Bonaduce is currently a radio DJ at Seattle's KZOK classic rock station. He co-hosts The Danny Bonaduce & Sarah Morning Show.

In a 2017 column forThe Hollywood Reporter, Bonaduce shared that he first started working in radio when he agreed to go on tour with Partridge Family co-star David Cassidy and perform standup before Cassidy's shows.

"At every stop I did interviews with local radio stations," Bonaduce wrote. "And around the fifth radio interview, they said: 'Boy, you're really good at this. You want to stay?' They offered me more money than I'd ever seen in my life: $75,000 a year. David told me the tour would give me a career, and it did."

He's a married dad.

Bonaduce has been married three times: first to Setsuko Hattori from 1985 to 1988, then to Hillmer from 1990 to 2007, and, currently, to Amy Railsback, since 2010. He has two children with Hillmer.

Bonaduce spoke about his relationship with Railsback in an interview with Seattle Refined and said that he got sober not long into their relationship. "There's a thing that Amy and I have—and it means the world to me when I get to say it's good clean fun," he explained. "I just never had any [before], not since the days ofThe. Partridge Family."
