After graduating at Florida Atlantic University with a degree in film and theater in 2015, she worked for a year as a journalist for Talk Media covering South Florida news. In 2017, she spent four years as a ghostwriter writing about addiction and mental health for rehab and therapy blogs. Now, she divides her time writing about the subjects of both entertainment and mental health issues.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What They&#039;re Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Carly is an avid cinephile who is always looking for the next best film to watch whether it goes back to the silent film era to what&#039;s playing in theaters. Her analytical mindset enhances her writing as she gains true understanding of the characters and stories that makes a movie great enough to write about. Her passion ranges from following film scavenger hunts on Letterboxd to discover new films and creating watchlists based on the latest trailers. She enjoys the originality and freshness indie cinema brings, particularly A24 films. During her spare time, Carly loves to listen to post hardcore rock music, watch classic television sitcoms, and reads a variety of books. She also likes to challenge her writing by writing essays on various trending topics that draw her eye.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What They&#039;re Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: The latest movies hitting the &quot;Big Five&quot; film festivals (especially Venice and Sundance). Anything A24 and Wes Anderson touches. Continuously making my mark through my writing and creating watchlists. &lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                            <![CDATA[
                            <article>
                                <p>It was already mind-boggling to me when Candace Cameron Bure reminded us last year that the first episode of <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-celebrates-38-years-full-house-dave-coulier-responded"><em>Full House</em> premiered over 38 years ago</a>. We were introduced to one of the most <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/rating-sitcom-families-by-how-well-they-got-along">well-adjusted sitcom families</a> that came together to raise three little girls after the death of their mother. And oh mylanta, if you really want to feel old, Bure refreshed us that even the <em>final</em> episode of the classic sitcom is over 30 years old! </p><p>Back in 1995, <em>Full House</em> entertained its live studio audience one more time when the Tanners came together to help bring back Michelle’s memory after she'd falled off of her horse. If you’re curious how long ago that was, Candace Cameron Bure’s got an Instagram post all ready to jog your memory:</p><div class="instagram-embed"><blockquote class="instagram-media"  data-instgrm-version="6" style="width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DYsYnoqgURy/" target="_blank">A post shared by Candace Cameron Bure (@candacecbure)</a></p><p>A photo posted by  on </p></blockquote></div><p>I love how even though Bure has been busying herself <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-explains-why-she-left-hallmark-for-gaf">heading the Great American Family network</a>, she still finds time to throw back the series that started it all for her. It’s a great example of how the former Hallmark star may have had to say goodbye to <em>Full House,</em> but <em>Full House </em>will never say goodbye to her.</p><p>Not only am I feeling nostalgic seeing the promotional photos of the series, as well as the cast taking their last bow, but also Bure's throwback wardrobe. The T-shirt she’s wearing of the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/classic-tv-catchphrases-and-the-story-behind-them">classic show’s best catchphrases</a> or the “Oh Mylanta” tee of the Tanner House by Golden Gate Bridge made my day. Looking at these T-shirts is already making me hear in my head the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/retro-tv-theme-songs-that-still-slap">retro TV theme song that’s still catchy.</a></p><p>If you can believe it, the initially envisioned <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/1596451/the-real-ending-to-full-house-according-to-creator-jeff-franklin">ending of <em>Full House</em></a> was quite differently from what was aired. After creator Jeff Franklin left the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/10-Greatest-TGIF-Comedies-All-Time-Ranked-120697.html">great TGIF comedy</a> after five seasons to focus on <em>Hangin’ with Mr. Cooper, </em>writers Marc Warren and Dennis Rinsler took over. Franklin said if he had it his way with the finale, he would have had the last episode throwback to the pilot. </p><p>Fortunately, Jeff Franklin got his wish when <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/Full-House-Definitely-Coming-Back-Get-Details-71427.html">he got <em>Fuller House</em> on board with Netflix</a>. The series premiere definitely did a great job revisiting the original show’s themes of a family coming together in the wake of tragedy and ending with everyone joining in song, as the pilot did. Those wholesome, family vibes of both series will always touch the hearts of audiences as well as the cast who helped shape the series.  </p><p>It’s hard to believe that it’s been 31 years since <em>Full House</em>’s final episode aired. Through Candace Cameron Bure’s reminder, it’s a clear sign that the show’s legacy will forever live on and continue to connect generations of viewers for a lifetime. You can stream the ABC sitcom on your <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2570844/subscribing-to-hulu-the-price-whats-included-and-everything-else-to-know">Hulu subscription</a> and your <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/news/2492773/how-to-best-use-disney-tips-to-get-the-most-out-of-the-streaming-service">Disney+ subscription</a>.</p>

                                <p>As <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-seemingly-throws-shade-hallmark-work--talks-changing-up-christmas-movies">Candace Cameron Bure continues to change up her Christmas movies</a> following her exit from Hallmark and <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/hallmark-stars-who-left-for-gac-family-and-who-are-definitely-staying">move to Great American Family</a>, the <em>Full House </em>star is remaining pretty busy. And it’s not just with her acting career. Not long after <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-family-planned-surprise-her-50th-birthday-i-never-guessed-age-by-pics">celebrating her 50<sup>th</sup> birthday</a>, Bure found out she’s going to be a grandmother, and Danica McKellar, Taylor Lautner, and more shared congrats.</p><p><a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-daughter-natasha-married-photos">Bure’s daughter, Natasha, and her husband</a>, former Disney star Bradley Steven Perry, are expecting their first child together. After the happy couple shared the news on their <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DYDABVbmmhH/?img_index=1">Instagram pages</a>, Bure couldn’t help but continue the celebration on her own Instagram. She posted a photo of the parents-to-be holding respective “Dada!” and “Mama!” mugs, with Natasha showing off her baby bump, alongside the sweet caption, “I’m gonna be a Candy Gram!!!!!!”</p><div class="instagram-embed"><blockquote class="instagram-media"  data-instgrm-version="6" style="width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DYDE007j8jq/" target="_blank">A post shared by Candace Cameron Bure (@candacecbure)</a></p><p>A photo posted by  on </p></blockquote></div><p>This will be Bure’s first grandchild, and it’s definitely crazy to think that D.J. Tanner is going to be a grandmother. Of course, she is as happy as ever, and so are many famous friends. Plenty of celebrities took to the comments of Bure’s post with congratulatory messages, while her daughter and son-in-law also replied, and it’s clear that Baby Perry is already so, so loved:</p><ul><li><strong>Natasha Perry:</strong> Best Candygram ever!!!! ❤️😘😘😘</li><li><strong>Bradley Steven Perry:</strong> 😍</li><li><strong>Danica McKellar:</strong> Yippee!!!!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️</li><li><strong>Taylor Lautner:</strong> YAAASSSSSSSSSS BEST NEWS EVERRRRRRRRR 😍😍😍😍</li><li><strong>Melissa Coulier:</strong> Candygram!!! Congratulations to all of you. ❤️❤️</li><li><strong>Trina McGee: </strong>Congratulations ❤️❤️❤️❤️</li><li><strong>Marla Sokoloff: </strong>Omg! Congrats!</li></ul><p>Considering the bad news plaguing the world these days, it’s always nice to get some good news every once in a while. It’s even better when many celebrities jump on the train as well, and I love how the announcement is bringing so many of them together. Not surprisingly, though, the comments are not just filled with celebrity congratulatory messages. Plenty of fans got in on the celebration, and even brought up Bure’s <em>Full House </em>persona:</p><ul><li><strong>@saverios_authentic_pizza:</strong> Amazing! Congratulations to all! Your life will never be the same!</li><li><strong>@lanton61: </strong>Congratulations !!! Welcome to the best club..Godbless ❤️❤️❤️.. Grammy club❤️❤️❤️</li><li><strong>@rebeccaleigh423: </strong>Did anyone say Granny Tanny, yet? 🤣</li><li><strong>@jgred: </strong>Congratulations!!! Grandma DJ!!</li></ul><p>The fact that Bure has gone from <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-totally-trapped-kids-car-talk-about-sex">trapping her kids in a car to talk to them about sex</a> to now celebrating one of her babies having a baby definitely shows just how fast time can fly. </p><p>This will be her first time being a grandmother, but since <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-celebrates-son-lev-big-wedding-day-gold-dress">her oldest son, Levi, got married</a> in 2024, it’s quite possible it won’t be long before she has another grandchild. It’s unknown when Baby Perry will make his or her entrance into the world, but time will surely fly as they continue to prepare. Candy Gram will probably be on hand to help, and I can’t imagine it any other way.</p><p>It’s going to be exciting seeing Bure and her family step into this new chapter of their lives. Whether or not she’ll be bringing her grandchild to the set of her Great American Movies is unknown, but at the very least, she’ll likely be bragging to all of her co-stars and the crew when the baby is born. </p>

                                                                <dc:description><![CDATA[ &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Background&lt;/strong&gt;: Nick Venable is an Assistant Managing Editor, and the TV Editor. His humble origin story with CinemaBlend began all the way back in the pre-streaming era, circa 2009, as a freelancing DVD reviewer and TV recapper. After rising up through the ranks covering Movies, Nick leapfrogged over to the small screen to cover more and more television news and interviews, eventually taking over the section for the current era. Born in Louisiana and currently living in Texas — Who Dat Nation over America’s Team all day, all night — Nick spent several years in the hospitality industry, and also worked as a 911 operator. And if you ever happened to hear his music or read his comics/short stories, you have his sympathy. His love for his wife and daughters is almost equaled by his love of gasp-for-breath laughter and gasp-for-breath horror. A lifetime spent in the vicinity of a television screen led to his current dream job, as well as his knowledge of too many TV themes and ad jingles.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Nick is one of those people who won’t necessarily insert a Monty Python reference into every conversation, but is still mentally equipped to do so. Beyond such appreciation for surreal UK comedy, Nick also indulges in as much horror splendor as possible, from Stephen King novels to James Tynion IV comics to Freddy Krueger one-liners to all things Mike Flanagan. Throw in a dash of NFL, some 311 and Weird Al, fried crawfish poboys, bourbon, ‘90s-era pro wrestling, crossword puzzles and mystery-driven video games, and baby, you got a stew going. (Nick will insert an Arrested Development reference into every conversation, if possible.)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He&#039;s Excited About&lt;/strong&gt;: Anything Jeff Lemire, Tom King and W. Maxwell Prince think of, ever. More of Kelly Reilly’s deliriously fierce performances on Yellowstone. HBO’s The Last of Us. Clone High’s return. Colin Farrell’s Penguin being in every movie/TV show/breakfast cereal.&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>As someone who’s rocked her TV star status for 40 years, Candace Cameron Bure is no stranger to talking about her life and career, having given hundreds (or possibly thousands) of interviews during that span. Not to mention everything she divulges on her own via podcasts and social media videos. Having recently <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-family-planned-surprise-her-50th-birthday-i-never-guessed-age-by-pics">celebrated her 50th birthday in style</a>, the actress addressed the idea that she may share <em>too</em> much on occasion, at least about her husband Valeri.</p><p>The couple first met as teenagers, eventually tying the knot in 1996, and in the years that followed, the <em>Full House</em> vet has shared details about their sex life on a variety of occasions, as well as other somewhat intimate details that Val might not have wanted everyone else to be aware of. Speaking with <a href="https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/candace-cameron-bure-apologizes-so-much-to-valeri-excl/">US Weekly</a>, Bure shared that she’ll get home some days and quickly jump into apologizing for her quotes about their bedroom activities that made the rounds online. As she put it:</p><div><blockquote><p>I apologize so much. I come home and I’m like, ‘I’m sorry, I’m sorry.’ You put out certain clips to promote the podcast, but then there’s always clips that just pop up that you didn’t approve. They seem so wild because they’re out of context of a 45-minute conversation, and you’re just like, it made sense in the conversation. </p></blockquote></div><p>Though Bure seemingly didn’t lay out the details behind which clips and posts from <em>The Candace Cameron Bure Podcast</em> she was specifically talking about, there are enough examples out there to assume that they’re all technically applicable. Just in the last month, for instance, she confessed to co-host Madison Prewett Troutt that she and Valeri Bure once <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-time-she-accidentally-attended-sex-party">went to a party that was “an S&M-like sex thing</a> that was so dark and demonic,” and said she saw acts there that she’d never witnessed before. </p><p>When it comes to instances like that, Bure says she’ll think about it after the fact and wonder why all those thoughts came out of her mouth in the first place. As she put it:</p><div><blockquote><p>But why did I share that? Why did I share that? Because it just became a headline, and so I just apologize all the time, and he’s very forgiving.</p></blockquote></div><p>To be fair, it's not as if all of Candace Cameron Bure's anecdotes are about sex, or about her and Val's sex life. Even the ones that are tend to be more on the positive or neutral side, so at least she doesn't have to apologize for cracking jokes about his naughty bits or anything. Granted, privacy means different things to different people. </p><p>That said, the Great American Family actress did speak previously about how it took the couple a while to find shared optimal joy in the bedroom, stemming in part from a Christian upbringing and feelings of guilt and shame. As well, she's talked about how her and Val's sex life and general relationship were in dire straits around the time when the pandemic had everyone hunkered down indoors, and Bure said it was their son Lev who stepped up and preached marriage advice about prioritizing the relationship, and it worked. </p><p>A lot of the public's interest (or otherwise) surrounding Candace and Valeri Bure's sexcapades went into high gear back in 2020 when she <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2554493/candace-cameron-bure-responded-after-followers-got-mad-about-husband-touching-her-boob-hallmark">posted a pic with Val where he's grabbing her boob</a>, which sparked enough of a social media backlash that <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2559145/candace-cameron-bure-addresses-the-haters-mad-about-photo-of-her-husband-touching-her-boob">she addressed the hate in full weeks later</a>. (It was enough of a moment to spark a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/after-candace-cameron-bures-boob-grab-controversy-ariel-winter-boob-grab-moment">parody pic from Ariel Winters four years later</a>.)</p><p>Previously, Bure has spoken out about <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-totally-trapped-kids-car-talk-about-sex">trapping her kids in a car to have THE sex talk</a>, so it makes sense that she also apologizes to her three children on the occasion when her quotes about them go viral. </p><p>One can only hope that Bure has to apologize soon for slipping up and sharing all the secret info about her upcoming projects for Great American Family that'll be hitting the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2026-tv-premiere-date-schedule-network-streaming-series">2026 TV schedule</a> later on in the year, whether it's Chrismas movies or cozy mysteries. </p>

She started freelancing for the site in 2020 and officially came on board in 2021. Her job entails writing news stories and TV reactions from some of her favorite prime-time shows like Grey&#039;s Anatomy and The Bachelor. She graduated from Louisiana Tech University with a degree in Journalism and worked in the newspaper industry for almost two decades in multiple roles including Sports Editor, Page Designer and Online Editor.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Heidi grew up in the 1990s, and her tastes strongly reflect that. She can (and does) quote Friends constantly, enjoys a good West Wing binge, thinks Can&#039;t Hardly Wait was the most influential movie of her life and finds solace in 311 concerts. On Sundays during football season, she can be found cheering on the New Orleans Saints with her husband and two daughters. Who Dat! She loves to read but usually settles for a pop culture podcast, and thinks the best weekends are spent cooking and playing cards with friends and family, preferably with some UFC fights or other sporting event on TV.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Football season, Pumpkin Spice Lattes and everything related to fall and cooler weather.

                                <p>This weekend was quite the special one for Candace Cameron Bure, as not only did her family celebrate Easter, but she welcomed a big milestone birthday. The actress turned the big 5-0 on April 6, and her family was apparently ready with a surprise to make sure her day was as special as could be. Meanwhile, Bure posted some cute pics to social media, and I’m not quite sure I believe these photos are of a 50-year-old.</p><p>Look, you don’t have to tell us that the <em>Full House</em> star still looks as gorgeous as ever, no matter her age. We’ve seen how she can light up a room in a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/forget-naked-dress-candace-cameron-bure-made-sheer-style-classy">classy sheer dress</a> and <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-celebrates-son-lev-big-wedding-day-gold-dress">dazzle in gold at her son’s wedding</a>. Still, I honestly think Candace Cameron Bure could pull off saying she was half her actual age in these <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DWzZ8KQEmmp/?img_index=1">Instagram photos</a>:</p><div class="instagram-embed"><blockquote class="instagram-media"  data-instgrm-version="6" style="width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DWzZ8KQEmmp/" target="_blank">A post shared by Candace Cameron Bure (@candacecbure)</a></p><p>A photo posted by  on </p></blockquote></div><p>You guys, that is the face of a woman who’s not afraid of entering a new decade. In fact, she confirmed that she’s “excited” about it as she discussed how she planned to celebrate the big day. CCB told <a href="https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/how-candace-cameron-bure-is-celebrating-her-50th-birthday/">US Weekly</a>:</p><div><blockquote><p>I mean, [I’m] feeling excited. It’s a little weird to turn 50, but I’m excited. I have, I think, a surprise on my birthday. On Monday, my husband’s planning something for me, and all the kids will be here. But I have no idea what we’re doing.</p></blockquote></div><p>I trust that her husband Val knows what he’s doing at this point — as long as he doesn’t <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-time-she-accidentally-attended-sex-party">accidentally take her to a sex party</a> again.</p><p>She admitted she had no idea what her family had planned, other than a meal at the Mediterranean-inspired restaurant Casaléna, but I’m sure that having her three kids — Natasha, 27, Lev, 26, and Maks, 24 — all there to spend the day with her is what matters the most. </p><p>However, I can totally see Candace Cameron Bure being the kind of person who has a bit of trouble relinquishing control, and she admitted:</p><div><blockquote><p>I don’t mind surprises. It’s so funny because there were parts of me that were like, ‘Yeah, plan whatever you guys want.’ And then my brain kicks in and I’m like, ‘Well, let me see what you’re doing. Let me put my fingerprint on that one.’</p></blockquote></div><p>That is so relatable.</p><p>Plenty of celebs hit up the Great American Family star’s Instagram post, not asking her to share the secret location of the fountain of youth that she’s obviously stumbled upon, but to wish her a happy birthday. That included an A+ <em>Full House</em> reference from her former co-star Scott Weinger:</p><div><blockquote><p>Happy Birthday Deej! ❤️🎂🎉🥳🥳🎈😍🎊🎁</p></blockquote></div><p>Other comments included:</p><ul><li><strong>Lacey Chabert: </strong>Happy Birthday!!!! 💜</li><li><strong>Mario Lopez: </strong>HBD Candace!</li><li><strong>Jonathan Roumie: </strong>Happy Birthday [Candace]!! 🥳🎊🎉🙌🏽🔥</li><li><strong>Melissa Joan Hart: </strong>🎉🎉🎉🎉Mid century club here we come!! 🎈🎈🎈</li><li><strong>Marla Sokoloff: </strong>Happy happy birthday hot mama!🔥🔥</li><li><strong>Tay Lautner: </strong>Happy birthday!!!!😍😍😍</li><li><strong>Jill Wagner: </strong>50 beautiful years ! Happy birthday ❤️</li><li><strong>Melissa Coulier: </strong>Happy Birthday Candy-Baby!! Hotter, wiser, fully in your power!! 50 never looked so effortless. Always inspired and in awe by you. May this year be the brightest one yet!! Love you. ❤️💫</li></ul><p>I love seeing so many ‘90s TV stars, GAF and Hallmark actors, and her <em>Full House</em> family showing up for her milestone birthday. </p><p>Keep an eye out for big things from Candace Cameron Bure this holiday season, as she works on <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-seemingly-throws-shade-hallmark-work--talks-changing-up-christmas-movies">changing up the typical Christmas movie formula</a>. This year’s Great American Family offerings also include a sequel that offered her an <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/how-candace-cameron-bure-latest-home-sweet-christmas-movie-allow-her-film-in-europe">acting opportunity she’s never had</a> before.</p>

                                <p>Candace Cameron Bure used to be quite the mainstay on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2568036/upcoming-hallmark-movies-full-list-of-new-titles-and-premiere-dates">Hallmark movie schedule</a>, appearing in dozens of heartwarming Christmas romances and <em>Aurora Teagarden Mysteries</em> before <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/hallmark-stars-who-left-for-gac-family-and-who-are-definitely-staying">jumping ship to Great American Family</a> in hopes of <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/making-family-faith-centered-movies-candace-cameron-bure-gaf-films-leaving-hallmark">producing more faith-centered content</a>. Now, years later, it seems like the actress may have just thrown some shade at her previous body of work, as she discussed how she’s “evolving” her craft for this year’s slate of holiday films.</p><p><a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2496546/things-hallmark-movies-have-taught-me-about-life">If Hallmark has taught us anything</a>, it’s that it’s never too early to start planning for the holidays, and just like <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/theme-parks/stoked-lacey-chabert-hallmark-team-up-disney-world-christmas-movie-title-long-holiday-ever-after">Lacey Chabert already has one Disney-themed flick</a> in the bag for this year’s Countdown to Christmas, Candace Cameron Bure announced her latest upcoming project, <em>One More Christmas</em>, which will hit the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2026-tv-premiere-date-schedule-network-streaming-series">2026 TV schedule</a> on GAF later this year. She’s not looking to do the same old, same old, either, as she told <a href="https://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/news/candace-cameron-bure-announces-new-2026-christmas-movie/">US Weekly</a>:</p><div><blockquote><p>Christmas movies are evolving for me. They’re not just about a big-city girl meeting a small-town boyfriend anymore. With [my production company] CandyRock Entertainment, we’re passionate about creating stories that carry meaning, purpose, and hope — stories that remind people it’s never too late for redemption, healing, and love.</p></blockquote></div><p>I actually love the pivot, but also ... Shots fired! It is a big trope of TV movies — particularly those of the Hallmark oeuvre — that the big-city career woman reunites with an old boyfriend while home for the holidays and ends up realizing that everything she ever wanted has been right there all along. It’s something that <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/6-things-you-shouldnt-overthink-about-hallmark-christmas-movies">fans should try not to overthink</a> and that critics rail on when <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/lacey-chabert-pushes-back-on-the-criticism-that-hallmark-movies-are-too-formulaic">accusing Hallmark of being too formulaic</a>.</p><p>Candace Cameron Bure not only seems aware of the tried-and-true plotline but intent on avoiding it. Since her 2022 exit, the <em>Full House</em> alum has said <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-about-hallmark-exit-and-what-she-loves-about-gaf">leaving Hallmark wasn’t an easy decision</a>. However, as someone who gets <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/biggest-frustration-candace-cameron-bure-has-christian-characters-tv">“frustrated” with the way Christians are portrayed in movies</a>, she had to accept the calling to change that at Great American Family — including with her latest movie announcement, as she explained:</p><div><blockquote><p>One More Christmas is about marriage, family, and the beauty of second chances. It asks the question: what if you could have a do-over — but this time with maturity, faith, and a deeper understanding of who you are and who God is at the center of it all?</p></blockquote></div><p>The movie, which co-stars Jonathan Scarfe, is currently in production for the 2026 Great American Christmas lineup. </p><p>It’s a good thing <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/does-candace-cameron-bure-get-tired-filming-christmas-movies-weird-my-job-christmas-24-7">Candace Cameron Bure doesn’t get tired of filming Christmas movies</a>, because <em>One More Christmas</em> isn’t the only project we’ll see from her this holiday season. It was previously announced that she and Cameron Mathison will team up for <em>A Sweet Christmas Anniversary</em> — the third in their <em>Home Sweet Christmas</em> series. The movie was <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/how-candace-cameron-bure-latest-home-sweet-christmas-movie-allow-her-film-in-europe">filmed on location in Europe</a>, which was a first for the actress.</p><p>Whether or not Candace Cameron Bure intended to throw shade at Hallmark is up for debate, but either way, it seems pretty clear that she wants to sidestep at least some of the clichéd storylines we’re bound to see in the upcoming holiday season.</p>

