Barry Williams says secret to a happy marriage is making wife 'your princess'

Barry Williams is keeping the magic alive in his marriage with a little tip from Disney.
Following his "Dancing With the Stars" performance on Tuesday, "The Brady Bunch" star, 69, shared advice on how he makes his wife Tina Mahina feel special. The couple has been married for six years and been in a relationship for 10 years.
"I think we could just take a page right out of the Disney book, make her your princess," Williams told Fox News.
The actor also discussed how his wife, a singer, actress and Polynesian dancer, has been supporting him during the dance competition show.
"My wife is at home practicing dance moves so that … when I come back, we can book a cruise somewhere that has a ballroom floor," he said.
Williams' confession comes after he did a jazz performance with dance pro Peta Murgatroyd for the show's Disney100 theme night in honor of the Mouse House's anniversary.
The actor fumbled in a mishap with Murgatroyd as they danced to "He's a Tramp" from Disney's "Lady and the Tramp," leading to a score of 18 out of 30 for the routine.
"She nearly fell on the floor by the way," "DWTS" judge Bruno Tonioli told Williams. "After that, you tried to catch up, you covered it well, but hey, it's show business, guys!"
Williams' score was a downturn from his performance last week, which earned him a 25 out of 30.

He dedicated his tango to his late on-screen mom Florence Henderson from "The Brady Bunch" for the show's Motown-themed night.
"Florence Henderson was on this show, and she was a friend, but a mentor as well and she is the one who encouraged me to do 'Dancing With the Stars,' so I'm feeling Florence here," he said after delivering a tango to the Temptations' song "Get Ready."
Henderson died in 2016 at age 82. She appeared on "DWTS" Season 11 in 2010 and was eliminated in week five.
