Maureen McCormick, who famously starred as Marcia Brady in “The Brady Bunch,” celebrated her 40th wedding anniversary this year.

The actress and her husband, Michael Cummings, say the secret to a lasting union under the Hollywood spotlight is surprisingly simple.

“You’ve got to have a sense of humor about things,” the actor recently told People at The John Ritter Foundation’s Evening from the Heart Gala in Los Angeles.

“You can’t take things too seriously,” he said. “You’ve got to let things go and just love the one you’re with. It’s a lifetime deal.”

“Celebrate the differences,” McCormick also told the outlet. She revealed they both knew “right away” they wanted to build a forever together.

It also helped that Cummings wasn’t starstruck by McCormick’s TV fame when they first met.