                                <p>Candace Cameron Bure is more than keen to talk about her career, including her famed stints on the sitcom <em>Full House</em> and its spinoff, <em>Fuller House</em>. That aside, though, she’s also been quite candid about aspects of her personal life, including <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-son-helped-her-and-husband-val-prioritize-marriage">her marriage to husband Valeri Bure</a> as well as <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-asked-what-faith-teaching-hollywood-god-body-positivity">her personal faith</a>. On that note, Bure just recently told a particularly wild anecdote involving herself and her hubby. Apparently, there was one occasion on which the Bures accidentally ended up attending a sex party. </p><p>That story came up during a recent episode of <em>The Candace Cameron Bure Podcast</em>, during which the titular host and co-host Madison Prewett Troutt shared stories from their pasts. A major theme of this particular installment was the idea of people being formed by the individuals they surround themselves with. Bure acknowledged that she’d experienced “shameful” moments in life, some of which were prompted by her thinking, “Oh, this person’s a friend and I'm going to be cool and do this.” That’s when she recalled the party:</p><div><blockquote><p>I went to a party once with Val ‘cause we were married, and it ended up being this underground party that was an S&M-like sex thing that was so dark and demonic. And we walked in, and my eyeballs were popping out of my head because I saw stuff I had never seen before in my life. And I’m looking at Val, going like, ‘How are we here? What is happening?’</p></blockquote></div><p>Needless to say, it sounds like the Bures were more than taken aback when they arrived at the event. As Candace Cameron went on to recall during the podcast (posted to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEomteHrm-4">YouTube</a>), she and her husband made a “hard u-turn” and “walked right out of there.” The <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/former-child-stars-who-are-still-acting-today">former child star</a> then shared additional thoughts on the vibes she felt while at the party, and she didn’t mince words: </p><div><blockquote><p>It just was, like, so slimy and weird. And I was like, ‘We're going to pause before we ever say yes to going out with that friend again." We just had no idea what we were walking into, and it was so disgusting and gross.</p></blockquote></div><div  class="fancy-box"><div class="fancy_box-title">More on Candace Cameron Bure</div><div class="fancy_box_body"><figure class="van-image-figure "  ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' ><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:56.25%;"><img id="cuVGndfirHq7w3EKHk3H4n" name="candace cameron bure 2025" caption="" alt="candace cameron bure on the stay true podcast" src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/cuVGndfirHq7w3EKHk3H4n.png" mos="" link="" align="" fullscreen="" width="" height="" attribution="" endorsement="" class="pinterest-pin-exclude"></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=""><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: Stay True Podcast)</span></figcaption></figure><p class="fancy-box__body-text"><a data-analytics-id="inline-link" href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/someone-asked-candace-cameron-bure-watching-demonic-scary-movies-she-did-not-hold-back">‘That’s A Portal.’ Someone Asked Candace Cameron Bure About Watching ‘Demonic’ Scary Movies, And She Did Not Hold Back</a></p></div></div><p>As evidenced by stories that have surfaced in recent years, sex parties apparently aren’t uncommon, especially within the celebrity sphere. Most notably, much has been said about the sex parties or “Freak-Offs” held by rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs, which <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/how-long-did-diddy-parties-last-boris-becker-drops-wild-claims">could apparently last days at a time</a>. Of course, to be clear, Bure’s anecdote has no direct connection to Combs (who’s currently serving time in prison). </p><p>What this latest story from Candace Cameron Bure does, if anything, is further exemplify how willing she is to open up and be candid with her fans. That includes sharing the less glamorous parts of her life, like <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-gets-candid-about-hateful-messages-she-gets-about-aging-her-looks-on-daily-basis">receiving hate-filled messages on social media</a>. Bure also doesn’t hesitate to share the more awkward intimate moments she shares with her family, such as <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-totally-trapped-kids-car-talk-about-sex">trapping her (now-grown) kids in a car</a> at one point to have a sex talk. </p><p>It’s been said that over time, we live and learn, and it sounds like the Bures definitely did the latter after unwittingly attending that sex party. As for how she operates now, Bure’s comments in the podcast episode suggest that she allows her better judgement and faith to help guide her decisions.</p>

Of course, even the best of families can be messy. Jodies Sweetin and Candace Cameron Bure, for example, have <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/jodie-sweetin-candid-being-very-different-from-candace-cameron-bure-faith-based-backlash"><u>had some public clashes</u></a>. Or, there’s the time the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/We-Finally-Know-Why-Olsen-Twins-Aren-t-Fuller-House-120657.html"><u>Olsen twins declined to participate</u></a> in the revival show. Sweetin was asked about this and more in a recent interview, and her take on the entire matter is quite a bit refreshing.</p><h2 id="when-it-comes-to-the-olsens-sweetin-feels-a-lot-of-empathy">When It Comes To The Olsens, Sweetin Feels A Lot Of Empathy</h2><p>Jodie Sweetin spent her formative years on the set of <em>Full House</em>, but she told Bob The Drag Queen in a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfxWeSw0NnM"><u>recent interview</u></a> the girls were much younger when they kicked off their TV careers. What followed was <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/the-olsen-twins-just-turned-37-and-yes-their-net-worth-is-way-greater-than-yours">a whirlwind of fame and money</a>, but looking from the outside, she personally feels Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen were overworked. </p><div><blockquote><p>I saw how hard they were worked in order to pull all that [success] off, and I didn’t envy it at all. No, I did not. I always actually felt really bad that they had to do all that because they really lost out on having, like, a childhood.</p></blockquote></div><p>They didn’t have the same choice to be in the industry she feels she had as a younger person. On her end, the struggles in her career actually came as her years as a child actor were ending. She wasn’t sure what she would do as an adult, but she also didn’t have the millions of eyeballs following her every single moment in public her onscreen sisters did. </p><div><blockquote><p> I can’t imagine you know, the two of them, the attention that they get. The three of us were really close as kids. I was much closer with them. They came to my house on weekends. I took Mary-Kate and Ashley horseback riding for the first time. Now Mary-Kate owns horses and stuff. We would go to Disneyland together… we were really close.  I wish nothing but the best for them, but I can’t imagine all the bs that they’ve had to deal with over the years.  </p></blockquote></div><p>She’s not really surprised Mary-Kate and Ashley ultimately left the industry. (Mostly, Mary-Kate had a few roles as an adult.) Time passed and the cast grew apart. Sweetin opened up about finally <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/bob-sagets-wife-says-shes-trying-not-to-feel-robbed-of-time-after-well-attended-funeral"><u>seeing the Olsens at Bob Saget’s funeral in 2022</u></a>, and how she feels about their relationship changing over time.  </p><div><blockquote><p>You know when we saw Mary-Kate and Ashley after Bob had passed that was the first time that we’d really seen each other or been together for years. They were in NY and in Europe. Also, I have to think about it like, for me, I did the show from age 5-13. That is your childhood, your memorable years. I don’t really have much memories before the show.</p></blockquote></div><p>Everyone reunited in <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/bob-sagets-pals-had-a-punk-rock-shiva-after-his-fancy-funeral-with-dave-chapelle-john-mayer-what-looks-to-be-the-olsen-twins-and-more">2022 at Bob Saget's "punk rock shiva," </a>which also featured appearances from fellow comedians like Dave Chappelle and Jeff Ross, his pal John Mayer, and the dudes in the <em>Full House</em> cast. Since then, they've gone their separate ways again. Unlike the older gang, Sweetin thinks the age gap is one of the reasons the girls separated themselves from the rest of the <em>Full House</em> cast, who really have supported one another publicly and came together for the revival, which is still available to watch with a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/netflix-subscription-the-plans-the-price-and-whats-included"><u>Netflix subscription</u></a>. </p><div><blockquote><p>They started as babies and were eight when they ended. While we were all close then, do you still talk to the people from when you were seven years old? they’re just in different years now. I get it. They’re doing their own thing. It was never like we hated each other or anything like that.</p></blockquote></div><p>Now, just because Sweetin doesn’t feel any ill will towards the twins doesn’t mean there aren’t occasionally differences of opinion and disagreements within the cast. Candace <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/hallmark-stars-who-left-for-gac-family-and-who-are-definitely-staying"><u>Cameron Bure’s exit from Hallmark </u></a>and <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/ex-hallmark-star-hilarie-burton-went-off-on-candace-cameron-bure-after-gaf-star-said-new-movies-will-feature-traditional-marriages"><u>comments about “traditional marriage</u></a>” did inspire Sweetin to speak out against her co-star a while back. They obviously have appeared together at events since, but sometimes a <em>full</em> house can lead to conflict. </p><figure class="van-image-figure  inline-layout" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style="max-width:1280px;"><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:56.25%;"><img id="zmW7Gr5gixjarxNC5dNc9c" name="GettyImages-1248942050" alt="Dave Coulier, Candace Cameron Bure, Andrea Barber and Jodie Sweetin Reunite at '90s Con.

Back in 2022, Candace posted her comments about “traditional marriage” and <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/full-house-jodie-sweetin-never-actually-feuding-candace-cameron-bure-traditional-marriage-beliefs-very-different-worlds"><u>Sweetin followed up with her own comments </u></a>about being an LGBTQ ally. <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2466150/fuller-house-is-ending-but-its-not-all-bad-news"><u><em>Fuller House</em></u><u> had ended its run by that point</u></a>, and both had moved on to new projects, but <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/see-full-houses-candace-cameron-bure-jodie-sweetin-reunite-90s-con-reported-feud"><u>they managed to reunite at ‘90s Con</u></a> some months later. </p><p>The actress has a very pragmatic approach to her relationship with her former co-star, noting she knows who she is as a person. But she also knows who Bure is.</p><div><blockquote><p>Candace does her thing and, you know, we sit on very opposite sides of things and I’m just, kind of, a loud, outspoken bitch about a lot of things, and that’s not going to stop me. And if that ain’t you, that ain’t you.</p></blockquote></div><p>For her part, Bure has <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/after-candace-cameron-bures-alleged-beef-with-jodie-sweetin-she-and-full-house-co-star-discuss-how-cast-tends-to-bicker-like-a-family">said it's all "love" with her <em>Full</em> and <em>Fuller House</em> family</a>. She knows from the outside, it can seem like they "bicker," but she seems grateful to still be a part of the group and show that set the tone of her career. While the Olsens don't always participate, it seems like it's all love from Sweetin there, too. </p>

She started freelancing for the site in 2020 and officially came on board in 2021. Her job entails writing news stories and TV reactions from some of her favorite prime-time shows like Grey&#039;s Anatomy and The Bachelor. She graduated from Louisiana Tech University with a degree in Journalism and worked in the newspaper industry for almost two decades in multiple roles including Sports Editor, Page Designer and Online Editor.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Heidi grew up in the 1990s, and her tastes strongly reflect that. She can (and does) quote Friends constantly, enjoys a good West Wing binge, thinks Can&#039;t Hardly Wait was the most influential movie of her life and finds solace in 311 concerts. On Sundays during football season, she can be found cheering on the New Orleans Saints with her husband and two daughters. Who Dat! She loves to read but usually settles for a pop culture podcast, and thinks the best weekends are spent cooking and playing cards with friends and family, preferably with some UFC fights or other sporting event on TV.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Football season, Pumpkin Spice Lattes and everything related to fall and cooler weather. The Game of Roses podcast and all things The Bachelor, and new episodes of Grey&#039;s Anatomy, Love Is Blind, The Voice, OMITB and more.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>There are countless wonderful and amusing things about being a parent — like finding out your <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/i-watched-30-movies-teen-summer-2024-airplane-favorite-madame-web-superbad-tarot-twisters">teen actually has great taste in movies</a> or wondering how your <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/my-daughter-noticed-reference-to-the-shining-zootopia-2-should-i-be-concerned">9-year-old learned about <em>The Shining</em></a>. Other things, like the inevitable birds and bees talk, aren’t so fun. No worries, though, because Candace Cameron Bure is here to help. Just like <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/im-rewatching-full-house-for-the-first-time-as-a-parent-and-its-a-whole-other-experience"><em>Full House</em> provided so many of us with life lessons</a> growing up, the DJ Tanner portrayer opened up about trapping her kids in a car for that big S-E-X talk.</p><p>Candace Cameron Bure’s kids are all in their 20s now — with daughter <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-daughter-natasha-married-photos">Natasha getting married</a> last year and <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-celebrates-son-lev-big-wedding-day-gold-dress">oldest son Lev’s wedding</a> in 2024 — so it’s definitely been a while since the Great American Family actress had to give “the talk,” but it sounds like she had a solid strategy back in the day. She said on <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-candace-cameron-bure-podcast/id1649600581"><em>The Candace Cameron Bure Podcast</em></a>: </p><div><blockquote><p>I had very open conversations with my kids when they got older about sex, to the point that I grossed them out all the time. But I was like, they were trapped in a car and I’m like, ‘Guess what we’re gonna talk about!’ </p></blockquote></div><p>Honestly, this is kind of the best idea. Everybody’s strapped in and not able to go anywhere, and you’re keeping your eyes on the road, so nobody has to make any awkward eye contact. </p><p>Candace Cameron Bure admits it’s not the easiest conversation to have, but she says she was very careful to hide any discomfort she felt, saying:</p><div><blockquote><p>I kind of loved talking about that with them, because I wanted them to know that it was safe, even though it’s not that I was super comfortable talking about it, but I made it as fun as possible and like I was comfortable talking about it, just so there would be no embarrassment or shame in those conversations. </p></blockquote></div><p>There’s a large contingency of Candace Cameron Bure’s fans who are Christians, and some haven’t always loved hearing her talking openly about sex or seeing her <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2559145/candace-cameron-bure-addresses-the-haters-mad-about-photo-of-her-husband-touching-her-boob">husband getting touchy-feely</a> with her in photos. But she insists that we shouldn’t be ashamed of our bodies or of sex within marriage, and we need to educate our children about that. She continued:</p><div><blockquote><p>I think shame can start very much with that, if we’re not really told about our bodies and how they function, how they work, what they’re made for, how God views them. When there’s a misunderstanding there, that can very much develop our view of shame and when we feel that way. </p></blockquote></div><p>I really love her perspective here, and it’s true that <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/my-kids-i-watched-too-much-full-house-but-made-me-look-one-character-differently">rewatching <em>Full House</em> episodes with our kids</a> might be a way more fun use of our free time, but the sex talk isn’t something we can or should avoid. So why not make a captive audience of your age-appropriate kiddos by strapping them in the car, setting your eyes straight ahead on the road and diving into the birds and the bees?</p>

She started freelancing for the site in 2020 and officially came on board in 2021. Her job entails writing news stories and TV reactions from some of her favorite prime-time shows like Grey&#039;s Anatomy and The Bachelor. She graduated from Louisiana Tech University with a degree in Journalism and worked in the newspaper industry for almost two decades in multiple roles including Sports Editor, Page Designer and Online Editor.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Heidi grew up in the 1990s, and her tastes strongly reflect that. She can (and does) quote Friends constantly, enjoys a good West Wing binge, thinks Can&#039;t Hardly Wait was the most influential movie of her life and finds solace in 311 concerts. On Sundays during football season, she can be found cheering on the New Orleans Saints with her husband and two daughters. Who Dat! She loves to read but usually settles for a pop culture podcast, and thinks the best weekends are spent cooking and playing cards with friends and family, preferably with some UFC fights or other sporting event on TV.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Football season, Pumpkin Spice Lattes and everything related to fall and cooler weather. The Game of Roses podcast and all things The Bachelor, and new episodes of Grey&#039;s Anatomy, Love Is Blind, The Voice, OMITB and more.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>It’s no secret that for Candace Cameron Bure, faith comes first. It’s something that’s helped to inspire career decisions, like her <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-about-hallmark-exit-and-what-she-loves-about-gaf">move to Great American Family from Hallmark</a>, and one that she admits <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-asked-what-faith-teaching-hollywood-god-body-positivity">isn’t always easy in the entertainment industry</a>. In fact, it seems even she struggled a bit to stay grounded back when she competed on <em>Dancing with the Stars</em>, and she opened up about one thing that helped her through it.</p><p>On the <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reels/DT-cK1SErUi/">latest episode of <em>The Candace Cameron Bure</em> podcast</a>, the <em>Full House</em> veteran continued her series with <em>The Bachelor</em> star Madison Prewett, where they bonded over their reality TV experiences. While trying to win love on <em>The Bachelor</em> is admittedly different from trying to win a dance show, they were in agreement about the competitive instinct kicking in. Prewett referenced a Bible verse that seemed especially poignant, saying:</p><div><blockquote><p>Galatians 1:10 has been a continual convicting verse for me, because it says, ‘Are you really trying to win the approval of people? Because if you’re trying to win the approval of people, you are not a servant of Christ.’ And I’m like, ‘Ouch! Ouch, because I want both!’</p></blockquote></div><p>Candace Cameron Bure agreed wholeheartedly, because of course it’s natural to want people to like you and to be successful at whatever it is you’re trying to do. I can definitely see how not caring about the opinion and acceptance of others would be difficult; it seems like reality TV requires the exact opposite. </p><p>The same Bible verse was apparently also a source of comfort for Candace Cameron Bure during Season 18 of <em>DWTS</em> (when she, incidentally, came in third place with pro partner and <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/traitors-just-finalized-its-season-4-cast-and-some-fans-are-very-mad-about-one-controversial-choice"><em>Traitors</em> Season 4 cast member</a> Mark Ballas). Bure said:</p><div><blockquote><p>I felt this verse very much when I was on Dancing with the Stars. … I kept saying that verse to myself too. Because there is a sense where you’re like, ‘Well I actually am trying to win over an audience and please an audience.’ However, that’s not my real audience. My audience is an audience of one. It’s God.</p></blockquote></div><p>The actress didn’t mention it in this conversation, but she more recently competed on <em>The Masked Singer</em> after being <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-how-bob-saget-impacted-decision-join-the-masked-singer">inspired by her <em>Full House</em> co-star Bob Saget’s appearance</a>. She was eliminated after her first performance and has admitted that was a blow to her ego. I can only imagine this verse came up around that time, too.</p><p>This discussion about how their reality TV experiences challenged their focus on faith is just the latest topic tackled by Candace Cameron Bure and Madison Prewett. They’ve previously shared strong feelings about <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/biggest-frustration-candace-cameron-bure-has-christian-characters-tv">how Christians are portrayed in the media</a>, and Prewett has spoken a lot about the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/bachelor-contestant-says-she-lost-20-lbs-vying-for-affection-red-rose-peter-weber-madison-prewett">trauma she experienced on <em>The Bachelor</em></a>, including the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/madison-prewett-said-bachelor-producers-called-themselves-witches">witchy nickname producers gave themselves</a>.</p><p>While trying to stay grounded while competing on television may have been challenging, that’s probably nothing in comparison to the criticism they’ve faced on social media — and in Madison Prewett’s case, from <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2491744/bachelor-spoilers-why-peter-webers-live-finale-showdown-was-scary-to-abc-execs">Peter Weber’s mother</a>. For that, their faith in God has 100% helped them <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/why-candace-cameron-bure-doesnt-fight-back-comments-when-people-are-negative-online">not feel the need to fight back in the comments</a>.</p><p>I'm looking forward to seeing what conversations continue to pop up for these two TV stars.</p>

He has previously held positions as a Staff Writer and Games Editor, but has more recently transformed his true passion into his job as the head of the site&#039;s Theme Park section. He has previously done freelance work for various gaming and technology sites. Prior to starting his second career as a writer he worked for 12 years in sales for various companies within the consumer electronics industry.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: As the head of CinemaBlend&#039;s Theme Park Beat Dirk is a theme/amusement park junkie. Time not spent in a park is largely spent wishing he was in a park. He prefers Disneyland Resort to Walt Disney World in nearly all circumstances. He loves a good third-wave coffee house or a glass of red wine. He would enjoy video games if he ever had time to play them anymore. The Carthay Circle Lounge is his happy place.&lt;/p&gt;

                                <p>It’s hard to believe it’s been four years since <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/full-house-star-bob-saget-is-dead-at-65">we lost the great comedian Bob Saget</a>. The former stand-up comic and star of <em>Full House</em> died in a tragic accident four years ago today, and several of his co-stars, Candace Cameron Bure, John Stamos and Dave Coulier, took a moment to remember him on this unfortunate anniversary.</p><p>Bure took to <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DTTQVqWAbp-/?img_index=1">Instagram</a> and posted a collection of photos of herself and Saget. Some of them are more recent, from the period in and around <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/full-houses-jodie-sweetin-andrea-barber-weighed-in-another-spinoff-challenge-making-it">the <em>Fuller House</em> reboot</a>, but a couple of these are true throwbacks to when Candace Cameron Bure was just a kid named Candace Cameron.  It’s a relationship that has spanned most of her life, and seeing it in pictures is equal parts heartwarming and heartbreaking.</p><div class="instagram-embed"><blockquote class="instagram-media"  data-instgrm-version="6" style="width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DTTQVqWAbp-/" target="_blank">A post shared by Candace Cameron Bure (@candacecbure)</a></p><p>A photo posted by  on </p></blockquote></div><p>Bob Saget is one of those performers that a generation grew up watching, and so it felt like they knew the man personally. He was one of <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/why-full-house-bob-saget-struggled-with-being-americas-favorite-dad-according-to-jodie-sweetin-andrea-barber">America’s most famous dads</a> as Danny Tanner on <em>Full House</em>, even if <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/how-full-house-stars-parents-reacted-bob-saget-dirty-jokes-around-child-actors">his stand-up work was far more mature</a>. John Stamos posted his own <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DTTMeSLkjqc/?img_index=20">Instagram</a> tribute, with shots from both the <em>Full House</em> days and more recent times, showing the progression of a long friendship. In his post, Stamos said…</p><div><blockquote><p>Missing Bob feels like standing in a quiet room after the laughter stops. Your ears still ring with what was there, but the sound is gone. The heart of it is gone. It’s empty. </p></blockquote></div><p>John Stamos and Bob Saget certainly came a long way. <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/john-stamos-pissed-off-bob-saget-during-full-house-days-he-initially-disliked-co-star">Stamos has previously said he didn’t like his co-star</a> that much, but the two ultimately became very good friends. They spent one of their <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/theme-parks/john-stamos-reflects-on-final-day-he-spent-with-bob-saget-at-disneyland">last days together at Stamos’ favorite place, Disneyland</a>. Considering how random and unexpected Saget’s death was, there was certainly no way to know it would be the last time they would see each other. Sagat is believed to have died from injuries sustained from an accidental fall in his hotel room in Florida where he was on tour performing stand-up. </p><figure class="van-image-figure  inline-layout" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style="max-width:1280px;"><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:56.25%;"><img id="w9JQGXvWhdFBdWoNA28nMd" name="Full House Smash Club.jpg" alt="The Full House cast" src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/w9JQGXvWhdFBdWoNA28nMd.jpg" mos="" align="middle" fullscreen="" width="1280" height="720" attribution="" endorsement="" class="inline"></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=" inline-layout"><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: ABC)</span></figcaption></figure><p>The third member of the <em>Full House</em> trio, Dave Coulier, didn’t miss the chance to tell the world what Bob Saget meant to him, in his own <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DTTdrEjgWD3/?img_index=1">Instagram</a> post, he said he thought his friend would want that…</p><div><blockquote><p>I have no one else like Bob in my life, but he’s given me such great memories for the rest of it. To say that I miss him is an understatement. To say to the world about how much I loved him is exactly what Bob would’ve wanted. I love you Bob. ❤️</p></blockquote></div><p>It’s clear that Bob Saget meant a lot to those whose lives he touched. For those who knew him and those wno simply watched him, we’re all poorer now that he’s gone. Our thoughts go out to his friends and family on this difficult day. </p>

