Adrianne has been disconnected with America's Next Top Model, not being mentioned in any future episodes (except season 2) or being included in the credits; this was reportedly due to Top Model not delivering the promised prizes she won. Adrianne then wrote a nasty email to Tyra Banks in which she blamed Tyra for the show not living up to its promises. She has since publicly apologized, but continues to be shunned from the show and claim that she didn't get what she won.

My Fair Brady and marriage
In early 2005, Curry appeared on VH1's fourth season of The Surreal Life. After the season ended, Curry and fellow houseguest Christopher Knight began dating, and later moved in with each other. On September 11, 2005, VH1 began airing My Fair Brady, a show that documented their life together and paid her an estimated US$250,000. The show led her to being featured in Maxim's Hottest Women of Reality TV and ranked #100 on the Maxim Hot 100 Women of 2005. Knight proposed to Curry on the season finale of the show, which aired on November 6, 2005. The show was renewed for a second season, which focuses on the couple's wedding preparations. The second season began airing on VH1 in June 2006. The couple wed in Curry's hometown of Joliet on May 29, 2006 in a gothic-style wedding. Says Curry of the goth-themed ceremony, "I wanted to go as gothic as I could and as traditional as I could without ruffling anyone's feathers. ... I wanted to have a black dress ... but I knew it would break my grandmother's heart." Season 3 of My Fair Brady is set to air in January 2008
