in federal court by 80 former NXIVM members in January 2020. The lawsuit charging the NXIVM organization of being a pyramid scheme, exploitation of its recruits and conducting illegal human experiments and making it "physically and psychologically difficult, and in  some cases impossible, to leave the coercive community."