She started freelancing for the site in 2020 and officially came on board in 2021. Her job entails writing news stories and TV reactions from some of her favorite prime-time shows like Grey&#039;s Anatomy and The Bachelor. She graduated from Louisiana Tech University with a degree in Journalism and worked in the newspaper industry for almost two decades in multiple roles including Sports Editor, Page Designer and Online Editor.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Heidi grew up in the 1990s, and her tastes strongly reflect that. She can (and does) quote Friends constantly, enjoys a good West Wing binge, thinks Can&#039;t Hardly Wait was the most influential movie of her life and finds solace in 311 concerts. On Sundays during football season, she can be found cheering on the New Orleans Saints with her husband and two daughters. Who Dat! She loves to read but usually settles for a pop culture podcast, and thinks the best weekends are spent cooking and playing cards with friends and family, preferably with some UFC fights or other sporting event on TV.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Football season, Pumpkin Spice Lattes and everything related to fall and cooler weather. The Game of Roses podcast and all things The Bachelor, and new episodes of Grey&#039;s Anatomy, Love Is Blind, The Voice, OMITB and more.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>Candace Cameron Bure made big news a few years ago, when she announced she was <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/hallmark-stars-who-left-for-gac-family-and-who-are-definitely-staying">leaving Hallmark to join Great American Family</a>. The <em>Full House</em> alum has always been open about her spirituality, and it seems her big move, which allowed her to produce more faith-based content, might have been partly out of necessity, because it turns out she’s got strong feelings about how Christians are portrayed on TV shows and in movies. </p><p>The actress spoke candidly about the issue on <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/finding-freedom-that-lasts-with-madison-prewett-troutt/id1649600581?i=1000743941976"><em>The Candace Cameron Bure Podcast</em></a> in a conversation with Madison Prewett. After <em>The Bachelor </em>alum brought up how Christianity can be “twisted” on reality TV, the host jumped in with her full-fledged agreement, saying:</p><div><blockquote><p>It’s the worst! I get frustrated with the majority of movies and television shows I watch that have quote-unquote ‘a Christian character,’ because it’s this caricaturation of a horrible human being, usually, that just uses the Bible to hurt people. That’s the majority of it, which is why I produce movies that don’t have Christians in that light.</p></blockquote></div><p>I think it can be tough for TV and movie writers in general to properly represent any group of people — whether it’s Christians or something else — through a single character, because all nuance is lost and it ends up feeling more like a stereotype.</p><p>However, it seems like this issue becomes even worse in instances like Candace Cameron Bure is talking about, where Christians aren’t just written as broad generalizations but as fundamentally bad people who use their faith to cause harm.</p><p>Madison Prewett agreed, saying that if the media’s portrayal were real — showing so-called Christians either abusing God’s grace to live however they want or using religion to pass judgment on others — she wouldn’t want to be a part of it either.</p><p>It sounds like Candace Cameron Bure is trying to change that perception. In addition to her work as GAF’s Chief Creative Officer, where she’s produced holiday movies with themes of faith and family like <em>Timeless Tidings of Joy</em>, she also produced the 2024 Christian drama <em>Unsung Heroes</em>. The true story of the Christian music duo <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/critics-seen-unsung-hero-saying-about-faith-based-story-famous-musical-family">For King + Country saw mixed reviews from critics</a> but was <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/rotten-tomatoes-new-popcornmeter-surprising-movie-99-win-audience-unsung-hero-candace-cameron-bure">wildly popular on Rotten Tomatoes’ Popcornmeter</a>.</p><p>This year has already been a reflective one for the actress, as she opened up recently about how her <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-asked-what-faith-teaching-hollywood-god-body-positivity">faith keeps her humble amid the “flashbulbs”</a> of Hollywood. Her relationship with God, however, has never been a topic she’s shied away from, as she has said her <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/following-backlash-over-comments-candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-about-faith-and-filming-christmas-movies">faith is “the core and foundation of who I am.”</a></p><p>Surely she continues to put that energy into her work, and one of her upcoming projects is even <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/how-candace-cameron-bure-latest-home-sweet-christmas-movie-allow-her-film-in-europe">providing her with an opportunity she’s never had before</a>. Coming later this year to Great American Family, Candace Cameron Bure will team up with Cameron Mathison for <em>A Sweet Christmas Anniversary</em>, which will film on location in Salzburg, Austria. </p><p>Despite the fact that Bure has been acting since she was a child, she said she’s never filmed in Europe before, so I’m sure she’s excited about this third movie in the <em>Home Sweet Christmas</em> series and another opportunity to fight negative portrayals of Christianity on our screens.</p>

She’s been kicking out news stories at CinemaBlend since 2007 and joined the full-time staff in 2014. She oversees news content, hiring and training for the site, and her areas of expertise include theme parks, rom-coms, Hallmark (particularly Christmas movie season), reality TV, celebrity interviews and primetime. She loves a good animated movie.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jessica has a Masters in Library Science degree from Indiana University, and used to be found behind a reference desk most definitely not shushing people. She now uses those skills in researching and tracking down information in very different ways.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She’s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: A former soccer player and recent tennis addict, Jessica also enjoys running, both of the distance and sprint variety. When not at the movie theater or in a theme park, her other free time is spent in book clubs, hiking, drinking wine, binge-watching, keeping tabs on celebrity fashion and riding rollercoasters. Has a serious Hallmark habit and an even bigger record-buying habit. Will bake for compliments.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She’s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: &amp;nbsp;Hallmark Christmas movie season. Wearing socks to bed. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>Candace Cameron Bure is a bit of an odd duck, at least in Hollywood. Not because she has a strongly cemented marriage (<a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-son-helped-her-and-husband-val-prioritize-marriage"><u>though it only came with work</u></a>), three beautiful children, and a career at GAF that <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/making-family-faith-centered-movies-candace-cameron-bure-gaf-films-leaving-hallmark"><u>allows her to also produce</u></a>, but amidst many Hollywood stars, she’s one of the few who's allowed her public identity to correspond with her faith. So, what’s it like living in Hollywood as a God-fearing person among “the people and the flashbulbs?” Someone finally asked her. </p><p>Speaking on the red carpet for her podcast’s press tour, Candace Cameron Bure opened up about her career in Hollywood and what being in the spotlight really feels like. She noted that despite the distractions, her number one is still God, and that’s helped to remain humble amidst all the praise (and presumably the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/why-candace-cameron-bure-doesnt-fight-back-comments-when-people-are-negative-online"><u>Internet negativity she faces</u></a>). She told <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3vzYsJ6m6U"><u>Church Leaders</u></a>: </p><div><blockquote><p>Honestly, I’m really in a state of humility, and it’s such a beautiful place to be. Because, when you are in Hollywood, and there’s the lights and there’s the cameras, and there’s the people and the flashbulbs, all of this praise — I know that I only have an audience of one. And so while it’s a beautiful thing to receive praise from people, there’s nothing that fills my cup more than God, and that’s who I want to rely on for my ultimate praise; it’s not anybody else.</p></blockquote></div><p>Bure went on to say her faith keeps her anchored in an area where it could be easy to become distracted by fame or enamored with online gossip. In the past she’s opened up about sometimes <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/following-backlash-over-comments-candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-about-faith-and-filming-christmas-movies"><u>not verbally acknowledging her faith</u></a>, and seems positive about getting the chance to be candid about it here: </p><div><blockquote><p>Receive the love from people, but just to stay in a place of humility that I know that I’m good with God at the end of the day. When I have done my best for him, and I have honored him and just fall into the grace of his love that is so undeserved and so unearned.</p></blockquote></div><p>It’s true that Hollywood can test a person. It can test their grit, their mettle, their stick-to-it-ness. It can test their ideas about what’s normal when it comes to things like looks and body alterations. It can test decision-making skills and crush dreams. It can create a lot of noise, such as when the actress<a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-about-hallmark-exit-and-what-she-loves-about-gaf"><u> took flak for leaving Hallmark for GAF</u></a> or <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/jodie-sweetin-candid-being-very-different-from-candace-cameron-bure-faith-based-backlash">faced detraction from her <em>Full House</em> co-star Jodie Sweetin</a>. Bure also previously said <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-teared-up-over-how-harsh-shes-been-on-her-body-what-it-took-to-change"><u>she’s “spoken so harshly” to her body</u></a> in the past thanks to Hollywood ideals, and it was her faith that led her back to a healthier place. </p><p>Now, she’s able to talk about the “spotlights” and the noise from a mentally robust standpoint. The glitz of Hollywood has not glamoured her, and she credits that to her relationship with the Big G. </p>

She started freelancing for the site in 2020 and officially came on board in 2021. Her job entails writing news stories and TV reactions from some of her favorite prime-time shows like Grey&#039;s Anatomy and The Bachelor.

On Sundays during football season, she can be found cheering on the New Orleans Saints with her husband and two daughters. Who Dat! She loves to read but usually settles for a pop culture podcast, and thinks the best weekends are spent cooking and playing cards with friends and family, preferably with some UFC fights or other sporting event on TV.&lt;/p&gt;

                                <p>It’s been fun as a fan of <em>Full House</em> to see the very real bond that formed between the actors over the eight years the beloved sitcom aired back in the ‘80s and ‘90s. However, as so many of us will be reminded this holiday season, not everybody gets along all the time. Jodie Sweetin and Candace Cameron Bure bumped heads years ago over the latter’s <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/ex-hallmark-star-hilarie-burton-went-off-on-candace-cameron-bure-after-gaf-star-said-new-movies-will-feature-traditional-marriages">views on “traditional marriage”</a> and, while Sweetin has <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/full-house-jodie-sweetin-never-actually-feuding-candace-cameron-bure-traditional-marriage-beliefs-very-different-worlds">denied a full-out feud</a>, she spoke candidly about what makes her and Bure “very different.”</p><p>Candace Cameron Bure <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-explains-her-controversial-gaf-christmas-movie-quotes-after-public-backlash">responded to the backlash</a> from her infamous <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/candace-cameron-bure-great-american-family-11668205295">2022 WSJ interview</a> by saying that as a Christian, she loved everyone “fiercely and indiscriminately,” regardless of “race, creed, sexuality, or political party.” Jodie Sweetin, meanwhile, <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bures-daughter-defends-traditional-marriage-comments-after-jojo-siwa-jodie-sweetin-and-more-fired-back-at-gaf-star">stood by those like JoJo Siwa</a> who were speaking out, which seemingly resulted in Bure <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/after-jodie-sweetin-supported-jojo-siwa-during-traditional-marriage-controversy-candace-cameron-bure-seemingly-unfollowed-her-on-social-media">unfollowing her TV sister</a> on social media. The Stephanie Tanner actress got real about the ordeal on <a href="https://themomentshow.substack.com/p/what-makes-a-child-star-turn-into"><em>The Moment</em> podcast</a>, saying:</p><div><blockquote><p>Candace’s faith has always been at the forefront for her, and I have no problem with religion if it brings you peace and happiness — and not saying that her brand of religion is not necessarily peace and happiness; I don’t really know. But I do know that I don’t think that you can truly love people if you don’t respect them, and I think if you don’t respect people enough to allow them the same rights — of marriage, of bodily autonomy and all of those things — then I don’t think that you can truly love someone. It’s some sort of weird pity, and it’s not love. </p></blockquote></div><p>That’s not to say that these two don’t have love for each other — or that disagreements like this haven’t happened before. It turns out the actresses who portrayed DJ and Stephanie Tanner — the oldest and middle daughters of Bob Saget’s Danny Tanner — on <em>Full House</em> are just like any other family. Jodie Sweetin said:</p><div><blockquote><p>She was the closest thing I had to a sister. We fought like sisters. I mean, even when we were kids, you know, this is the relationship we’ve had. </p></blockquote></div><p>Jodie Sweetin, who <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/jodie-sweetin-speaks-out-on-being-an-lgbtq-ally-after-brouhaha-over-candace-cameron-bures-traditional-marriage-comments">has long been an LGBTQ+ ally</a> and an activist for other causes, then suggested that treating people as less-than because they’re different goes against what Christianity is supposed to be about. She said:</p><div><blockquote><p>I think that for me, standing up to say that how we treat other humans just because they’re different from us is completely unacceptable, and I’m pretty sure that’s what Jesus would have said, but what do I know, I’m not a Christian.</p></blockquote></div><p>She said that while Candace Cameron Bure always wanted to talk about her faith, she didn’t want to get into “political stuff.” Sweetin said she had no such hangups and wasn’t afraid to have people tell her they liked her <em>Full House</em> character but didn’t like her. In her words:</p><div><blockquote><p>I try not to let other people’s perceptions of who I should be or what they expect me to be put up any barriers to who I want to be, and Candace and I, we’re very different in that regard. She kept a little more quiet about certain things, and I am just, I’m loud. I’ve always been loud.</p></blockquote></div><p>At the time that rumors swirled of a feud between the actresses, other cast members like Dave Coulier confirmed that the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/after-candace-cameron-bures-alleged-beef-with-jodie-sweetin-she-and-full-house-co-star-discuss-how-cast-tends-to-bicker-like-a-family">cast members “bicker” with each other</a> from time to time, just like any family, but they ultimately all loved each other.</p><p>You can keep up with Candace Cameron Bure and Jodie Sweetin’s views on real-world events by following them on social media. However, if you’d rather just remember them as DJ and Stephanie, all eight seasons of <em>Full House</em> can be streamed with a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2570844/subscribing-to-hulu-the-price-whats-included-and-everything-else-to-know">Hulu subscription</a>, with the spinoff <em>Fuller House</em> available with a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/netflix-subscription-the-plans-the-price-and-whats-included">Netflix subscription</a>. </p>

She started freelancing for the site in 2020 and officially came on board in 2021. Her job entails writing news stories and TV reactions from some of her favorite prime-time shows like Grey&#039;s Anatomy and The Bachelor. She graduated from Louisiana Tech University with a degree in Journalism and worked in the newspaper industry for almost two decades in multiple roles including Sports Editor, Page Designer and Online Editor.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Heidi grew up in the 1990s, and her tastes strongly reflect that. She can (and does) quote Friends constantly, enjoys a good West Wing binge, thinks Can&#039;t Hardly Wait was the most influential movie of her life and finds solace in 311 concerts. On Sundays during football season, she can be found cheering on the New Orleans Saints with her husband and two daughters. Who Dat! She loves to read but usually settles for a pop culture podcast, and thinks the best weekends are spent cooking and playing cards with friends and family, preferably with some UFC fights or other sporting event on TV.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Football season, Pumpkin Spice Lattes and everything related to fall and cooler weather. The Game of Roses podcast and all things The Bachelor, and new episodes of Grey&#039;s Anatomy, Love Is Blind, The Voice, OMITB and more.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                            <article>
                                <p>Candace Cameron Bure has been acting since she was a child — portraying DJ Tanner on the beloved, <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/sitcoms-that-are-perfect-next-long-binge">bingeworthy sitcom</a> <em>Full House</em> — so it seems like opportunities would be few and far between to offer her something she’s never done before. Yet she’s getting that chance now, thanks to one of her latest offerings on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/upcoming-christmas-movie-schedule-streaming-and-tv-dates">2025 Christmas schedule</a>. Bure will reunite with Cameron Mathison again for a third <em>Home Sweet Christmas</em> flick, which will give Bure the chance to do something she's "never" done.</p><p>The love story between Sophie (Candace Cameron Bure) and Sam (Cameron Mathison) started in 2024 in their Great American Family holiday movie <em>Home Sweet Christmas</em> and continued on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2025-tv-premiere-date-schedule-upcoming-new-returning-shows">2025 TV schedule</a> with <em>Another Sweet Christmas</em>, which saw the couple get married. <em>A Sweet Christmas Anniversary</em> will see them traveling to Europe, and yes, they will be filming on location! Bure sounded thrilled as she opened up to <a href="https://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/news/candace-cameron-bure-is-filming-3rd-home-sweet-christmas-movie-in-europe/">US Weekly</a>, saying:</p><div><blockquote><p>I’ve never filmed in Europe before, so it is very exciting. Sam and Sophie will take a European Christmas vacation to celebrate their first anniversary. They’ll stroll through the picturesque Christmas markets, castles and take in the beauty of Christmas in a way that only Europe has to offer.</p></blockquote></div><p>How special for Candace Cameron Bure to get to travel to a different continent for this next installment for GAF. I wonder if she’s checked the weather forecast to see if it will be just as <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-shared-look-filming-her-first-post-hallmark-movie-for-gaf-and-she-looks-hot-literally">hot as filming Christmas movies during summer</a> in the U.S. </p><p>Either way, it’s a good thing the actress <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/does-candace-cameron-bure-get-tired-filming-christmas-movies-weird-my-job-christmas-24-7">never gets sick of Christmas</a>. Because, if we’re already looking ahead to the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2026-tv-premiere-date-schedule-network-streaming-series">2026 schedule</a>, it doesn’t seem like Bure’s days as a leading lady in these festive TV rom-coms are coming to an end anytime soon.</p><p>So what can GAF fans expect from <em>A Sweet Christmas Anniversary</em> after Sam and Sophie inherited a farm in the first film and then got married in the second? According to a logline for the upcoming third movie:</p><div><blockquote><p>In this enchanting third story in the Home Sweet Christmas franchise, Sophie and Sam embark to celebrate their first anniversary in picturesque Salzburg, a sprawling Christmas postcard town adorned with decorations and lights, a place one can almost smell the scents of mulled wine and gingerbread. </p></blockquote></div><p>Well, so far so good. <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/i-watched-every-hallmark-countdown-to-christmas-movie-this-year-here-are-great-christmas-concoctions-that-sound-delicious-and-that-sound-super-gross">I love a good Christmas beverage</a>, and this is certainly painting a lovely picture for what you’d want from a holiday trip to Europe. However, Sam and Sophie might be getting more than the brochure promised, as the description continues:</p><div><blockquote><p>What begins as a romantic first-year getaway quickly transforms into a lavish royal mystery when a charismatic hotelier draws the couple into a world of festive surprises. As Sophie uncovers a hidden connection to a beloved Christmas song, she and Sam must navigate the host’s surprising twists to safeguard their love — and to rediscover the true spirit of Christmas.</p></blockquote></div><p>This will be Candace Cameron Bure and Cameron Mathison’s third movie together — all of which came after both of the actors <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/hallmark-stars-who-left-for-gac-family-and-who-are-definitely-staying">left Hallmark for Great American Family</a>. The <em>Beat the Bridge</em> host wasn’t CCB’s only special co-star this year, though.</p><p>The actress also starred in <em>Timeless Tidings of Joy</em> with her daughter Natasha Bure, who portrayed her character’s grandmother in a time-traveling story. I’m sure Natasha wouldn’t mind if her mom could get her a ticket for this upcoming project as well! We’ll have to see how it all plays out when more details are released about this exciting new opportunity for Candace Cameron Bure.</p>

She has worked at multiple entertainment outlets, including as a Writer and Editor at Nerds and Beyond, TV and Movie News Writer at CBR, and a Freelance Writer at TV Fanatic, writing about topics she&#039;s passionate about like pop culture. She graduated from the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh with a degree in Multimedia Journalism in 2020, writing for the school’s newspaper during her time there. Her expertise in entertainment is mainly in television, but she has written about movies, music, and local events as well.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What They&#039;re Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Megan specializes in television writing, particularly procedurals. 9-1-1 and the Chicago Franchise are currently her favorites, where she can be found obsessively watching the latest episode or coming up with theories. She also loves to listen to music, with Taylor Swift being on the top of her playlist. She isn’t a huge sports person but will occasionally root for the Green Bay Packers, Milwaukee Brewers, and Wisconsin Badgers. As for movies, it’s hard to pick a favorite, but the Marvel Cinematic Universe reigns as her favorite franchise. She used to be a book nerd in grade school, with her favorite genre being fantasy or YA. Her favorite snack is sour cream and onion Pringles, while pizza is her all-time favorite food.&lt;/p&gt;

                                <p>As <em>When Calls the Heart </em>fans prepare for the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/when-calls-the-hearts-elizabeth-nathan-in-season-13-erin-krakow-spills-tea">much-anticipated 13<sup>th</sup> season</a> on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2026-tv-premiere-date-schedule-network-streaming-series">2026 TV schedule</a>, they are coming together for a completely different reason that involves one of the stars, and they aren’t the only ones. After Erin Krakow revealed some baby news, Candace Cameron Bure, Lacey Chabert, and more rom-com stars were quick to respond.</p><p>The <em>WCTH </em>star shared on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DRhiMxkkefe/">Instagram</a> Wednesday morning that she and co-star and husband, Ben Rosenbaum, are expecting their first child. In a joint post, Krakow wrote, “So much to be grateful for!!!” alongside some sweet polaroids of the two of them showing off the sonogram. Of course, their dog got in on the action as well, wearing a “big brother” shirt, and I’m absolutely melting for multiple reasons: </p><div class="instagram-embed"><blockquote class="instagram-media"  data-instgrm-version="6" style="width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DRhiMxkkefe/" target="_blank">A post shared by Erin Krakow (@erinkrakow)</a></p><p>A photo posted by  on </p></blockquote></div><p>This is an exciting time for the couple, who quietly tied the knot over the summer after meeting on the set of the long-running Hallmark Western romance. Plenty of friends, fellow rom-com actors, and <em>WCTH </em>co-stars made sure to share their well-wishes with the happy couple as they embark on another new chapter in their lives. I think it’s safe to say that Baby Krakow-Rosenbaum will make a great addition to the rom-com and Hallmark family:</p><ul><li>Congratulations!!!! 🎈 -Candace Cameron Bure</li><li>So thrilled for you! 💜 -Lacey Chabert</li><li>Congratulations! What wonderful parents you’ll be! ❤️ -Kevin McGarry</li><li>It’s the most exciting news ever!!!!! -Nikki DeLoach</li><li>So much love for the 4 of you! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ -Pascale Hutton</li><li>SO HAPPY FOR YOU ALL!!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️ -Rachel Boston</li></ul><p>I just love seeing my favorite rom-com actors interacting with each other, especially when it comes to news such as a pregnancy, engagement, marriage, or anything along those lines. And what makes it even better is seeing <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-about-hallmark-exit-and-what-she-loves-about-gaf">former Hallmark stars</a>, such as Candace Cameron Bure, share a sweet response, as it shows that even though she’s not on the network anymore and has taken over GAF, she remains close to her Hallmark friends. </p><p>As previously mentioned, <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/when-calls-the-heart-erin-krakow-ben-rosenbaum-got-married-fans-freaking-out-in-comments">Erin Krakow and Ben Rosenbaum got married</a> in June, and while their characters, Elizabeth and Mike, are not lovers, that didn’t seem to stop them from having their own love story. They are one of the few <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/when-calls-the-heart-and-hallmark-favorite-kevin-mcgarry-just-got-engaged-to-his-co-star">real-life love stories to come from <em>When Calls the Heart</em></a>, and it will be exciting to see that story continue with their own bundle of joy. And it seems like they are already so loved and have many aunts and uncles.</p><p>Meanwhile, this baby news couldn’t have come at a better time. Krakow revealed on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DQYGebYDc2G/">Instagram</a> in late October that filming has wrapped on <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/when-calls-the-heart-season-13-filming-erin-krakow-celebrated-sweet-video"><em>When Calls the Heart </em>Season 13</a>, which is officially premiering on January 4 on Hallmark Channel. So Krakow will be able to rest and put most of her focus on the baby. </p><p>It’s a little early to predict what could happen if the show moves forward with a 14<sup>th</sup> season, especially since <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/as-a-when-calls-the-heart-fan-nervous-hearing-erin-krakow-kevin-mcgarry-tease-ahead-elizabeth-nathan">Elizabeth and Nathan's relationship can be unpredictable</a>, but Krakow will just have to cross that bridge if and when it happens. For now, it’s just an exciting time for her and Rosenbaum.</p>

