In the 2007 season of Fit Club, during a heated exchange, contestant Dustin Diamond offhandedly challenged Walden to "physical combat" after refusing to follow their diet and exercise plans. Walden did not agree to the challenge but did enter into a several minute expletive-filled rant.
He is a father of two children: one boy and one girl.