She started freelancing for the site in 2020 and officially came on board in 2021. Her job entails writing news stories and TV reactions from some of her favorite prime-time shows like Grey&#039;s Anatomy and The Bachelor. She graduated from Louisiana Tech University with a degree in Journalism and worked in the newspaper industry for almost two decades in multiple roles including Sports Editor, Page Designer and Online Editor.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Heidi grew up in the 1990s, and her tastes strongly reflect that. She can (and does) quote Friends constantly, enjoys a good West Wing binge, thinks Can&#039;t Hardly Wait was the most influential movie of her life and finds solace in 311 concerts. On Sundays during football season, she can be found cheering on the New Orleans Saints with her husband and two daughters. Who Dat! She loves to read but usually settles for a pop culture podcast, and thinks the best weekends are spent cooking and playing cards with friends and family, preferably with some UFC fights or other sporting event on TV.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Football season, Pumpkin Spice Lattes and everything related to fall and cooler weather. The Game of Roses podcast and all things The Bachelor, and new episodes of Grey&#039;s Anatomy, Love Is Blind, The Voice, OMITB and more.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>Candace Cameron Bure <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/actors-who-will-always-be-known-for-one-iconic-television-character">will always be known for her role</a> as a child actor on <em>Full House</em> and for the charming TV movies on Great American Family (don’t miss her on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/upcoming-christmas-movie-schedule-streaming-and-tv-dates">2025 Christmas movie schedule</a>!). But over the years she’s become equally as well-known for standing by her faith, and that’s come with plenty of backlash for things she’s said and done. The actress addressed this recently and explained why she generally doesn’t respond to negativity on social media.</p><p>The <em>Aurora Teagarden</em> alum sat down with Madison Prewett (who went through a pretty <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2491736/bachelor-spoilers-the-real-reasons-why-peters-mom-barb-doesnt-like-madison">traumatic experience on <em>The Bachelor</em></a> that apparently <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/bachelor-contestant-says-she-lost-20-lbs-vying-for-affection-red-rose-peter-weber-madison-prewett">caused her to lose 20 pounds</a>) to share how she deals with nasty comments, which apparently come from both fans and fellow Christians alike. Candace Cameron Bure said on the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMpAQ_RJ1Qc&t=2883s"><em>Stay True</em> podcast</a>:</p><div><blockquote><p>I usually don’t fight back in the comments, because nothing really comes from it. I feel like when you fight back in the comments, it becomes defensive. I feel like the more people defend themselves, the less integrity it holds. So I let God fight my battles a lot online. </p></blockquote></div><p>Candace Cameron Bure has said her <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-asked-about-getting-so-much-public-hate-real-about-how-gut-reaction-helped">“gut reaction” is to avoid confrontation</a>, so she mostly stays quiet when something upsets the masses, though she did offer small defenses both when <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-spills-the-real-tea-on-why-jojo-siwa-called-her-the-rudest-and-how-they-connected-after">JoJo Siwa called her the “rudest” celebrity</a> she’d ever met and when she made <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-explains-her-controversial-gaf-christmas-movie-quotes-after-public-backlash">comments about “traditional marriage”</a> in GAF movies in an infamous <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/candace-cameron-bure-great-american-family-11668205295">WSJ interview</a>. </p><p>Those issues played out in the media (and even possibly with her TV sister, Jodie Sweetin — who <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/full-house-jodie-sweetin-never-actually-feuding-candace-cameron-bure-traditional-marriage-beliefs-very-different-worlds">denies there was ever a full-blown feud</a>) long after Candace Cameron Bure offered her statements on them. Bure told Madi Prewett how she finds the strength to remain quiet:</p><div><blockquote><p>It takes self-control, and I pray the Holy Spirit gives me self-control every day, especially in those situations. Because it feels brutal because you can’t win. You can’t please both sides. You just can’t. There has to be a point in your life where you just let it go. You’re like, ‘I’m not going to win.’ You remind people that lots of people hated Jesus, they’re not all gonna love me.</p></blockquote></div><p>She also admitted that sometimes allowing her “genuine fans” to fight her battles for her is effective, and it’s something she’s grateful for.</p><p>While Candace Cameron Bure has gotten backlash for statements she's made — including how her <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-backlash-after-she-mentioned-husband-didnt-like-her-kiss-other-people-movies">husband doesn’t like seeing her kiss other men</a> in Christmas movies — it’s the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-gets-candid-about-hateful-messages-she-gets-about-aging-her-looks-on-daily-basis">hateful messages about her body</a> that she has to deal with on a daily basis. In September, she even took down a swimsuit photo after being <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-talks-taking-down-swimsuit-photo-flooded-body-shaming-comments">“flooded” with body-shaming comments</a>.</p><p>Despite the negativity she’s endured, Candace Cameron Bure continues to post her photos and speak her truth. As for her work on-screen, you can catch her and daughter Natasha Bure in an encore presentation of <em>Timeless Tidings of Joy</em> at 8 p.m. ET Saturday, November 29, on Great American Family.</p>

In addition to writing and editing stories on a variety of different topics, she also spends her work days trying to find new ways to write about the many romantic entanglements that fictional characters find themselves in on TV shows. She graduated from Mizzou with a degree in Photojournalism.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Adrienne will maintain until her dying day (and probably well after that, if possible) that 9 to 5 is one of the best movies ever made, though she also holds a special place in her heart for Auntie Mame, Office Space, and Bridesmaids. This may make it sound like her life and entertainment choices are only giggle-focused (not totally untrue), but she also enjoys warm-hearted dramadies (Gilmore Girls, Lovesick), creepy stuff (The X-Files, Evil), sci-fi/fantasy (most Star Treks, The Witcher), romantic shows (Bridgerton, Sweet Magnolias, Outlander), and the occasional drama (The Wire, Vikings: Valhalla). Adrienne likes cooking, but also ordering delivery so that strangers can be forced to bring her food, and believes that most days are incomplete without chocolate, reading, and staring out the window to see if any wild animals are engaging in shenanigans.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yennefer&#039;s apprentice, Gilmore Girl; will Vulcan nerve pinch pretty much anyone if prompted with cheese...Yes, even Jamie Fraser.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Weather and raccoons that only come out at night!&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>There are many truths about life that we all just understand after a certain point, and one of those is that relationships of every stripe can be complicated. This tends to be especially true for relationships of the romantic kind, and it seems to be even more accurate if one or both people in that romance are celebrities. Still, <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/hallmark-stars-who-left-for-gac-family-and-who-are-definitely-staying">GAF movies star</a> and producer Candace Cameron Bure and her husband, former NHL star Valeri Bure, have now been married for 29 years. But, she recently reflected on some of the tough years they’ve had and how their oldest son helped them stay the course.</p><h2 id="what-candace-cameron-bure-said-about-tough-years-in-her-marriage-and-how-her-son-helped">What Candace Cameron Bure Said About Tough Years In Her Marriage And How Her Son Helped</h2><p>Candace Cameron was still thought of as a fresh-faced child star when her co-star, Dave Coulier, <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/i-just-found-out-candace-cameron-bure-was-introduced-to-her-husband-by-dave-coulier-and-i-love-the-full-house-stars-sweet-exchange-on-her-anniversary">introduced her to pro hockey player Val Bure</a>, on <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2569751/internet-sleuthing-candace-cameron-bure-share-full-house-met-valeri-husband">a night that also saw them hanging out with <em>Full House</em> actors</a>/friends Bob Saget and Lori Laughlin. It only took about two years for the actress and athlete to marry, in 1996, meaning that they’ve now been together for nearly 30 years. </p><p>While speaking on the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMpAQ_RJ1Qc"><em>Stay True</em> podcast</a> recently, the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/upcoming-christmas-movie-schedule-streaming-and-tv-dates">2025 Christmas movie schedule</a> actress (<a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/sweet-way-candace-cameron-bure-daughter-honored-her-married">whose daughter, Natasha, recently honored her while getting married</a>) opened up about how difficult it can be to remain coupled throughout the hard times in life, and said:</p><div><blockquote><p>We had great years. We had some years I wish we could take back and do over. It’s a constant reevaluation. I think year to year you have to reevaluate what’s working, what’s not. How are the schedules changing? And you have to continually adapt to what’s new to figure out your rhythms, and the rhythms are going to keep changing. Your marriage gets put to the test. You have to prioritize the relationship.</p></blockquote></div><p>Cameron Bure noted that having children can add a lot of pressure, particularly because kids “demand all of you” and once they get older can turn into “little manipulative beings that are so stinking cute” but “pit” spouses against each other. </p><p>However, the mom of three also gave some serious props to her oldest son, Levi (now 25), when speaking on <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@ccbpodcast/video/7524389756776582455?_r=1&_t=ZT-8xqEfx0Spct">her own eponymous podcast</a> over the summer, because he noticed when he was a kid that his parents had hit a “rough season” where she didn’t think they’d “make it through,” and helped them both step up to the plate to heal the reactionship. As she noted:</p><div><blockquote><p>At one point, Lev preached, like, a 45-minute sermon on marriage to us. Just had his Bible open on the couch and just talked about it. And I’ll never forget, ‘cause he said, ‘You know, I know I haven’t been married. I’m just a young kid. So it’s probably hard to take marriage advice from someone this young [who] never experienced it before. But I don’t need to be married to know what the word of God says.’</p></blockquote></div><p>That honest conversation from their son, who she said had a “calm voice that had so much wisdom behind it,” led the two to go back to reevaluating and prioritizing their relationship, and to the duo being able to keep things going for almost a full three decades now.</p>

She has written for national publications as well as daily and alt-weekly newspapers in Spokane, Washington, Syracuse, New York and Charleston, South Carolina. She graduated with her master’s degree in arts journalism and communications from the Newhouse School at Syracuse University. Since joining the CB team she has covered numerous TV shows and movies -- including her personal favorite shows &lt;em&gt;Ted Lasso &lt;/em&gt;and &lt;em&gt;The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel&lt;/em&gt;. She also has followed and consistently written about everything from Taylor Swift to &lt;em&gt;Fire Country&lt;/em&gt;, and she&#039;s enjoyed every second of it.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Riley’s range in likes is random and wide, from Marvel to musicals and from&lt;em&gt; Game of Thrones&lt;/em&gt; to the latest Netflix rom-com you can catch her watching just about anything. Her favorite movies include but are not limited to &lt;em&gt;When Harry Met Sally, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse, Finding Nemo&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;The Grand Budapest Hotel&lt;/em&gt;. She loves going to the movie theater, consuming copious amounts of popcorn and logging whatever she saw on Letterboxd immediately afterward. She constantly walks around quoting &lt;em&gt;Ted Lasso, SNL&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Parks and Rec&lt;/em&gt;. She has been known to create the occasional PowerPoint explaining the MCU to those who don’t get it. In the non-media realm, Riley is a massive college basketball fan. She is a firm believer that the Gonzaga men’s basketball team is the best team of all time, and she is patiently waiting for the day they finally win a national championship. She grew up in Washington and loves skiing, coffee and making sure that people know she is from the state, not D.C.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Anything Taylor Swift or Andrew Garfield does, finally seeing strong female representation in the MCU and eventually seeing Jonathan Bailey sing his heart out in &lt;em&gt;Wicked&lt;/em&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>I feel like when you think about the sheer trend, you have to think about it on a spectrum. On one end, you have naked dresses, like the ones <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/margot-robbie-and-jenna-ortega-brought-back-the-naked-dress-why-an-expert-says-it-isnt-just-about-showing-skin"><u>Margot Robbie and Jenna Ortega have rocked</u></a>. On the other end, you have garments that aren’t fully sheer but feature panels of it, like the dress Candace Cameron Bure wore, which was opaque with the exception of a few cool sheer cutouts.  </p><p>Considering the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/upcoming-christmas-movie-schedule-streaming-and-tv-dates"><u>Christmas movie schedule</u></a> is about to kick into high gear, Candace Cameron Bure is starting to promote her upcoming work. So, she stopped by Fox 5 New York to chat about her project on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/upcoming-movies-2025-new-movie-release-dates"><u>2025 movie schedule</u></a>, <em>Another Sweet Christmas,</em> as well as her book <em>Rise and Renew: A 30-Day Devotional</em>. Obviously, she showed up to her interview in style, too, as you can see below:  </p><div class="youtube-video" data-nosnippet ><div class="video-aspect-box"><iframe data-lazy-priority="high" data-lazy-src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/7Gm-30fVBNU" allowfullscreen></iframe></div></div><p>What a classy take on the sheer trend! Upon first glance, I didn’t realize that her look was see-through. For a second, I could only see the deep blue top and skirt. However, then, I noticed the black paneling around the waist of her dress. </p><p>It looks like the black sheer panel goes around Bure’s waist, and is shaped into a V in the middle, and I’m here for it. It adds some edge to her fit, and I’m such a fan of mixing edgy and classy elements together. </p><p>Over the last year, we’ve seen a lot of fashion moments that feature sheer cutouts like this as well. <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/isla-fisher-not-aiming-make-corset-look-disappear-now-you-see-me-now-you-dont-premiere"><u>Isla Fisher recently rocked a corset dress</u></a> to a <em>Now You See Me: Now You Don’t </em>photocall that was made of crushed velvet and featured a sheer lace corset around her waist. Meanwhile, <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/karen-gillan-rocked-coolest-red-minidress-unique-sheer-cutouts"><u>Karen Gillan rocked the coolest red minidress</u></a> this summer that had incredibly unique sheer cutouts on the sides. Oh, and about a year ago, <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/emma-stone-epic-cutout-dress-kinds-of-kindness-premiere-sheer-perfection"><u>Emma Stone attended a premiere in a black sheer dress</u></a> that had numerous cutouts. So, it feels like there are an infinite number of ways to make this trend your own, and I love how they all did it. </p><p>I also adore how Candace Cameron Bure did it. This look was perfect for the event, and I appreciate the juxtaposition of the navy blue T-shirt top and long skirt with the sheer sides. </p><div class="product"><a data-dimension112="fabff439-ba80-47e0-9de5-ef207fc2315f" data-action="Deal Block" data-label="YouTube TV: $82.99 a Month" data-dimension48="YouTube TV: $82.99 a Month" href="https://www.anrdoezrs.net/click-100412901-17162003?sid=hawk-custom-tracking" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><figure class="van-image-figure "  ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style="max-width:500px;"><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:100.00%;"><img id="TwYZKphCqMQowTMtcWP4YR" name="YouTube TV 500" caption="" alt="" src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/TwYZKphCqMQowTMtcWP4YR.jpg" mos="" align="middle" fullscreen="" width="500" height="500" attribution="" endorsement="" credit="" class=""></p></div></div></figure></a><p><a href="https://tv.youtube.com/welcome/partner/cjpartner/?coupon_code=100412901" data-dimension112="fabff439-ba80-47e0-9de5-ef207fc2315f" data-action="Deal Block" data-label="YouTube TV: $82.99 a Month" data-dimension48="YouTube TV: $82.99 a Month" data-dimension25=""><strong>YouTube TV: $82.99 a Month</strong></a></p><p>Looking to make the jump from cable to an internet TV package?

Her take on sheer showed off the other side of the spectrum that comes with this trend, and I’d love to see how she can make other styles her own. </p><p>I’m sure she’ll do just that, too, seeing as she’s releasing three Christmas movies this year. <em>Timeless Tidings of Joy </em>and <em>Home Sweet Christmas Wedding </em>are set to premiere on Great American Family over the next few months. Meanwhile, to see the movie the actress was promoting while she wore this lovely sheer dress, <em>Another Sweet Christmas </em>will be in theaters from November 30 through December 2. </p>

She started freelancing for the site in 2020 and officially came on board in 2021. Her job entails writing news stories and TV reactions from some of her favorite prime-time shows like Grey&#039;s Anatomy and The Bachelor.

                                <p>Nobody can stop the passage of time, but knowing that doesn’t necessarily make getting older any easier. Aging in Hollywood has been a big topic of discussion lately, with <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/demi-moore-opened-up-aging-in-hollywood-tremendous-gift">Demi Moore calling it a “tremendous gift,”</a> and <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/59-year-old-halle-berry-says-age-is-just-a-number-black-bikini-vacation-photos">Halle Berry proving age is just a number</a>. Candace Cameron Bure opened up about her own (less-empowering) experience, recalling a moment that sent her spiraling, when she was told her neck needed to be edited for a role.</p><p>Candace Cameron Bure is set to appear on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/upcoming-christmas-movie-schedule-streaming-and-tv-dates">2025 Christmas movie schedule</a> in <em>Timeless Tidings of Joy</em> for Great American Family. The movie features a flashback where Bure’s character is about 15 years younger, and the actress detailed on her eponymous podcast how her face was edited in post-production to make her appear around 30 years old. She explained:</p><div><blockquote><p>They recapped and said, ‘What we’re gonna concentrate on is your forehead, your crow’s feet, around your mouth, your smile lines,’ and I go, ‘Great!’ And then he goes, ‘And your neck.’ I was like, ‘Wait, what? What? My neck? You need to do something to my neck?’ </p></blockquote></div><p>Of all the ways in which one’s body can betray one’s age, Candace Cameron Bure never thought about how the neck changes over time. She continued:</p><div><blockquote><p>I have never considered that my neck looks old, that my neck has aged. I didn’t even think about it. And then when he told me he’s gonna work on my neck, I’m like, ‘Oh great, I’m going back to therapy!’</p></blockquote></div><p>Candace Cameron Bure shared this podcast clip to <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DPE_-PzEqH4/?hl=en">Instagram</a> with the dramatic caption: </p><div><blockquote><p>…Excuse me while I spiral!!😰</p></blockquote></div><p>I completely understand her reaction, too. Candace Cameron Bure has dealt with scrutiny about her body since she was a child actor playing DJ Tanner on <em>Full House</em>. So to have something about your body pointed out to you that you’d never even considered would be quite jarring.</p><p>The actress has spoken out before, saying she gets <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-gets-candid-about-hateful-messages-she-gets-about-aging-her-looks-on-daily-basis">hateful comments about her body</a> on a daily basis. While she’s become pretty good with handling such things after decades of practice, it’s definitely still an issue, as she recently deleted a swimsuit pic from social media after being <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-talks-taking-down-swimsuit-photo-flooded-body-shaming-comments">flooded with body-shaming comments</a>.</p><p>So, in addition to the hate she’s used to receiving online, Candace Cameron Bure now has to worry about her age showing on her neck, too? I can see how that could be devastating. I do love that she gets so candid about her insecurities, though, because that probably makes her relatable to a lot of her fans. </p><p>Aging is something that happens to all of us, but it is kind of hilariously depressing how some aspects of getting older can sneak up on us in unsuspecting ways. Keep an eye out for Candace Cameron Bure this holiday season, and also you can see her in old episodes of <em>Full House</em>, which are available to stream with a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2570844/subscribing-to-hulu-the-price-whats-included-and-everything-else-to-know">Hulu subscription</a>.</p>

She has written for national publications as well as daily and alt-weekly newspapers in Spokane, Washington, Syracuse, New York and Charleston, South Carolina. She graduated with her master’s degree in arts journalism and communications from the Newhouse School at Syracuse University. Since joining the CB team she has covered numerous TV shows and movies -- including her personal favorite shows &lt;em&gt;Ted Lasso &lt;/em&gt;and &lt;em&gt;The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel&lt;/em&gt;. She also has followed and consistently written about everything from Taylor Swift to &lt;em&gt;Fire Country&lt;/em&gt;, and she&#039;s enjoyed every second of it.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Riley’s range in likes is random and wide, from Marvel to musicals and from&lt;em&gt; Game of Thrones&lt;/em&gt; to the latest Netflix rom-com you can catch her watching just about anything. Her favorite movies include but are not limited to &lt;em&gt;When Harry Met Sally, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse, Finding Nemo&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;The Grand Budapest Hotel&lt;/em&gt;. She loves going to the movie theater, consuming copious amounts of popcorn and logging whatever she saw on Letterboxd immediately afterward. She constantly walks around quoting &lt;em&gt;Ted Lasso, SNL&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Parks and Rec&lt;/em&gt;. She has been known to create the occasional PowerPoint explaining the MCU to those who don’t get it. In the non-media realm, Riley is a massive college basketball fan. She is a firm believer that the Gonzaga men’s basketball team is the best team of all time, and she is patiently waiting for the day they finally win a national championship. She grew up in Washington and loves skiing, coffee and making sure that people know she is from the state, not D.C.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Anything Taylor Swift or Andrew Garfield does, finally seeing strong female representation in the MCU and eventually seeing Jonathan Bailey sing his heart out in &lt;em&gt;Wicked&lt;/em&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>Sometimes, life really does feel like one of those Hallmark or GAF movies we see on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2025-tv-premiere-date-schedule-upcoming-new-returning-shows"><u>2025 TV schedule</u></a>, and that was recently true for one of GAF’s biggest stars, Candace Cameron Bure. That’s because <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-daughter-natasha-married-photos"><u>her daughter just got married</u></a>, and not only are the images super duper sweet, but the mom of the bride was honored during the festivities in the sweetest way. </p><p>Candace Cameron Bure’s 27-year-old daughter, Natasha Bure, got married to Bradley Steven Perry, who you might recognize from Disney Channel's <em>Good Luck Charlie</em>, recently. They tied the knot in Malibu, California, in front of 150 guests, and the bride’s mom was a big part of not only the ceremony but the tradition of “something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue.” Natasha explained the part in that fun tradition her mom played, specifically, explaining to <a href="https://people.com/natasha-bure-makes-mom-candace-cameron-bure-her-something-blue-at-wedding-to-bradley-steven-perry-exclusive-11812321"><u>People</u></a>: </p><div><blockquote><p>My mom is my something blue at my wedding which is so special. She means the absolute world to me, so having her honored in that way felt so right.</p></blockquote></div><p>As the story notes, typically, the bride has something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue with them when they get married. Normally, it’s a piece of clothing, jewelry or an item they carry. However, Natasha asked Candace to wear a blue gown for the ceremony so she could be her “something blue.” </p><p>She did it during her first brial appointment too, making matters even cuter. They were meeting with Kinsley Couture Bridal when the young Bure asked her mom if she’d be her something blue. It was a “special day” too, as Natasha said: </p><div><blockquote><p>It was a particularly special day as well, because that first bridal appointment was where I asked my mom to be my 'something blue' and asked my sister-in-law to be one of my bridesmaids. It felt like the perfect kick off to the engagement season.</p></blockquote></div><p>Natasha and Perry got engaged in mid-April and walked down the aisle recently. Along with Candace being her something blue, she also asked her dad, Valeri Bure, who has been <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bures-been-married-to-husband-val-for-26-years-and-they-celebrated-the-milestone-with-a-funny-photo"><u>married to the </u><u><em>Full House </em></u><u>star for nearly 30 years</u></a>, to walk her down the aisle to a special song, which was “Mia & Sebastian’s Theme” from <em>La La Land</em>. </p><p>The bride didn’t hold back when explaining how much her parents’ involvement in the ceremony meant to her, sweetly saying: </p><div><blockquote><p>I get emotional just thinking about the two of them because I feel so lucky to have them as my parents. I truly couldn’t dream of more amazing humans to experience this all with.</p></blockquote></div><p>The holiday movie icon met that excitement, too, when she posted about the news. It’s not surprising, though, considering she called her son <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-after-pics-son-wedding-viral"><u>Lev’s wedding one of the highlights</u></a> of her life back in 2024. </p><p>Now, as the happy couple celebrates their marriage and I continue to smile about the unique way they incorporated Candace Cameron Bure into the ceremony, let’s talk about what the actress is doing next. </p><p>Summer is basically over, which means the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/upcoming-christmas-movie-schedule-streaming-and-tv-dates"><u>2025 Christmas movie schedule</u></a> is getting close, and that’s when CCB shines. She’s used to <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/does-candace-cameron-bure-get-tired-filming-christmas-movies-weird-my-job-christmas-24-7"><u>filming holiday projects 24/7</u></a>, and we’re almost to the point in the year where we get to see them. This year, you’ll want to keep an eye out for <em>Home Sweet Christmas Wedding</em> (which is fitting) as well as <em>Timeless Tidings of Joy</em>, which Natasha is also in! </p><p>So, we’ll get to keep celebrating this sweet mother-daughter duo as the year goes on! But for now, let’s give them some props for this adorable something blue moment. </p>

After graduating at Florida Atlantic University with a degree in film and theater in 2015, she worked for a year as a journalist for Talk Media covering South Florida news. In 2017, she spent four years as a ghostwriter writing about addiction and mental health for rehab and therapy blogs. Now, she divides her time writing about the subjects of both entertainment and mental health issues.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What They&#039;re Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Carly is an avid cinephile who is always looking for the next best film to watch whether it goes back to the silent film era to what&#039;s playing in theaters. Her analytical mindset enhances her writing as she gains true understanding of the characters and stories that makes a movie great enough to write about. Her passion ranges from following film scavenger hunts on Letterboxd to discover new films and creating watchlists based on the latest trailers. She enjoys the originality and freshness indie cinema brings, particularly A24 films. During her spare time, Carly loves to listen to post hardcore rock music, watch classic television sitcoms, and reads a variety of books. She also likes to challenge her writing by writing essays on various trending topics that draw her eye.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What They&#039;re Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: The latest movies hitting the &quot;Big Five&quot; film festivals (especially Venice and Sundance). Anything A24 and Wes Anderson touches. Continuously making my mark through my writing and creating watchlists.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>Candace Cameron Bure has a lot to be excited about, and I'm not talking about her thriving TV career. Just last year, the veteran actress described her <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-after-pics-son-wedding-viral">son’s wedding as “the highlight of [her] life.”</a> Now, the <em>Full House</em> alum gets to celebrate another one of her kids tying the knot. Yes, in a surprising bit of news, Natasha Bure just had a beautiful wedding ceremony, and the photos are so sweet!</p><p>The Great American Family actress seemed to be all smiles amid her daughter's wedding weekend. Natasha Bure married partner Bradley Steven Perry, with reports suggesting that the ceremony took place earlier this month. There are some weddings that just look as though they could be featured in a storybook, and that's definitely the case with Bure and Perry's nuptials. Take a look at the photos Candace shared to Instagram, which give off pure marital bliss:</p><div class="instagram-embed"><blockquote class="instagram-media"  data-instgrm-version="6" style="width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DOr1GVOD4TC/" target="_blank">A post shared by Candace Cameron Bure (@candacecbure)</a></p><p>A photo posted by  on </p></blockquote></div><p>Candace Cameron Bure sure remembered to wear something blue, didn’t she? This is a ceremony that looks like something out of a Hallmark movie, which is ironic, given Bure's body of work. Fans can see so many white flowers, a wedding cake worth devouring and lovey-dovey photos of the bride and groom, which make me incredibly happy for them. The icing on the (proverbial) cake has to be Bure fitting her daughter’s wedding dress, which is a truly lovely sight.</p><p>By the way, if the groom looks a little familiar to you, it's because Bradley Steven Perry is a former child actor, who starred on <em>Good Luck Charlie </em>(which is available with a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/news/2492773/how-to-best-use-disney-tips-to-get-the-most-out-of-the-streaming-service">Disney+ subscription</a>). He and Natasha Bure look incredibly cute together, whether they pose under an umbrella, share sweet kisses, or enjoy ice cream cones. Talk about a lovely match!</p><div  class="fancy-box"><div class="fancy_box-title">More on Candace Cameron Bure</div><div class="fancy_box_body"><figure class="van-image-figure "  ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' ><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:56.25%;"><img id="3TtjQJV7yVpJynePh9FcoL" name="olsen twin cc" caption="" alt="One of the Olsen twins as Michelle and Candace Cameron Bure as DJ on a Season 7 episode of Full House." src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/3TtjQJV7yVpJynePh9FcoL.jpg" mos="" link="" align="" fullscreen="" width="" height="" attribution="" endorsement="" class="pinterest-pin-exclude"></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=""><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: Max)</span></figcaption></figure><p class="fancy-box__body-text"><a data-analytics-id="inline-link" href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-rare-comment-about-mary-kate-ashley-olsen-how-they-contributed-full-houses-success">Candace Cameron Bure Makes A Rare Comment About The Olsen Twins, Including How They Contributed To Full House’s Success</a></p></div></div><p>Marriage seems to be incredibly important to the Bure family, and Candace Cameron has long been open about hers. She was <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/i-just-found-out-candace-cameron-bure-was-introduced-to-her-husband-by-dave-coulier-and-i-love-the-full-house-stars-sweet-exchange-on-her-anniversary">introduced to her husband, Valeri Bure<u>,</u></a> in 1994 by <em>Full House</em> co-star Dave Coulier during a charity hockey game, and they’ve been together ever since. The fact that Candace met her husband by way of a cast member is one aspect of her love story that I absolutely adore. </p><p>As for Natasha Bure and Bradley Steven Perry, I'm excited for their next moves as a married couple. <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bures-daughter-natasha-why-moving-out-hollywood-chris-hemsworth-ryan-reynolds">Bure has since left Hollywood</a> and moved to Texas. The social media star explained that she felt as though she was in a "little bubble" while living in Los Angeles, and she really wanted to get out of her comfort zone.</p><p>Hopefully, Bure and her husband <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bures-been-married-to-husband-val-for-26-years-and-they-celebrated-the-milestone-with-a-funny-photo">celebrate milestones with funny photos</a> like her parents do. I definitely wouldn't be surprised if that proves to be the case, given the Mrs.' activity on social media.</p><p>At present, though, I'm just happy for the newlyweds as well as their family. I definitely feel the pride that Candace Cameron Bure has in the fact that her not-so-little girl is now a married woman. On that note, here's to many years of happiness for Natasha and Bradley Steven Perry!</p>

                                                                <dc:description><![CDATA[ &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Background&lt;/strong&gt;: Heidi Venable is a Content Producer for CinemaBlend. She started freelancing for the site in 2020 and officially came on board in 2021. Her job entails writing news stories and TV reactions from some of her favorite prime-time shows like Grey&#039;s Anatomy and The Bachelor. She graduated from Louisiana Tech University with a degree in Journalism and worked in the newspaper industry for almost two decades in multiple roles including Sports Editor, Page Designer and Online Editor.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Heidi grew up in the 1990s, and her tastes strongly reflect that. She can (and does) quote Friends constantly, enjoys a good West Wing binge, thinks Can&#039;t Hardly Wait was the most influential movie of her life and finds solace in 311 concerts. On Sundays during football season, she can be found cheering on the New Orleans Saints with her husband and two daughters. Who Dat! She loves to read but usually settles for a pop culture podcast, and thinks the best weekends are spent cooking and playing cards with friends and family, preferably with some UFC fights or other sporting event on TV.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Football season, Pumpkin Spice Lattes and everything related to fall and cooler weather. The Game of Roses podcast and all things The Bachelor, and new episodes of Grey&#039;s Anatomy, Love Is Blind, The Voice, OMITB and more.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                            <article>
                                <p>It’s <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/does-candace-cameron-bure-get-tired-filming-christmas-movies-weird-my-job-christmas-24-7">Christmas all year long</a> for Candace Cameron Bure and other actors who are set to appear on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/upcoming-christmas-movie-schedule-streaming-and-tv-dates">2025 holiday movie schedule</a>. So, after she bundled up to shoot those films during the hot summer months, who could blame her for grabbing her swimsuit and posting pics from the beach? However, you won’t find those images on her social media anymore, because she quickly took them down and then explained why.</p><p>The <em>Full House</em> alum took to her <a href="https://www.instagram.com/candacecbure/">Instagram</a> story to answer some questions from her followers, and one query involved some photos that were no longer showing up on Candace Cameron Bure’s page. The Great American Family actress got real with the fan, who asked if she had posted a bikini pic and then deleted it, responding:</p><div><blockquote><p>Yes. I was at the beach. I was in a one piece, not a bikini. I am soaking up the end of summer. I was having fun. It wasn't about my bathing suit or my body. But the comments became flooded with people discussing my body. It wasn't worth it. I took it down.</p></blockquote></div><p>Candace Cameron Bure was just trying to share some light summer moments by giving people a glimpse into her beach excursion. However, it sounds like some fans were missing the intent of the post, choosing to comment about her body. Clearly uncomfortable with what was happening, she ended the conversation by removing the pics.</p><p>The actress has dealt with scrutiny about her body for pretty much her entire life, after skyrocketing to fame as D.J. Tanner on <em>Full House</em> at the age of 11. Her changing body was even written into the show, with one Season 4 episode showing the teen going to unhealthy lengths to lose weight for a pool party. </p><p>It’s an episode that makes her former co-stars <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/full-house-jodie-sweetin-andrea-barber-dj-episode-makes-them-uncomfortable">Jodie Sweetin and Andrea Barber uncomfortable</a>, and rightly so, as it seems nearly 35 years later, Bure is still having to deal with the public’s unkind musings.</p><p>Candace Cameron Bure has spoken about the issue before, saying that while she’s a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-gets-candid-about-hateful-messages-she-gets-about-aging-her-looks-on-daily-basis">middle-aged woman who can deal with the “daily” hate</a> she receives, we need to think about how seeing comments like that affects younger women, teens and even our children. </p><p>Because even though the actress can deal with the adversity now — which definitely sometimes means just deleting the post — she has struggled to not take others’ opinions to heart, opening up about <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-teared-up-over-how-harsh-shes-been-on-her-body-what-it-took-to-change">how “harsh” she’s been on her body</a> as a woman in Hollywood.</p><p>After so many years of dealing with this, it’s pretty easy to see why the <em>Fuller House</em> star would rather delete her beach photos than watch a narrative unfold in the comments about her body. </p><p>If you want to see more of Candace Cameron Bure, she’s got a couple of movies coming to GAF this Christmas, and you can always catch her on <em>Full House</em>, which is streaming with a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2570844/subscribing-to-hulu-the-price-whats-included-and-everything-else-to-know">Hulu subscription</a>, or its spinoff, <em>Fuller House</em>, which is available with a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/netflix-subscription-the-plans-the-price-and-whats-included">Netflix subscription</a>.</p>

She has worked at multiple entertainment outlets, including as a Writer and Editor at Nerds and Beyond, TV and Movie News Writer at CBR, and a Freelance Writer at TV Fanatic, writing about topics she&#039;s passionate about like pop culture. She graduated from the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh with a degree in Multimedia Journalism in 2020, writing for the school’s newspaper during her time there. Her expertise in entertainment is mainly in television, but she has written about movies, music, and local events as well.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What They&#039;re Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Megan specializes in television writing, particularly procedurals. 9-1-1 and the Chicago Franchise are currently her favorites, where she can be found obsessively watching the latest episode or coming up with theories. She also loves to listen to music, with Taylor Swift being on the top of her playlist. She isn’t a huge sports person but will occasionally root for the Green Bay Packers, Milwaukee Brewers, and Wisconsin Badgers. As for movies, it’s hard to pick a favorite, but the Marvel Cinematic Universe reigns as her favorite franchise. She used to be a book nerd in grade school, with her favorite genre being fantasy or YA. Her favorite snack is sour cream and onion Pringles, while pizza is her all-time favorite food.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                                <p>Candace Cameron Bure continues to solidify her position as the queen of Great American Family on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2025-tv-premiere-date-schedule-upcoming-new-returning-shows">2025 TV schedule</a>. Since the <em>Full House </em>star made the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/hallmark-stars-who-left-for-gac-family-and-who-are-definitely-staying">switch from Hallmark to GAF</a>, she's been making her mark. Not only has Bure been starring in films on GAF, but she’s also been producing and directing some of them. Additionally, <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/hallmarks-new-aurora-teagarden-actress-reveals-whether-she-reached-out-to-candace-cameron-bure-after-landing-the-role">following her turn in the <em>Aurora Teagarden</em> films</a> on Hallmark, <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/see-candace-cameron-bure-wrap-new-mystery-series-after-leaving-aurora-teagarden">Bure has found another mystery film series</a> to lead, <em>Ainsley McGregor Mysteries</em>. She was just asked about another potential installment, and she had a hopeful response.</p><p>Bure stars in 2024's <em>The Ainsley McGregor Mysteries: A Case for the Winemaker </em>and earlier this year, she headlined another <em>Ainsley</em> flick, <em>A Case for the Yarn Maker</em>, based on Candace Havens' books of the same name. The series focuses on the titular protagonist, who's a former criminologist. Although there's yet to be official confirmation of another film in the series, Bure expressed optimism when responding to a fan via her <a href="https://www.instagram.com/candacecbure/">Instagram</a> stories about a potential threequel:</p><figure class="van-image-figure  inline-layout" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style="max-width:1280px;"><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:178.98%;"><img id="j982vHGKqtdf6yWs9qmX5R" name="candace cameron bure ig story" alt="Candace Cameron Bure's Instagram story" src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/j982vHGKqtdf6yWs9qmX5R.jpg" mos="" align="middle" fullscreen="" width="1280" height="2291" attribution="" endorsement="" class=""></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=" inline-layout"><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: Instagram)</span></figcaption></figure><p>As you can see in the photo above, Candace Cameron Bure appears alongside some of her castmates from the mystery film series. I don't know if we can take that as a firm "yes." However, considering Bure is apparently hanging with her co-stars and shared the "I spy" caption, it feels like something is cooking! Now, I just have questions about what might be on the horizon.</p><p>I mean, if a third <em>Ainsley McGregor Mysteries</em> movie is on the way, what will it be about? Will it be a direct adaptation of another one of the books or an original idea? Regardless, I'm just thrilled that Bure and co. seem to be getting back into it. </p><p>There are five books in Candace Havens' series, and the films are seemingly being adapted in order, meaning that 2020’s <em>A Case for the Toy Maker </em>would be next to be adapted. That particular story is a Christmas-centered tale. If it’s indeed being adapted and filmed, it would make sense for the film to come out around the holidays. And it seems like there is snow in the picture that Bure posted. Of course, I won't get too ahead of myself, as I could be way off here. Still, I'm liking the idea of sitting back in a sweater and drinking hot chocolate while watching an <em>Ainsley</em> holiday movie.</p><p>Meanwhile, with <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-admits-its-the-most-wonderful-time-of-the-year-to-already-be-filming-a-christmas-movie">Bure recently filming yet another Christmas movie</a>, fans will likely have much to look forward to come the holiday season. The yuletide would be even more festive if another <em>Ainsley McGregor Mysteries</em> movie were to be released.</p><p>Hopefully, concrete information on a supposed third <em>Ainsley McGregor Mysteries </em>film will be revealed soon, if it is actually happening. I know I'll be keeping my eyes peeled on Candace Cameron Bure's social media accounts for any additional nuggets or teases. In the meantime, know that there's more to <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-admits-its-the-most-wonderful-time-of-the-year-to-already-be-filming-a-christmas-movie">look forward to from Bure on GAF</a> in general in the near future.</p>

                                <p>For 33 seasons now, audiences have enjoyed seeing professional dancers pair up with celebrities from reality TV, the world of sports, and our favorite TV shows and movies for <em>Dancing with the Stars</em>. That includes some current and former Hallmark actors like Candace Cameron Bure, and ahead of Season 34 hitting the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2025-tv-premiere-date-schedule-upcoming-new-returning-shows">2025 TV schedule</a>, another has thrown his hat in the ring (for a really sweet reason).</p><p>Victor Webster recently appeared in his fourth <em>Hannah Swensen </em>movie — <em>Pie to Die For</em> — on Hallmark Mystery, in which he and Alison Sweeney (Hannah Swensen herself) had to do the tango. While his co-star picked up the choreography quicker than him, Webster told <a href="https://entertainmentnow.com/hallmark/victor-webster-would-do-dancing-with-the-stars/">EntertainmentNow</a>, he ended up really enjoying himself. He had so much fun that he said he’d even go on <em>Dancing with the Stars</em> — but there’s a deeper reason why. The actor explained:</p><div><blockquote><p>You know why I would do it? I’m not a reality TV guy, and that’s more of a competition show, but my goddaughter wants me to be on that show so badly. Like, once a month (she asks), ‘Will you go? Will you go on?’ Like, I can’t just snap my fingers, sweetheart, and then be on ‘Dancing with the Stars!’ But if somebody asked me to do it? For her, I would.</p></blockquote></div><p>It’s absolutely adorable that Victor Webster would take time away from filming his <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2568036/upcoming-hallmark-movies-full-list-of-new-titles-and-premiere-dates">upcoming Hallmark movies</a> to make his goddaughter, Eden, so happy. It doesn’t seem out of the question, either, as other Hallmark actors have been on the ABC dance competition.</p><figure class="van-image-figure  inline-layout" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style="max-width:1280px;"><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:56.25%;"><img id="q2y77DStAUP5voDLsE39Be" name="victor webster David Astorga" alt="Victor Webster as Chad dips Alison Sweeney's Hannah in Pie to Die For: A Hannah Swensen Mystery." src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/q2y77DStAUP5voDLsE39Be.jpg" mos="" align="middle" fullscreen="" width="1280" height="720" attribution="" endorsement="" class=""></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=" inline-layout"><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: David Astorga/Hallmark)</span></figcaption></figure><p>Before Candace Cameron Bure, Danica McKellar and Trevor Donovan <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/hallmark-stars-who-left-for-gac-family-and-who-are-definitely-staying">left Hallmark for Great American Family</a>, they vied for the Mirrorball Trophy on <em>Dancing with the Stars</em>. Bure and McKellar were even on the same season together — Season 18 — where McKellar was eliminated sixth but Bure made it all the way to third place. No wonder she continues to <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-supporting-former-dancing-with-the-stars-co-stars-napa-valley-trip">support the <em>DWTS</em> pros.</a> Trevor Donovan, meanwhile, competed on Season 31 and was eliminated 10th.</p><p>Jesse Metcalfe, who starred in a handful of Hallmark movies as well as the series <em>Chesapeake Shores</em>, danced in Season 29, where he had a relatively short run and was sent home fourth.</p><p>It’s a bit surprising that Hallmark queen Lacey Chabert has never taken a turn on the dance floor, and fans definitely wanted to <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2557013/hallmarks-lacey-chabert-should-join-dwts-after-these-waltz-oriented-looks-at-her-new-christmas-movie">see her on DWTS after <em>Christmas Waltz</em></a>, where she showed off her skills with Will Kemp. She and Kemp even <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/lacey-chaberts-reuniting-with-her-christmas-waltz-co-star-for-another-hallmark-movie-and-its-so-on-pointe">reunited for <em>The Dancing Detective: A Deadly Tango</em></a> and then <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/lacey-chaberts-merry-scottish-christmas-movie-surprise-cameo-will-kemp-hallmark-exchange">shared a dance in <em>A Merry Scottish Christmas</em></a>.</p><p>We can continue to hold out hope that Lacey Chabert will answer <em>Dancing with the Stars</em>’ calls, but in the meantime we’ve got Victor Webster ready to go! Will we see him when the competition returns this fall? It’s impossible to say, because as of this writing we only know that <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/after-alix-earle-posted-hilarious-attempt-viral-tiktok-dance-dancing-with-the-stars-pros-sweetest-comments">DWTS Season 34 will include social media star Alix Earle</a> and wildlife conservationist Robert Irwin (whose sister Bindi won Season 21). </p><p>While we wait for more celebrities to be announced, you can catch Victor Webster in <em>A Hannah Swensen Mystery: Pie to Die For</em> and other movies on Hallmark+.</p>

                                <p>It’s been enjoyable as someone who grew up watching <em>Full House</em> (and still streams it with my <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2570432/subscribing-to-hbo-max-what-to-know-about-the-price-options-and-what-the-streaming-service-offers">Max subscription</a>) to see how close its cast remains after all these years. Candace Cameron Bure has a particularly special bond with Dave Coulier, and there’s a good reason — it turns out he introduced her to her husband! This bit of Tanner trivia had eluded me until now, and I can’t get over their sweet social media exchange as Bure celebrated her 29th wedding anniversary.</p><p>Candace Cameron Bure — who continues to appear on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2025-tv-premiere-date-schedule-upcoming-new-returning-shows">2025 TV schedule</a> as part of Great American Family’s slate of movies — posted a tribute to her husband Valeri Bure in celebration of nearly three decades of marriage. She was also sure to thank her former co-star for making it all possible. In an <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DLOGLm6hqiR?img_index=1">Instagram post</a>, she wrote:</p><div><blockquote><p>31 years ago we went on our first official date at his practice rink in Fredericton, New Brunswick. [Dave Coulier] introduced us at a charity hockey game in Los Angeles 4 months earlier. 30 years ago on June 20th, we got engaged in Paris. 29 years ago today, June 22nd, we got married. We grew a beautiful family ❤️❤️❤️. Happy anniversary to my love and best friend forever ♥️ 🥂. And this was the song for our first dance 🥰.</p></blockquote></div><p>Dave Coulier — who played the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/full-house-dave-coulier-reveals-origin-joey-last-name-tanner-family-disapprove">hilariously named Joey Gladstone</a> on <em>Full House</em>, who moved in to help best friend Danny Tanner (Bob Saget) raise his three daughters — seemed to appreciate the shout-out, but he took no credit as he referenced <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2569751/internet-sleuthing-candace-cameron-bure-share-full-house-met-valeri-husband">the night the Bures met</a>, as he responded:</p><div><blockquote><p>I am SO PROUD of the life you two have built together. And to think that the incredible world of hockey brought it all together. Love you both so much!</p></blockquote></div><p>Why do I feel like the love between these two friends is almost overshadowing her wedding anniversary? No, I’m just kidding (mostly), but Dave Coulier does appear to be the only non-family member to make the cut in Candace Cameron Bure’s post of throwback photos. Check him out on the second slide:</p><div class="instagram-embed"><blockquote class="instagram-media"  data-instgrm-version="6" style="width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DLOGLm6hqiR/" target="_blank">A post shared by Candace Cameron Bure (@candacecbure)</a></p><p>A photo posted by  on </p></blockquote></div><p>These pics are so adorable, and 20-year-old CCB and her 22-year-old groom look like babies in their wedding attire! It’s cute to see them celebrating their love alongside their three children (and Dave Coulier) throughout the years.</p><p>Given the huge role that her <em>Full House</em> co-star played in her personal life, it makes even more sense why Candace Cameron Bure said <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opened-up-about-dave-coulier-cancer-diagnosis">Dave Coulier’s cancer diagnosis was “devastating”</a> for her. Thankfully, the comedian has since <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-dave-coulier-wholesome-exchange-after-announced-cancer-free-poopoo-nickname">announced that he’s cancer-free</a> — a fact that was celebrated loud and proud by the oldest of the Tanner daughters.</p><p>Twenty-nine years is quite the accomplishment for Valeri and Candace Cameron Bure, as is the actress’ 39-year friendship with Dave Coulier and the other stars of <em>Full House</em>. If you want to relive that heartwarming Tanner family goodness, <em>Full House</em> is available to stream on Max or with a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2570844/subscribing-to-hulu-the-price-whats-included-and-everything-else-to-know">Hulu subscription</a>. You can also catch most of the gang — including Bure and Coulier — on the spinoff <em>Fuller House</em> with your <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/netflix-subscription-the-plans-the-price-and-whats-included">Netflix subscription</a>.</p>

                                <p><em>Full House</em>’s original run on ABC may have ended nearly 30 years ago, but it remains a beloved family sitcom (with a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/retro-tv-theme-songs-that-still-slap">pretty catchy theme song</a>). There are several possible reasons the show has stood the test of time, and cast members have discussed this for  years. Candace Cameron Bure has her own unique theory involving Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, as she made a rare comment about her on-screen sisters.</p><p>Candace Cameron Bure was a guest on the <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/unmasked-with-candace-cameron-bure/id1658407772?i=1000712236550"><em>Hey Dude… The 90s Called</em> podcast</a>, where she discussed why her sitcom gained the popularity that others (including hosts David Lascher and Christine Taylor’s <em>Hey Dude</em>) did not. Bure pointed out that <em>Full House</em> broke the mold in a big way with the Olsen twins, saying:</p><div><blockquote><p>We were one of the first people to have a baby on the show that actually stayed a baby, like, grew up on the show. Because usually they have, like, a baby and then cut to a 5-year-old. It was the first show that had Mary-Kate and Ashley on at 9 months old and they stayed on the show for eight years, so you literally saw them grow up. </p></blockquote></div><p>It seems so simple, but it’s a great point. Usually, when there’s a baby on a series, you may continue to see that character, but the actor (or actors) portraying them change as the baby gets older. For the Olsen twins, we saw them at 9 months, and they grew naturally with the show for eight years.</p><p>The Great American Family actress also said the non-traditional family aspect struck a chord with viewers — three girls being raised without a mom (by one of the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/movie-tv-dads-we-would-be-proud-to-have">best TV dads</a> ever) resonated with families without two parents or with kids living with grandparents, etc. There’s also the fact that Candace Cameron Bure found <em>Full House</em> — available to stream with a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2570844/subscribing-to-hulu-the-price-whats-included-and-everything-else-to-know">Hulu subscription</a> or <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2570432/subscribing-to-hbo-max-what-to-know-about-the-price-options-and-what-the-streaming-service-offers">Max subscription</a> — “so sweet” when she <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-watched-full-house-understand-whyshows-not-off-air-35-years">watched for the first time in ages</a>.</p><p>The actress went on to talk about her relationship with Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen and admitted that despite playing sisters on TV for eight years, they don’t talk all that often. In CCB’s words:</p><div><blockquote><p>I haven’t talked to them. We don’t keep in touch often. Like once a year, it’s like the anniversary of [Bob Saget’s] death, which sounds so morbid, but it’s beautiful in that we kind of always have a text moment. It’s about once a year, but other than that, they’re really private people. </p></blockquote></div><p>While Candace Cameron Bure can still be found in projects on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2025-tv-premiere-date-schedule-upcoming-new-returning-shows">2025 TV schedule</a>, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/child-actors-that-left-hollywood-behind-and-what-happened-to-them">left Hollywood behind them</a> and became big players in the fashion industry. The 10-year age difference between the actresses is also a valid reason for the TV sisters not keeping in touch. </p><p>While Bure was a young adult when <em>Full House</em> ended, the Olsen sisters were just 8 (even younger than Bure when FH started), and <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/full-houses-jodie-sweetin-shared-the-best-reasoning-for-why-the-olsen-twins-didnt-return-for-netflixs-fuller-house">Jodie Sweetin made a really good point</a> when she asked how much anybody remembers about life before 8 years old?</p><p>Still, Candace Cameron Bure called Mary-Kate and Ashley “lovely people” and said when they all <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/bob-sagets-pals-had-a-punk-rock-shiva-after-his-fancy-funeral-with-dave-chapelle-john-mayer-what-looks-to-be-the-olsen-twins-and-more">reunited for Bob Saget’s funeral</a>, it was “so comfortable” being around them: “Like picking up wherever it left off.”</p><p>Sounds like real-life sisters to me!</p>

                            <article>
                                <p>Decades after playing the oldest Tanner sister on the beloved sitcom <em>Full House</em>, Candace Cameron Bure continues to appear on our screens. In addition to her Great American Family movies that you can find on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2025-tv-premiere-date-schedule-upcoming-new-returning-shows">2025 TV schedule</a>, she has appeared on <em>Dancing with the Stars</em> and <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-how-bob-saget-impacted-decision-join-the-masked-singer">conquered her fear of singing in front of people</a> on <em>The Masked Singer</em>. Given her recent comments on “demonic” scary movies, however, I think it’s safe to say that’s one genre we won’t be seeing her in.</p><p>The topic of horror movies came up on <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/is-watching-a-scary-movie-opening-a-spiritual/id1649600581?i=1000712214582"><em>The Candace Cameron Bure Podcast</em></a>, and the eponymous host did not mince words as she talked about some forms of media being a “portal” for dark forces. In her words:</p><div><blockquote><p>Like if you’re watching this, or you’re playing this video game, or whatever, that’s a portal that could let stuff inside our home. I don’t even want someone watching a scary movie in our house on the TV, because to me, that’s just a portal.</p></blockquote></div><p>Candace Cameron Bure has <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/following-backlash-over-comments-candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-about-faith-and-filming-christmas-movies">talked openly about her faith</a>, and she often takes a conservative point of view when it comes to the entertainment industry — including <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-backlash-after-she-mentioned-husband-didnt-like-her-kiss-other-people-movies">her (and her husband’s) feelings on kissing other men</a> in movies. The fact that she’s so familiar with the behind-the-scenes of it all does not change her views on the scary stuff. She continued:</p><div><blockquote><p>Listen, I’m in the film industry. I understand how it all works. I know that movie specifically has a crew of 200 people, and they’re lighting it, and they’re adding the sound effects, and it’s makeup, and camera people and actors. However, there’s still something that can be incredibly demonic while they’ve made it, and I feel like it’s a portal that gets opened up and let in.</p></blockquote></div><p>The actress seems comfortable staying firmly in the family-friendly lane, so I definitely won’t be looking for her name in any <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/news/2554980/upcoming-horror-movies-all-the-scary-movies-coming-out-2020-2021">upcoming horror movies</a>. Fans will, however, be able to see her again this Christmas, as she’s <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-admits-its-the-most-wonderful-time-of-the-year-to-already-be-filming-a-christmas-movie">already started filming for the upcoming holiday season</a>. </p><p>Candace Cameron Bure has talked about what it’s like <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-shared-look-filming-her-first-post-hallmark-movie-for-gaf-and-she-looks-hot-literally">filming Christmas movies in the summer heat</a> (and honestly, if I had to wear jackets and scarves in the summer months, I’d probably be so unpleasant that you’d think I was a demonic portal). She admits that it’s <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/does-candace-cameron-bure-get-tired-filming-christmas-movies-weird-my-job-christmas-24-7">“weird” that her job is Christmas 24/7</a>, but said it doesn’t keep her from still loving the holiday.</p><p>In fact, she’s set to star in (at least) two GAF Christmas films later this year. In <em>Timeless Tidings of Joy</em>, CCB will play Ally, who inherits her grandmother’s shop, with her daughter Natasha Bure portraying a young version of her grandmother Joy. A second movie with the working title <em>Home Sweet Christmas Wedding</em> reunites her with Cameron Mathison for a sequel to 2024’s <em>Home Sweet Christmas</em>. </p><p>That’s sure to make Candace Cameron Bure’s fans happy, as well as the actress, as she stays away from scarier projects she wouldn’t be comfortable with. Keep an eye out for premiere dates for her GAF movies later this year.</p>

                                <p>Sitcoms of the 1980s and ‘90s were rife with teen icons who continue to be vital parts of the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2025-tv-premiere-date-schedule-upcoming-new-returning-shows">2025 TV schedule</a> decades later. <em>Full House</em>, <em>Family Matters</em>, <em>Friends</em> and so many more are among the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/most-rewatchable-tv-shows-ever">most rewatchable series</a>, and Candace Cameron Bure just blew my mind with a throwback post showing so many young actors of that era — Danica McKellar, Jennifer Aniston, Jaleel White and more — sharing the screen on a ‘90s TV movie.</p><p>If you were a kid in 1990, you might remember <em>Camp Cucamonga</em> — aka the “zaniest, most hilarious summer vacation ever” — which aired on NBC. If this ‘90s gem passed you by, though, get ready for a smack of nostalgia that’ll knock you out of your high-tops, as Candace Cameron Bure shared the following pics and videos to Instagram:</p><div class="instagram-embed"><blockquote class="instagram-media"  data-instgrm-version="6" style="width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DKkwkWihH2U/" target="_blank">A post shared by Candace Cameron Bure (@candacecbure)</a></p><p>A photo posted by  on </p></blockquote></div><p>That group picture is like a who’s who of stars of the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/100-best-tv-sitcoms-of-all-time-ranked">best sitcoms of all time</a>. In addition to the <em>Full House</em> star, you’ve got <em>Cheers</em> star John Ratzenberger, Sherman Hemsley of <em>All in the Family</em> and its <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/tv-spin-offs-that-were-as-good-or-better-than-the-show-they-came-from">just-as-good spinoff</a> <em>The Jeffersons</em>, Danica McKellar and Josh Saviano from <em>The Wonder Years</em>, Jennifer Aniston four years before she found fame on <em>Friends</em>, <em>Family Matters</em>’ Jaleel White, Chad Allen of <em>My Two Dads</em>, Breckin Meyer and so many more. </p><p>That last name was of particular interest to Kelly Rizzo, the widow of Candace Cameron Bure’s <em>Full House</em> co-star, Bob Saget, who is now dating the <em>Clueless</em> actor. Rizzo commented:</p><div><blockquote><p>Love this! And omg Breckin Meyer 😁😁😁 </p></blockquote></div><p>She wasn’t the only one of CCB’s <em>Full House</em> family to weigh in, as Dave Coulier’s wife, Melissa, clearly remembered <em>Camp Cucamonga</em>, calling it:</p><div><blockquote><p>One of my favs!!</p></blockquote></div><p>Why am I having so much FOMO over a fictional camp? As wild as it is to see so many of those actors in the same photo, I also can’t get over the videos! Candace Cameron Bure shared behind-the-scenes footage of the cast practicing their dance moves (I need to brush up on my “Running Man” skills) and just goofing off between scenes.</p><p>We even get a clip of Candace Cameron Bure’s Amber getting shown up by Danica McKellar’s Lindsey when the former wasn’t able to get her moves right. That was the slide that probably stuck out the most to Jen Lilley, who — like Bure and McKellar — <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/hallmark-stars-who-left-for-gac-family-and-who-are-definitely-staying">left Hallmark for Great American Family</a>. Lilley tagged McKellar as she commented:</p><div><blockquote><p>I am dying! How did I not know this gem existed 😂😂😂😂 I LOVE YOU ALL!</p></blockquote></div><p>The <em>Wonder Years</em> star was also feeling the nostalgia, as she wrote in CCB’s comments:</p><div><blockquote><p>Wow, memories...!! 😁</p></blockquote></div><p>This post is simply full of memories, and I’m astonished to think of all of these actors not just sharing the screen for the 1990 TV movie but hanging out and having what must have been like an actual summer camp of their own! Unfortunately, <em>Camp Cucamonga</em> doesn’t appear to be available to stream so, hopefully, you’ve still got your recorded-from-TV VHS version lying around somewhere.</p>

                                <p>As the seasons get warmer for many of us, long gone are the days of fluffy white snow, festive sweaters and holiday parties. However, that’s not the case for Candace Cameron Bure; she’s <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-admits-its-the-most-wonderful-time-of-the-year-to-already-be-filming-a-christmas-movie"><u>already filmed a new Christmas movie</u></a>, and she is working on another that will appear on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2025-tv-premiere-date-schedule-upcoming-new-returning-shows">2025 TV schedule</a>. The jolly schedule isn’t new, though. The ​​<a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/former-child-stars-who-are-still-acting-today"><u>former child star</u></a> has long been working the Hallmark and now Great American Family holiday scene, and continuously holds that twinkle in her eye year-round. And the TV movie royalty just shared her feelings about <em>staying</em> in the spirit. </p><p>Bure (who <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-about-hallmark-exit-and-what-she-loves-about-gaf">famously switched to GAF</a> a few years ago) shared some BTS content of the latest flick on her <a href="https://www.instagram.com/candacecbure/?hl=en"><u>Instagram</u></a> stories, along with some clips of her answering common questions. This included her addressing the biggest question many of her DM’ers asked–does it feel like St. Nick is knocking on her door every day, and does it bore her? </p><p>Her response showcased that all five months of 2025 have been X-mas packed, as she explained: </p><div><blockquote><p>Lots of people asked if I feel like I’m in Christmas season all the time and like love it or get tired of it?  ‘Cause let’s see, we’re in May and I’ve already shot two Christmas movies. I shot one in March/April, Timeless Tidings of Joy, and now I’m shooting a Christmas movie right now, and I just feel like I finished Christmas, you know, four months ago.</p></blockquote></div><p>Wow! The <em>Full House </em>alum really lives, breaths, sleeps and repeats the winter celebration well past the season. It does make sense, though, considering how many holiday movies she's in each year. Plus, she’s one of the many Hallmark and GAF stars to discuss the ins and outs of <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-shared-look-filming-her-first-post-hallmark-movie-for-gaf-and-she-looks-hot-literally"><u>filming Christmas movies in the heat</u></a>, so we know that this festive work happens at all times of the year. </p><p>Even with the day-in and day-out schedule, Bure said she has nothing but love for the end-of-year holiday. She did reveal that she can separate the actual big show from the fictitious sets she’s on and is thrilled that sunnier days lie ahead. Along with it, she did note that the second flick’s location actually caters to December-esque weather:</p><div><blockquote><p>I never get sick of Christmas. I love Christmas. But as much as it’s Christmas-y on set I think I compartmentalize. I know it’s not the Christmas season and all I want is summertime right now. I’m so focused on summer and it’s actually not hot where we’re shooting. I’m not like dying in a sweater and a coat. It’s actually very cold on this Christmas movie.</p></blockquote></div><p>I’m glad this set is refreshingly appropriate for sweaters, coats and other winter essentials. The thought of anyone sweating through multiple layers in the summer while in a parka makes me dizzy just thinking about it!</p><p>The <em>Fuller House </em>star then outlined how she stays cheery about Christmas, essentially 365 days a year, without tiring. Basically, it boils down to her recognizing that the cozy holiday comfort movie jobs are just that, a job. Summer is also her big motivator in helping anchor that idea to the ground, as she said:</p><div><blockquote><p>So the answer is I’m pretending like it’s not really Christmas even though I’m shooting Christmas and I have summer on the brain. All I want is heat and sunshine.  … I’m waiting to wrap Christmas so I can enjoy the summer and get back to the heat. But then to get a little break from Christmas that allows me to enjoy when the real Christmas comes about. Anyway, it’s weird that my job is about Christmas 24/7.</p></blockquote></div><p>Keeping the two apart in her head makes a lot of sense. Each season brings such a different vibe to the table, and if Bure were to walk into June with a December feel, things would probably get weird quickly. I’m glad that she’s nailed that rule down in her head, because it all adds to the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/hallmark-producers-secrets-filming-christmas-movies-fake-snow-hot-actors-candace-cameron-bure"><u>Christmas movie-making magic</u></a> for Hallmark and GAF. </p><p>It’s great that Candace Cameron Bure enjoys working like an elf for us all year to make these wonderful Christmas films and does not tire of the December 25th holiday. Her festive spirit is appreciated at all times of the year, and it makes me extra excited for the upcoming holiday season!</p>

She has worked at multiple entertainment outlets, including as a Writer and Editor at Nerds and Beyond, TV and Movie News Writer at CBR, and a Freelance Writer at TV Fanatic, writing about topics she&#039;s passionate about like pop culture.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What They&#039;re Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Megan specializes in television writing, particularly procedurals. 9-1-1 and the Chicago Franchise are currently her favorites, where she can be found obsessively watching the latest episode or coming up with theories. She also loves to listen to music, with Taylor Swift being on the top of her playlist. She isn’t a huge sports person but will occasionally root for the Green Bay Packers, Milwaukee Brewers, and Wisconsin Badgers. As for movies, it’s hard to pick a favorite, but the Marvel Cinematic Universe reigns as her favorite franchise. She used to be a book nerd in grade school, with her favorite genre being fantasy or YA. Her favorite snack is sour cream and onion Pringles, while pizza is her all-time favorite food.&lt;/p&gt;

                                <p>Even though it’s only May, it’s never too early to start thinking about the holiday season heading to the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2025-tv-premiere-date-schedule-upcoming-new-returning-shows">2025 TV schedule</a>. Drinking hot chocolate, maybe wrapping up in a blanket as the snow falls, and watching some cheesy Christmas movies is a highlight of the season. However, for the stars of such movies, filming usually comes at a very different time of the year. Bure has spoken out about <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-shared-look-filming-her-first-post-hallmark-movie-for-gaf-and-she-looks-hot-literally">filming Christmas movies in the heat </a>before, and according to her most recent post, the most wonderful time of the year has come early again.  </p><p>Seriously, Bure is no stranger to getting into the holiday spirit months in advance. She’s been filming Christmas movies for over 10 years now, with a chunk of them going to Hallmark before she <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-about-hallmark-exit-and-what-she-loves-about-gaf">famously switched to GAF</a>.  Bure’s long been the Queen of Christmas, and she <a href="https://www.instagram.com/candacecbure/">took to her Instagram Stories</a> to share photos from the set of her newest film.  She seemed to be all set for cold weather even though it’s still spring (and hot in many places already). </p><figure class="van-image-figure  inline-layout" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style="max-width:1280px;"><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:175.86%;"><img id="zLFARxM8iM6JLSUqSahA2Y" name="burechristmas1" alt="Candace Cameron Bure wearing a winter jacket on her Instagram Stories." src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/zLFARxM8iM6JLSUqSahA2Y.jpg" mos="" align="middle" fullscreen="" width="1280" height="2251" attribution="" endorsement="" class=""></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=" inline-layout"><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: Candace Cameron Bure)</span></figcaption></figure><p>It may be hard to get into the Christmas spirit when it's May, but when you’ve been doing this for as long as Bure, you're likely used to it. And pro? It’s basically like Santa comes twice a year. </p><p>Plus, it probably also helps to get into the holiday spirit when Christmas decorations and <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/thought-snow-hallmark-movies-fake-story-behind-three-wiser-men-and-a-boy">what I thought was fake snow but isn't</a> always is being trucked in. Bure shared another photo to her Stories, posing in front of a trailer that is decked out in holly and all the decorations, and I am loving how into it everyone gets:</p><figure class="van-image-figure  inline-layout" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style="max-width:1280px;"><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:175.47%;"><img id="UigUX2wqczTgKskDKTXe4j" name="burechristmas2" alt="Candace Cameron Bure posing in front of a trailer with Christmas decorations on her Instagram Stories." src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/UigUX2wqczTgKskDKTXe4j.jpg" mos="" align="middle" fullscreen="" width="1280" height="2246" attribution="" endorsement="" class=""></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=" inline-layout"><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: Candace Cameron Bure)</span></figcaption></figure><p>There are few details about the holiday movie Bure is filming, but more information about it should be released in the coming months. Whatever it is will surely get fans into the holiday spirit, as it’s doing for her already. Whether or not she will be filming more for this year remains to be seen, but it’s likely if she’s filming another one, it will be in even warmer weather. I wish her luck. </p><p>Some stars on Bure’s former home network, Hallmark, have opened up about what it’s really like filming a holiday movie in the summer, with <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/major-hallmark-star-sharing-christmas-in-july-secrets-paul-greene">Paul Greene previously admitting he had to pretend it was cold</a> when it was sweltering. As I noted prior, Bure herself has also looked pretty hot (literally) while filming Christmas movies when it is far from cold, but she has managed the inconvenience well.</p><p>One of the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/hallmark-producers-secrets-filming-christmas-movies-fake-snow-hot-actors-candace-cameron-bure">secrets of filming Christmas movie </a>is that they are filmed earlier in the year for a holiday season release (outside of the handful that are part of Christmas in July.   That being said, it will be exciting to see what Bure is cooking up for the upcoming holiday season later this year.</p>

                                                                <dc:description><![CDATA[ &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Background&lt;/strong&gt;: Nick Venable is an Assistant Managing Editor, and the TV Editor. His humble origin story with CinemaBlend began all the way back in the pre-streaming era, circa 2009, as a freelancing DVD reviewer and TV recapper. After rising up through the ranks covering Movies, Nick leapfrogged over to the small screen to cover more and more television news and interviews, eventually taking over the section for the current era. Born in Louisiana and currently living in Texas — Who Dat Nation over America’s Team all day, all night — Nick spent several years in the hospitality industry, and also worked as a 911 operator. And if you ever happened to hear his music or read his comics/short stories, you have his sympathy. His love for his wife and daughters is almost equaled by his love of gasp-for-breath laughter and gasp-for-breath horror. A lifetime spent in the vicinity of a television screen led to his current dream job, as well as his knowledge of too many TV themes and ad jingles.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Nick is one of those people who won’t necessarily insert a Monty Python reference into every conversation, but is still mentally equipped to do so. Beyond such appreciation for surreal UK comedy, Nick also indulges in as much horror splendor as possible, from Stephen King novels to James Tynion IV comics to Freddy Krueger one-liners to all things Mike Flanagan. Throw in a dash of NFL, some 311 and Weird Al, fried crawfish poboys, bourbon, ‘90s-era pro wrestling, crossword puzzles and mystery-driven video games, and baby, you got a stew going. (Nick will insert an Arrested Development reference into every conversation, if possible.)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He&#039;s Excited About&lt;/strong&gt;: Anything Jeff Lemire, Tom King and W. Maxwell Prince think of, ever. More of Kelly Reilly’s deliriously fierce performances on Yellowstone. HBO’s The Last of Us. Clone High’s return. Colin Farrell’s Penguin being in every movie/TV show/breakfast cereal.&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>In the years since hanging up her Tanner family duds with <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2547793/fuller-house-all-the-biggest-full-house-callbacks-from-the-final-netflix-episodes"><em>Fuller House</em>’s easter egg-filled final season</a>, Candace Cameron Bure has largely stayed busy building up her career as a multi-hyphenate creative for Great American Media and kicking off a new cozy movie mystery franchise as Ainsley McGregor. (Not to mention <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-how-bob-saget-impacted-decision-join-the-masked-singer">performing on <em>The Masked Singer</em> to honor Bob Saget</a>.) She’s also been as active as ever on social media, and opened up about the age-related negativity she’s faced online.</p><p>Taking to <a href="https://www.instagram.com/stories/candacecbure/3635988168605708940/">Instagram Stories</a>, where the day before she’d shared her thoughts on Sunday’s sermon, Bure posted a pic of a DM sent by a fan (for lack of a better word) who sent a screengrab of the actress talking, with the following message attached:</p><ul><li><em><strong>"U look really old here...not aging well???"</strong></em></li></ul><p>Bure surprisingly left the person's name publicized as part of her post, and also shared her own reaction to the message, which was essentially to point out that it's far from the only example in her inbox. As she put it:</p><div><blockquote><p>I received countless messages like this on the daily. As much as I love connecting on social media, this is one of the downfalls. I'm a middle age woman and can handle rude people. Imagine how this affects our children.</p></blockquote></div><p>It wasn't too long before Candace Cameron Bure shared another introspective post in regards to the hateful messages she receives, perhaps due to an influx in messages specifically inquiring about the prior post. Though it's hard to tell whether or not the follow-up responses were positive or not. In her words:</p><div><blockquote><p>I shared the last post, not for sympathy but to show the kinds of messages I receive daily. DAILY!! Aging is sensitive. Comments like this hurt, no matter whether they meant to be mean spirited or just a shared 'opinion.' As I embrace aging, I'm choosing to do it as naturally and as gracefully as possible.</p></blockquote></div><p>When it comes to social media comments, celebrities are often damned if they do, and damned if they don't. In this context, Bure faces rude comments about how she looks for her age, but to her point, if she didn't choose to go "naturally," then the odds are high that she'd get hateful messages about the outcome of whatever elective surgery she chose to get. </p><p>Bure reflected on the notion that others' negativity likely has a source that hits close to home for them. As she put it:</p><div><blockquote><p>I imagine the people who write these kinds of messages are reflecting what they are personally feeling about their own self to some degree. I feel sad for them and pray for their hearts to know the love of God. Be kind. Uplift others. Spread joy.</p></blockquote></div><p><a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-asked-about-getting-so-much-public-hate-real-about-how-gut-reaction-helped">Candace Cameron Bure has spoken out about receiving “public hate”</a> in the more recent years of her lengthy entertainment career, with a lot of it tying back to <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bures-daughter-defends-traditional-marriage-comments-after-jojo-siwa-jodie-sweetin-and-more-fired-back-at-gaf-star">her comments about “traditional marriages”</a> after taking on the Great American Media gig.

                                <p>For eight seasons, Jodie Sweetin and Candace Cameron Bure starred as sisters on the hit ABC sitcom <em>Full House</em> and, years later, they reprised their roles for the sequel series, <em>Fuller House</em>. The ensemble casts of both shows are famously close, and that’s long been the case for Bure and Sweetin. However, their relationship seemed to hit a rough patch after Bure made comments about “traditional marriage” as it pertained to her new gig at Great American Family. Now, Sweetin is getting real about what actually went down between them.</p><p>Candace Cameron Bure, who’d long worked with Hallmark, left the network for Great American Family in 2022. Around that time, the veteran actress gave an interview in which she said that the movies she’d produce for the company would keep “traditional marriage” at its core. JoJo Siwa, <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/ex-hallmark-star-hilarie-burton-went-off-on-candace-cameron-bure-after-gaf-star-said-new-movies-will-feature-traditional-marriages">Hilarie Burton and more chastised Bure</a> for her remarks, and Jodie Sweetin later chimed in, without specifically naming her former co-star as well. Making note of her <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/jodie-sweetin-speaks-out-on-being-an-lgbtq-ally-after-brouhaha-over-candace-cameron-bures-traditional-marriage-comments">status as an LGBTQ+ ally</a>, Sweetin defended Siwa and expressed support. </p><p>The longtime Stephanie Tanner actress’ activism came up during her appearance on <a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/74BqRMVqAl2LgSIamZ074c"><em>The Vault Podcast</em></a>. One of the co-hosts noted that she and her co-star hold very differing views and said that the two had “gotten into it” due to their difference of opinion on the LGBTQ+ community. However, the star went on to provide some clarity on that front: </p><div><blockquote><p>We never actually got into it. She posted sort of her viewpoint, and I posted mine. We’ve always been very different on those things, and I think it was just that now all of that sort of comes to the surface more. And people — for me, I find that if I can be of service or help with whatever gift I’ve been given of people paying attention, that it is required of me to do something important with that. And, for me, something important is looking out for my queer siblings that I love and the family that’s out there that doesn’t need more shit added on. </p></blockquote></div><p>Jodie Sweetin was later asked to shed a bit more light on the nature of her relationship with Candace Cameron Bure, specifically in regard to how they interact with each other at public events. With that, Sweetin went on to describe what sounds like a relatively civil relationship akin to one between relatives:</p><div><blockquote><p>I think Candace and I – we’ve just live very different lifestyles, you know? We just exist in sort of very different worlds, but she is still someone who I’ve known since I was 5 years old. It’s like family members, where you’re like, maybe we don’t talk all the time, and I know if politics come up, it is not going to go well, but I don’t hate you. I’m not gonna not hug you, but I am also not gonna keep my mouth shut.</p></blockquote></div><div  class="fancy-box"><div class="fancy_box-title">More on Jodie Sweetin</div><div class="fancy_box_body"><figure class="van-image-figure "  ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' ><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:56.25%;"><img id="sZ8XMGdYtJTdXhh4CLmThG" name="Jodie Sweetin and CCB2.jpg" caption="" alt="Jodie Sweetin as Stephanie Tanner and Candace Cameron Bure as DJ Tanner on Full House." src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/sZ8XMGdYtJTdXhh4CLmThG.jpg" mos="" link="" align="" fullscreen="" width="" height="" attribution="" endorsement="" class="pinterest-pin-exclude"></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=""><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: Warner Bros.)</span></figcaption></figure><p class="fancy-box__body-text"><a data-analytics-id="inline-link" href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/why-jodie-sweetin-closer-to-mary-kate-ashley-olsen-than-candace-cameron-bure-during-full-house">Jodie Sweetin Explains Why She Was Much Closer To Mary-Kate And Ashley Olsen Than Candace Cameron Bure While Filming Full House</a></p></div></div><p>Shortly after the “traditional marriage” brouhaha, it was suggested that there was beef between the two former child stars. It appeared that <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/after-jodie-sweetin-supported-jojo-siwa-during-traditional-marriage-controversy-candace-cameron-bure-seemingly-unfollowed-her-on-social-media">Candace Cameron Bure unfollowed</a> her former co-star on social media. Around that time an unnamed <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/update-on-whats-allegedly-going-on-between-full-house-stars-candace-cameron-bure-and-jodie-sweetin-after-kerfuffle-over-traditional-marriage-comments">source also alleged that Bure was unhappy</a> with Jodi Sweetin making public comments as opposed to speaking about the matter with her one on one. On top of that, Bure was also candid about the backlash she received, saying <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-candid-about-cancel-culture-after-now-infamous-traditional-marriage-comments">she’d never experienced that kind of blowback</a>. </p><p>Though Jodie Sweetin and Candace Cameron Bure eventually <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/jodie-sweetin-candace-cameron-bure-feud-full-house-co-star-calls-out-not-liking-last-supper-olympics-opening-ceremony">disagreed again over the “last supper”</a> moment at the 2024 Summer Olympics, it’d been reported that the two are on relatively good terms. In 2023, <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-jodie-sweetin-reuniting-after-traditional-marriage-disagreement-full-house">they also reunited at ‘90s Con</a> alongside co-stars Dave Coulier, Andrea Barber and more. Based on Sweetin’s comments and what’s transpired in the time since Bure’s comments hit the web, it seems the two still love and respect each other, even if they don’t see eye to eye on every topic.</p>

She has written for national publications as well as daily and alt-weekly newspapers in Spokane, Washington, Syracuse, New York and Charleston, South Carolina. She graduated with her master’s degree in arts journalism and communications from the Newhouse School at Syracuse University. Since joining the CB team she has covered numerous TV shows and movies -- including her personal favorite shows &lt;em&gt;Ted Lasso &lt;/em&gt;and &lt;em&gt;The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel&lt;/em&gt;. She also has followed and consistently written about everything from Taylor Swift to &lt;em&gt;Fire Country&lt;/em&gt;, and she&#039;s enjoyed every second of it.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Riley’s range in likes is random and wide, from Marvel to musicals and from&lt;em&gt; Game of Thrones&lt;/em&gt; to the latest Netflix rom-com you can catch her watching just about anything. Her favorite movies include but are not limited to &lt;em&gt;When Harry Met Sally, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse, Finding Nemo&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;The Grand Budapest Hotel&lt;/em&gt;. She loves going to the movie theater, consuming copious amounts of popcorn and logging whatever she saw on Letterboxd immediately afterward. She constantly walks around quoting &lt;em&gt;Ted Lasso, SNL&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Parks and Rec&lt;/em&gt;. She has been known to create the occasional PowerPoint explaining the MCU to those who don’t get it. In the non-media realm, Riley is a massive college basketball fan. She is a firm believer that the Gonzaga men’s basketball team is the best team of all time, and she is patiently waiting for the day they finally win a national championship. She grew up in Washington and loves skiing, coffee and making sure that people know she is from the state, not D.C.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Anything Taylor Swift or Andrew Garfield does, finally seeing strong female representation in the MCU and eventually seeing Jonathan Bailey sing his heart out in &lt;em&gt;Wicked&lt;/em&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                            <article>
                                <p>Candace Cameron Bure is not one to shy away from talking about topics like <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-asked-about-getting-so-much-public-hate-real-about-how-gut-reaction-helped"><u>receiving hate from the public</u></a> or <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-real-about-the-ozempic-craze-hollywood-beauty-expectations"><u>Hollywood’s beauty expectations</u></a>. She’s also very open about the role faith plays in her life. Now, the actress has mixed those two things together by talking about her own struggles with negative self-talk and body image and a story from the Bible that helped her change her perspective on how she thinks about her body. </p><p>The story the holiday film star was referring to came from Numbers 22 in the Bible. It was about a man named Balaam and his donkey, and Bure said she had a dream where she was basically Balaam. Through this, she said God told her that she’s been treating her body harshly, which led her to a revelation. Getting emotional and candid about it all on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TsyL-XffGc"><u><em>The Candace Cameron Bure Podcast</em></u></a>, the actress explained: </p><div><blockquote><p>I’ve whipped my body, I’ve spoken to it so harshly, so mean – ‘What are you doing? Why do you look this way? Why are you fat? Why don’t you do this, why can’t you be like every other body?’ </p></blockquote></div><p>In the story, after the donkey Balaam is riding veers from the path, Bure explained, the man whips the animal to get it back on track. Eventually, God intervenes and allows the donkey to speak to Balaam, and the animal asks the human why he’s being treated this way when he’s proven to be so loyal to Balaam. </p><p>In the case of Bure, she said she had a dream where she was Balaam and her body was the donkey. The actress explained that her body spoke to her and asked her why she was treating it poorly: </p><div><blockquote><p>And then God allowed my body to speak back, and my body said back to me, ‘Have I not been the body that’s carried you all the days of your life? Am I not your legs that allow you to walk? Am I not your arms that allow you to pick up and feed yourself? I don’t do anything that you don’t ask me to do. I follow you. And I’m obedient to you. Why do you hurt me so badly, and why do you talk to me so badly, and why do you treat me this way? I can lift you up. I can give you strength and weights, but you have to tell me what to do. I’m only following your lead.’</p></blockquote></div><p>The <em>Full House </em>actress continued to recall this dream and how she reacted afterward. She’s always been <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/following-backlash-over-comments-candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-about-faith-and-filming-christmas-movies"><u>open about her faith</u></a>, and it seems like this moment where her life paralleled a biblical story really moved her. She called this an “amazing revelation” that really helped her with self-talk and body image, explaining: </p><div><blockquote><p>It was like this amazing revelation in my life and the weirdest story out of the Bible that God spoke to me about how mean I’ve been to my body. </p></blockquote></div><p>She went on to say that this moment in her life was “enlightening.” She also opened up about how it’s helped her perspective evolve, explaining: </p><div><blockquote><p>Since that time it’s given me a whole different perspective of how I think about my body. And when I want to use harsh words against it or I’m just unhappy with it, I think about that story, and then I think about the gratitude that I have for my body. </p></blockquote></div><div class="instagram-embed"><blockquote class="instagram-media"  data-instgrm-version="6" style="width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DIMm95dyMVD/" target="_blank">A post shared by Candace Cameron Bure (@candacecbure)</a></p><p>A photo posted by  on </p></blockquote></div><p>Clearly, this moment had a major impact on Bure, as she was visibly tearing up as she recalled it.</p><p>Over the years, the Great American Family star has addressed how she handles topics like this as well. From body image <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-about-how-she-deals-with-criticism-online"><u>to online criticism</u></a>, she’s been open about how faith helps her deal with the tougher aspects of life. </p><p>Religion has also played a much bigger part in her career lately, as many of her <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/making-family-faith-centered-movies-candace-cameron-bure-gaf-films-leaving-hallmark"><u>GAF movies are centered around faith</u></a>. She also consistently talks about the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/following-controversy-candace-cameron-bure-talks-growing-up-in-hollywood-and-going-against-the-grain-when-it-came-to-faith"><u>role faith plays in her personal and professional lives</u></a>. So, I can see why this particular moment impacted her so much. </p>

                                <p><a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/carrie-underwoods-first-season-american-idol-judge-showrunner-weighs-in-big-decision-inaguration">Carrie Underwood’s first season as judge</a> on <em>American Idol </em>continues to be a highlight of the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2025-tv-premiere-date-schedule-upcoming-new-returning-shows">2025 TV schedule</a>. As one of the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/most-famous-american-idol-contestants-what-happened-to-them">most famous <em>American Idol </em>contestants</a>, winning Season 4 in 2005, she’s returned to her old stomping grounds 20 years later to help find the next <em>Idol </em>winner. Since the episodes currently airing are still pre-taped, with live shows yet to come, Underwood has been watching every week, and she shared a solid routine to get through it that earned a stamp of approval from Candace Cameron Bure.</p><p>It's not always easy for a performer to watch themselves or hear themselves, but Underwood takes it in stride. The Grammy winner took to <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DH1nxAdBZ9t/">Instagram</a> to share how she prepares herself to watch new episodes of <em>American Idol</em> with a fresh boule and glass of vino, and it’s certainly the perfect way:</p><div class="instagram-embed"><blockquote class="instagram-media"  data-instgrm-version="6" style="width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DH1nxAdBZ9t/" target="_blank">A post shared by Carrie Underwood (@carrieunderwood)</a></p><p>A photo posted by  on </p></blockquote></div><p>Whether this is a weekly routine for Underwood or done just for this week’s episode is unknown, but it’s certainly a good idea for anyone who has to watch themselves. Or simply celebrating another great singer. Many fans took to the comments but not to share their thoughts on Underwood’s routine. Plenty shared how much they loved her natural look, and Bure couldn’t help but share her praise, too:</p><div><blockquote><p>Beautiful</p></blockquote></div><p>I certainly did not expect Bure to comment, but now it’s like they’re a duo I never knew I needed. Plus, if anyone knows what it’s like to watch themselves on TV, it would be her. She’s been watching <em>Full House </em>for the first time in ages, and she recently realized <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-watched-full-house-understand-whyshows-not-off-air-35-years">why the show hasn’t been off the air in 35 years</a>. It also wouldn’t be surprising if their paths have crossed once or twice, considering how long they both have been in the industry.</p><p>Even though <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-how-bob-saget-impacted-decision-join-the-masked-singer">Bure has been on <em>The Masked Singer</em></a>, she probably won’t be going to <em>American Idol </em>any time soon to serve as a guest judge, so for now, fans will probably have to settle with social media interactions between Bure and Underwood. But it would be fun to see those two together. Perhaps Underwood can join Bure in a movie on GAF, since the latter is proving to be quite the staple on the network since leaving Hallmark Channel.</p><p>Meanwhile, it was announced in July that <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/katy-perry-american-idol-replacement-reportedly-found-carrie-underwood">Carrie Underwood would be replacing Katy Perry</a> as judge since Perry wanted to step back to focus on her music. It’s <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/carrie-underwood-says-impossible-not-to-feel-nostalgic-return-american-idol-one-part-painful">been a nostalgia-filled trip</a>, especially for those who watched Underwood on <em>Idol </em>back in the day. Seeing her glow-up now is certainly incredible, but <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/sweet-memento-carrie-underwood-kept-first-american-idol-run">she still keeps a memento from her auditions</a>, which is nice since she’s blown up since those days.</p>

                                <p>Following <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/see-john-stamos-candace-cameron-bure-lovely-messages-full-house-co-star-dave-coulier-cancer-battle">Dave Coulier’s cancer diagnosis</a>, the <em>Full House </em>actor has been putting up quite the fight, and he’s been able to do so alongside much support from his family and former co-stars, many of whom are certainly still like family. Among those showing support is Candace Cameron Bure, who previously <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opened-up-about-dave-coulier-cancer-diagnosis">opened up about the diagnosis</a> and how “devastating” it was when Coulier called and told her. Months later, Bure is now celebrating the fact that Coulier is officially cancer-free, and the two had a wholesome exchange that also included a “poopoo” nickname.</p><p>Bure took to <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DH4HIEyh1cQ">Instagram</a> on Monday to cheer on the news that Coulier is now cancer-free after being previously diagnosed with Stage 3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma in October. The GAF actress and producer shared some sweet photos of herself and Coulier from over the years, including from their <em>Full House </em>days, and totally kept it clean. </p><div class="instagram-embed"><blockquote class="instagram-media"  data-instgrm-version="6" style="width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DH4HIEyh1cQ/" target="_blank">A post shared by Candace Cameron Bure (@candacecbure)</a></p><p>A photo posted by  on </p></blockquote></div><p>Of course, the comments were filled with a lot of love. Coulier also went into the comments to express his love for Bure and called her a pretty interesting nickname, and now I’m dying to know where it came from:</p><p>Dave Coulier: Love you so much, poopoo❤️</p><p>Candace Cameron Bure: @dcoulier love YOU so much ❤️</p><p>It’s a very wholesome exchange, especially since it’s clear there’s some type of inside joke or something that includes the “poopoo” nickname. It also shows just how close they are as Bure just expressed her love for Coulier back and didn’t bat an eye. The fact that they have their own little nicknames for each other makes their relationship that much more special, even over 35 years after <em>Full House </em>first aired.</p><p>Bure, who <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-how-bob-saget-impacted-decision-join-the-masked-singer">honored late co-star Bob Saget on <em>The Masked Singer</em></a>, was one of many to show support for Coulier on social media when he made the cancer announcement. Meanwhile, John Stamos wore a bald cap for his longtime friend and after <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/people-complained-john-stamos-wore-bald-cap-in-support-of-full-house-co-star-and-dave-coulier-response">people complained about it just being a bald cap</a>, Coulier came to his defense and shared that he “laughed out loud” when he saw Stamos in it. <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/john-stamos-sweet-new-years-message-shouted-full-house-co-star-cancer-battle-candace-cameron-bure-dave-coulier">Stamos also gave a New Year’s shoutout to Coulier</a>, which was sweet to see.</p><p>Coulier’s cancer battle had not been easy, but he’d been constantly giving fans updates on social media and showing them that he was still putting up a fight. He recently opened up about <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/as-dave-coulier-contends-with-cancer-diagnosis-he-opens-up-missing-late-full-house-co-star-bob-saget">missing Saget</a> and shared what he thought he would say about the diagnosis and how he would be there for him. </p><p>As a longtime <em>Full House </em>fan, I love nothing more than to see the cast interact with each other and reunite with one another. As well as keeping the memory of their late co-star alive. Now that Coulier is officially cancer-free, fans can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that he’s going to be okay. Additionally, there will likely be many more wholesome exchanges and reunions to come as the <em>Full House </em>family celebrates the good news.</p>

I’ll get over the fear.’ And then, when I really started thinking about it, Bob was such a special part of the show, and he was in the first episode that I ever watched, not knowing it was him. </p></blockquote></div><p><a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2558312/the-masked-singers-squiggly-monster-revealed-big-plans-for-the-next-round">Bob Saget was revealed to be the Squiggly Monster</a> on <em>The Masked Singer</em> in Season 4, which apparently another <em>Full House</em> alum, John Stamos, had been aware of because the Uncle Jesse portrayer would have appeared as a clue if Saget had made it further. </p><p>Candace Cameron Bure, meanwhile, wasn’t informed beforehand that her former TV dad would be one of the costumed contestants, but it didn’t take her long to figure it out. She continued:</p><div><blockquote><p>But I'm sitting on my couch and I'm like, 'What is this crazy show?' People are walking out in these costumes. It was so nuts to me. And I go, ‘I’m just gonna watch one episode.’ And, as soon as the Squiggly Eyed Monster walked out, I heard one note, and I was like, ‘That’s Bob! That’s Bob!’ I was, like, jumping on my couch like Tom Cruise with Katie Holmes. I was like, 'That's Bob! This is amazing!' And I kinda just — I loved it from then on out because he was the introduction for me to the show.</p></blockquote></div><p>What a fun memory, and I can see how channeling his energy could be motivation to finally accept <em>The Masked Singer</em>’s invitation, despite being so scared to do it.</p><figure class="van-image-figure  inline-layout" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style="max-width:1280px;"><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:56.25%;"><img id="pvEHnQqBA88ezgRHdnpwwg" name="ccb bob masked singer" alt="Candace Cameron Bure and Bob Saget on their respective seasons of The Masked Singer." src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/pvEHnQqBA88ezgRHdnpwwg.jpg" mos="" align="middle" fullscreen="" width="1280" height="720" attribution="" endorsement="" class=""></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=" inline-layout"><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: Fox)</span></figcaption></figure><p>Jana Kramer — who, like Candace Cameron Bure, has done both <em>The Masked Singer</em> and <em>Dancing with the Stars</em> — said the mask provided a shield between her and the audience that made her more comfortable singing.

                                <p>Candace Cameron Bure has been staying busy, thanks to her various professional obligations at GAF. The <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-asked-viral-traditional-marriage-comments-explained-why-move-gaf-really-hard-time">move to a new network was hard</a> for her initially, but she seems to be settling into her position just fine. When she's not working though, Bure is known to occasionally tear up a red carpet with a fresh look like her friend and colleague Danica McKellar. Just recently, <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/danica-mckellar-sequined-minidress-reunited-candace-cameron-bure-50th-birthday-celebration">McKellar who rocked a sequined minidress</a> and was stunning. Now, Bure is rocking her own incredible dress, and it’s perfect for the winter season.</p><p>Last weekend, the 48-year-old actress stepped out onto the red carpet for the Movie Guide Awards. The little black dress has become something of a fashion staple, but Candace Cameron Bure subverted any kind of expectations by going with a silver ensemble. It was a truly shiny piece of work that the <em>Full House</em> alum sported effortlessly. Take a look at her outfit in its entirety down below:</p><figure class="van-image-figure  inline-layout" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style="max-width:1280px;"><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:148.20%;"><img id="KEyesCa2XHyKSBbsKXadWb" name="GettyImages-2198304738" alt="Candace Cameron Bure attends the 32nd annual Movieguide Awards Gala at AVALON Hollywood on February 07, 2025 in Los Angeles, California." src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/KEyesCa2XHyKSBbsKXadWb.jpg" mos="" align="middle" fullscreen="" width="1280" height="1897" attribution="" endorsement="" class=""></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=" inline-layout"><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: Michael Tullberg/Getty Images)</span></figcaption></figure><p>The actress also took to her <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DF50BD3y8na">Instagram</a> to show off the look. In addition to dropping several sweet snapshots, she also shared a lovely caption, in which she shouted out her stylists. Not only that, but she went on to share a funny but sweet summation of how she felt while wearing the dress:</p><div><blockquote><p>WHAT A JOY last Friday night was 🎥⭐️ I was able to be with some of my favorite people to celebrate the [Movieguide] awards hosted by [Great American Pure Flix] [Great American Family]!! You can watch the Movie Guide awards on March 6th on Great American Family channel ❤️ and a big thank you to [David Robert Naumann] + [Lyndsay Zavitz] + [Erin Noel] for making me feel like the prettiest disco ball 🪩✨</p></blockquote></div><div  class="fancy-box"><div class="fancy_box-title">More on Candace Cameron Bure</div><div class="fancy_box_body"><figure class="van-image-figure "  ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' ><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:56.25%;"><img id="QNquBtTnL5mcUU3ZBqbK7H" name="ccb and dm GAF" caption="" alt="From left to right: Candace Cameron Bure in A Christmas...Present and Danica McKellar in A Royal Date fo Christmas." src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/QNquBtTnL5mcUU3ZBqbK7H.jpg" mos="" link="" align="" fullscreen="" width="" height="" attribution="" endorsement="" class="pinterest-pin-exclude"></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=""><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: Great American Family)</span></figcaption></figure><p class="fancy-box__body-text"><a data-analytics-id="inline-link" href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/christmas-movie-queens-danica-mckellar-candace-cameron-bure-love-triangle-jeremy-miller-growing-pains">I Just Found Out Christmas Movie Queens Danica McKellar And Candace Cameron Bure Were In A Love Triangle Decades Ago, And A Growing Pains Actor Was Involved</a></p></div></div><p>Considering how shiny her dress is, I feel like a person would have to wear shades when looking at it in person. In all seriousness, though, I can't think of a better ensemble to convey the vibes of the winter season. I'd honestly love to see the former Hallmark star wear silver more often, as it suits her very well. I'm not sure whether or not she'd truly consider herself to be a fashionista, but I'd say she has great taste.</p><p>A silver dress and <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-end-black-bikini-summer-energy-tries-cold-plunge">a cold plunge</a> aren't the only ways in which Candace Cameron Bure has become somewhat synonymous with the winter season. She's, of course, also starred in her fair share of holiday movies set to the backdrop of winter. So, if you if you look at it from that perspective, this particular outfit is really on brand for her.</p><p>Aside from that, Candace Cameron Bure seems to be loving being on GAF, and not just because she’s been able to get all dressed up for award shows hosted by the network. In November, <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-about-hallmark-exit-and-what-she-loves-about-gaf">she opened up about her Hallmark exit</a>, revealing she was excited to be on a network that was “more meaningful personally.” On top of leading movies on GAF, she’s also been <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/making-family-faith-centered-movies-candace-cameron-bure-gaf-films-leaving-hallmark">producing faith-centered films</a>. Needless to say she's forging a unique path for herself business-wise.</p><p>The veteran actress' GAF takeover doesn't seem to be slowing down, and I hope there's also no shortage of fresh looks from her moving forward. I'd imagine that she can rock just about anything but, after seeing this silver look, I'm hoping she continues to go with it. In short, Candace Cameron Bure should own this "disco ball" look!</p>

She has written for national publications as well as daily and alt-weekly newspapers in Spokane, Washington, Syracuse, New York and Charleston, South Carolina. She graduated with her master’s degree in arts journalism and communications from the Newhouse School at Syracuse University. Since joining the CB team she has covered numerous TV shows and movies -- including her personal favorite shows &lt;em&gt;Ted Lasso &lt;/em&gt;and &lt;em&gt;The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel&lt;/em&gt;. She also has followed and consistently written about everything from Taylor Swift to &lt;em&gt;Fire Country&lt;/em&gt;, and she&#039;s enjoyed every second of it.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Riley’s range in likes is random and wide, from Marvel to musicals and from&lt;em&gt; Game of Thrones&lt;/em&gt; to the latest Netflix rom-com you can catch her watching just about anything. Her favorite movies include but are not limited to &lt;em&gt;When Harry Met Sally, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse, Finding Nemo&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;The Grand Budapest Hotel&lt;/em&gt;. She loves going to the movie theater, consuming copious amounts of popcorn and logging whatever she saw on Letterboxd immediately afterward. She constantly walks around quoting &lt;em&gt;Ted Lasso, SNL&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Parks and Rec&lt;/em&gt;. She has been known to create the occasional PowerPoint explaining the MCU to those who don’t get it. In the non-media realm, Riley is a massive college basketball fan. She is a firm believer that the Gonzaga men’s basketball team is the best team of all time, and she is patiently waiting for the day they finally win a national championship. She grew up in Washington and loves skiing, coffee and making sure that people know she is from the state, not D.C.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Anything Taylor Swift or Andrew Garfield does, finally seeing strong female representation in the MCU and eventually seeing Jonathan Bailey sing his heart out in &lt;em&gt;Wicked&lt;/em&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>Danica McKellar’s birthday may have been at the start of January, but when you are celebrating a milestone like 50, the party deserves to last all month. A few weeks after taking a rejuvenating <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/danica-mckellar-celebrated-50-bikini-birthday-plunge-looks-chilly"><u>cold plunge to celebrate</u></a> her big day on January 3, the actress put on a gorgeous sparkling minidress and threw a big sparkly salsa party with her pals, including Candace Cameron Bure.</p><h2 id="danica-mckellar-wore-a-stunning-sequined-minidress-to-celebrate-her-birthday">Danica McKellar Wore A Stunning Sequined Minidress To Celebrate Her Birthday </h2><p>Honestly, Danica McKellar’s birthday is in the perfect month. It’s after the holiday rush, which she’s always a big part of because of her work at Great American Family, and before the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2025-tv-premiere-date-schedule-upcoming-new-returning-shows"><u>2025 TV schedule</u></a> really kicks into high gear. So, it seems like it’d be a great time to take a beat and celebrate. </p><p>This year, she decided to go big too because she turned 50, and she did it in style, take a look at what she posted on her <a href="https://www.instagram.com/danicamckellar/?hl=en">IG story</a>:</p><figure class="van-image-figure  inline-layout" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style="max-width:1280px;"><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:187.50%;"><img id="a3qL7VqYBhg6M3iX5pY4Q8" name="danica ig story birthday" alt="Danica McKellar standing at her birthday party in a metalic silver dress holding a glass and smiling." src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/a3qL7VqYBhg6M3iX5pY4Q8.jpg" mos="" align="middle" fullscreen="" width="1280" height="2400" attribution="" endorsement="" class=""></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=" inline-layout"><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: Danica McKellar's Instagram)</span></figcaption></figure><p>The silver sequined minidress was so fun, and perfect for this occasion! Plus, over on her <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DFWWP19vHiy/?img_index=1"><u>Instagram</u></a>, McKellar posted an image of her and her hubby, and he wore a disco ball-esque top that matched her dress perfectly. </p><p>This was also the assignment for the night. McKellar wrote that everyone wore sparkles to the event, and it sounds like the party was sparkling just as much as they were, as she explained: </p><div><blockquote><p>My 50th birthday party!! I am still just pinching myself from this weekend- what a sparkly, fun, love-filled night!! ✨️💕 Friends and family wore sequins (they understood the assignment- swipe to see what I mean!) and had a blast on the dance floor - I'll post some instastories of that! Some even flew on an airplane (!) to be there, like my dear friends @candacecbure, @jasonhervey, and my sister Crystal & her family! 💕💕</p></blockquote></div><p>Her friends and family sure did understand the assignment, proving they were very here to celebrate their friend’s big birthday. This included Candace Cameron Bure too, who posted about the party and her reunion with McKellar. </p><h2 id="candace-cameron-bure-posted-an-adorable-birthday-message-for-danica-mckellar-after-reuniting">Candace Cameron Bure Posted An Adorable Birthday Message For Danica McKellar After Reuniting </h2><p>The guest list for McKellar’s party truly was immaculate and a who’s who of <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/former-child-stars-who-are-still-acting-today"><u>former child stars</u></a> and TV actors from the ‘90s and early ‘00s as well as current Hallmark and Great American Family actors.  Melissa Joan Hart, Jesse Hutch, Bethany Joy Lenz, Erin Cahill, Jason Hervey and more were in attendance. Notably, Candace Cameron Bure – who was also a sitcom star who went on to lead Hallmark movies before <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/with-hallmark-star-danica-mckellar-leaving-for-another-network-are-more-exits-coming"><u>moving to GAF</u></a> – was there too, and she shared the sweetest message about the evening on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DFWN4qjvBR3/"><u>her Instagram</u></a>: </p><div><blockquote><p>Happy 50th birthday to the ageless beauty @danicamckellar 🎉🥳🩷 Celebrating you with family and friends was a night I’ll never forget✨. Sequins and salsa 💃🏼- it doesn’t get more FUN!!! You are a beautiful friend inside and out ✨💕</p></blockquote></div><p>Isn’t that the most precious message? I love that everyone seemed so on board to celebrate 50 with “sequins and salsa.” Oh, also, like the <em>Wonder Years </em>actress, Bure was literally sparkling at the party too, as she rocked a sequined red matching set. Truly, it looked like a wonderful way to commemorate such a big birthday. </p><p>McKellar and Bure have known each other for decades – heck, they were even in a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/christmas-movie-queens-danica-mckellar-candace-cameron-bure-love-triangle-jeremy-miller-growing-pains"><u>love triangle with </u><u><em>Growing Pains’ </em></u><u>Jeremy Miller</u></a> back in the ‘80s – and their careers have run parallel to each other. So, seeing lovely messages like this and knowing their history makes everything even sweeter. </p><p>Overall, this reunion and the party looked like a grand old time, and I love that Danica McKellar went all out for 50. </p><p>Considering how <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/after-danica-mckellar-left-hallmark-for-gaf-explained-why"><u>happy McKellar is with her move to GAF</u></a> as well as the number of films she’s put out in the last few years, it’s clear she’s thriving professionally. Meanwhile, her birthday celebrations – cold plunge, sequins, salsa and all – prove that she’s thriving personally too, and we love to see it. </p>

She started freelancing for the site in 2020 and officially came on board in 2021. Her job entails writing news stories and TV reactions from some of her favorite prime-time shows like Grey&#039;s Anatomy and The Bachelor. She graduated from Louisiana Tech University with a degree in Journalism and worked in the newspaper industry for almost two decades in multiple roles including Sports Editor, Page Designer and Online Editor.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Heidi grew up in the 1990s, and her tastes strongly reflect that. She can (and does) quote Friends constantly, enjoys a good West Wing binge, thinks Can&#039;t Hardly Wait was the most influential movie of her life and finds solace in 311 concerts. On Sundays during football season, she can be found cheering on the New Orleans Saints with her husband and two daughters. Who Dat! She loves to read but usually settles for a pop culture podcast, and thinks the best weekends are spent cooking and playing cards with friends and family, preferably with some UFC fights or other sporting event on TV.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Football season, Pumpkin Spice Lattes and everything related to fall and cooler weather. The Game of Roses podcast and all things The Bachelor, and new episodes of Grey&#039;s Anatomy, Love Is Blind, The Voice, OMITB and more.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>Ever since she was a child actor on <em>Full House</em>, Candace Cameron Bure has been beloved by many, and that continues today with her work at Great American Family and the movies they’re producing for the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2025-tv-premiere-date-schedule-upcoming-new-returning-shows">2025 TV schedule</a>. Her faith has always been important to her, and some of her words and actions in service of that have caused backlash over the years. When asked about how she deals with “so much public hate,” of course Bure referenced the Bible, but it turns out that trusting her gut reaction has been a big part of what has helped her too.</p><p>Candace Cameron Bure has said growing up in Hollywood as a Christian really taught her to defend her faith, and she never had to do that more than after she mentioned <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/ex-hallmark-star-hilarie-burton-went-off-on-candace-cameron-bure-after-gaf-star-said-new-movies-will-feature-traditional-marriages">“traditional marriage” in the now-infamous WSJ article</a> in 2022. In reference to that and other tough situations she’s encountered, Bure <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DChejeWys5E/">explained on <em>The JWLKRS Podcast</em></a> how she was able to get through it, saying: </p><div><blockquote><p>My gut reaction is not to fight with people. I want to take a hike. So, with that I think my disposition helped me in that when people really come at me, I don’t get super riled up. So, it takes more composure in that I have to, like, take a breath when it comes to that kind of stuff. </p></blockquote></div><p>The <em>Fuller House</em> star also referenced a Bible verse from 1 Peter that struck a chord with her that begins, “But even if you should suffer from righteousness, you are blessed.” As a person who’s always been <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/following-backlash-over-comments-candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-about-faith-and-filming-christmas-movies">open about her faith</a>, Candace Cameron Bure is always ready to defend who she is. She continued:</p><div><blockquote><p>We know we are going to come into conflict with people; be ready to give a defense to anyone who asks. We know that defense really is the hope that is within us.</p></blockquote></div><p>Two years after the actress first commented on Great American Family not including LGBTQ+ couples in its Christmas movies, it remains an “ongoing challenge” to fight cancel culture because she’s “<a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-candid-about-cancel-culture-after-now-infamous-traditional-marriage-comments">never taken those types of punches before</a>.” In December 2024, she again said her quote was taken out of context, emphasizing that “<a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-asked-viral-traditional-marriage-comments-explained-why-move-gaf-really-hard-time">it was a really hard time</a>” to be misunderstood in that way.</p><p>Candace Cameron Bure’s gut reaction may be to hightail it away from confrontation, but that hasn’t stopped controversy from finding her, and she’s faced scrutiny over far more than the WSJ comment.</p><p>She took some flak this summer when she <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-thought-the-olympics-opening-ceremony-was-disgusting-and-she-did-not-hold-back-it-made-me-sad">called the Olympics Opening Ceremony “disgusting”</a> and inappropriate for children, possibly <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/jodie-sweetin-candace-cameron-bure-feud-full-house-co-star-calls-out-not-liking-last-supper-olympics-opening-ceremony"><u>r</u>eigniting the feud between her and her TV sister Jodie Sweetin</a>.</p><p>In 2022, Candace Cameron Bure faced accusations of being <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/so-you-think-you-can-dances-jojo-siwa-grins-through-split-second-slam-on-candace-cameron-bure">rude to JoJo Siwa</a>, and <em>Vanderpump Rules</em> star <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/vanderpump-rules-scheana-shay-beef-with-candace-cameron-bure">Scheana Shay has her own beef with CCB</a>, also saying Bure “wasn’t very nice” when she met her. Bure’s husband Val even has taken some abuse, if you’ll recall the 2020 <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2559145/candace-cameron-bure-addresses-the-haters-mad-about-photo-of-her-husband-touching-her-boob">boob-grab controversy</a> and, more recently, the negative response to the actress saying her husband <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-backlash-after-she-mentioned-husband-didnt-like-her-kiss-other-people-movies">doesn’t like seeing her kiss other men</a> in movies.</p><p>That is, indeed, quite a lot of hate for a person to deal with. Keep an eye out to see what Candace Cameron Bure will do next following <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/rotten-tomatoes-new-popcornmeter-surprising-movie-99-win-audience-unsung-hero-candace-cameron-bure"><em>Unsung Hero</em>’s big win on Rotten Tomatoes’ Popcornmeter</a>. No new projects have been announced, but after she starred in multiple GAF Christmas movies this season, I’m sure she’s got more up her sleeve.</p>

                                                                <dc:description><![CDATA[ &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Background&lt;/strong&gt;: Riley Utley is the Weekend Editor at CinemaBlend. She has written for national publications as well as daily and alt-weekly newspapers in Spokane, Washington, Syracuse, New York and Charleston, South Carolina. She graduated with her master’s degree in arts journalism and communications from the Newhouse School at Syracuse University. Since joining the CB team she has covered numerous TV shows and movies -- including her personal favorite shows &lt;em&gt;Ted Lasso &lt;/em&gt;and &lt;em&gt;The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel&lt;/em&gt;. She also has followed and consistently written about everything from Taylor Swift to &lt;em&gt;Fire Country&lt;/em&gt;, and she&#039;s enjoyed every second of it.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Riley’s range in likes is random and wide, from Marvel to musicals and from&lt;em&gt; Game of Thrones&lt;/em&gt; to the latest Netflix rom-com you can catch her watching just about anything. Her favorite movies include but are not limited to &lt;em&gt;When Harry Met Sally, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse, Finding Nemo&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;The Grand Budapest Hotel&lt;/em&gt;. She loves going to the movie theater, consuming copious amounts of popcorn and logging whatever she saw on Letterboxd immediately afterward. She constantly walks around quoting &lt;em&gt;Ted Lasso, SNL&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Parks and Rec&lt;/em&gt;. She has been known to create the occasional PowerPoint explaining the MCU to those who don’t get it. In the non-media realm, Riley is a massive college basketball fan. She is a firm believer that the Gonzaga men’s basketball team is the best team of all time, and she is patiently waiting for the day they finally win a national championship. She grew up in Washington and loves skiing, coffee and making sure that people know she is from the state, not D.C.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Anything Taylor Swift or Andrew Garfield does, finally seeing strong female representation in the MCU and eventually seeing Jonathan Bailey sing his heart out in &lt;em&gt;Wicked&lt;/em&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>Yes, we are still occasionally talking about the impact <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/ex-hallmark-star-hilarie-burton-went-off-on-candace-cameron-bure-after-gaf-star-said-new-movies-will-feature-traditional-marriages"><u>Candace Cameron Bure’s comments about traditional marriage</u></a> had on her career. After her transition from Hallmark to Great American Family back in 2022, the actress said the channel would “keep traditional marriage at the core,” and that was met with great backlash. Now, after being asked about all that, she opened up about why that time was “really hard” for her.</p><p>During the final days of the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/upcoming-christmas-movie-schedule-streaming-and-tv-dates"><u>2024 Christmas schedule</u></a>, Bure spoke with <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/candace-cameron-bure-christmas-movies-great-american-family-1236093888/"><u>THR</u></a> about the films she worked on this year and reflected on headlines she’s made over the last few years. That included her addressing that “traditional marriage” comment. After being asked about her words going viral in 2022 and her <em>Full House </em>co-star <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/after-jodie-sweetin-supported-jojo-siwa-during-traditional-marriage-controversy-candace-cameron-bure-seemingly-unfollowed-her-on-social-media"><u>Jodie Sweetin’s issues with them</u></a>, the GAF actress said:  </p><div><blockquote><p>It certainly is difficult when talking to media outlets. While we are grateful for media outlets that point people to our channels, there’s still always a risk because the answers can be written out of context. That certainly happened to me when moving over to Great American Family, and it was a really hard time, and to be misunderstood in that way was difficult. </p></blockquote></div><p>There was an explosion of backlash after Bure made this comment.<a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/jojo-siwa-drops-f-bomb-while-sharing-more-thoughts-on-candace-cameron-bures-traditional-marriage-comments"><u> Jojo Siwa called her out</u></a>, Hilarie Burton did too, and many others also shared their thoughts on the matter. People thought the comments were excluding LGBTQ+ stories on the channel, and <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/after-candace-cameron-bures-marriage-comments-went-viral-they-sparked-a-response-from-glaad"><u>GLAAD commented on her words</u></a>, saying they were “irresponsible and hurtful.” </p><p>Amid all this, <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-explains-her-controversial-gaf-christmas-movie-quotes-after-public-backlash"><u>Candace Cameron Bure released a statement</u></a>, writing that she loves everyone of any “race, creed, sexuality, or political party, including those who have tried to bully [her] with name-calling.” Then, a year later, she noted that <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-candid-about-cancel-culture-after-now-infamous-traditional-marriage-comments"><u>she’d “never taken those types of punches before,”</u></a> and all the attention and backlash surrounding what she said was “an ongoing challenge.”  </p><p>Now, she’s moved forward, and she spoke about how Great American Family has grown in the years since this happened, explaining: </p><div><blockquote><p>But what I will say is that we are a relatively new channel. This is only our fourth year in Christmas. Like any new business, you have your core demographic and what you’re looking for, and you’re going to produce the product that will best suit that audience. Most networks are not trying to be all things to all people. What really differentiates our channel from some of the other ones out there is that we’re not afraid to talk about God and God’s hand in our lives instead of fate or providence.</p></blockquote></div><p>Bure has never shied away from talking about her faith, and her work at GAF centers around it greatly. It’s clear she’s passionate about it, and as she said, she wants to make films that focus on that idea. </p><p>Now, Candace Cameron Bure has been at Great American Family for years, and she’s established herself as a major star there – as she works as both an actress and producer. So, you can expect to see more movies from her and the network on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2025-tv-premiere-date-schedule-upcoming-new-returning-shows"><u>2025 TV schedule</u></a>, and as more news comes out about these infamous comments and everything that followed, we’ll be sure to keep you posted.  </p>

She’s been kicking out news stories at CinemaBlend since 2007 and joined the full-time staff in 2014. She oversees news content, hiring and training for the site, and her areas of expertise include theme parks, rom-coms, Hallmark (particularly Christmas movie season), reality TV, celebrity interviews and primetime. She loves a good animated movie.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jessica has a Masters in Library Science degree from Indiana University, and used to be found behind a reference desk most definitely not shushing people. She now uses those skills in researching and tracking down information in very different ways.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She’s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: A former soccer player and recent tennis addict, Jessica also enjoys running, both of the distance and sprint variety. When not at the movie theater or in a theme park, her other free time is spent in book clubs, hiking, drinking wine, binge-watching, keeping tabs on celebrity fashion and riding rollercoasters. Has a serious Hallmark habit and an even bigger record-buying habit. Will bake for compliments.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She’s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: &amp;nbsp;Hallmark Christmas movie season. Wearing socks to bed. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>Danica McKellar and Candace Cameron Bure were both making headlines a couple of years ago when they <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/hallmark-stars-who-left-for-gac-family-and-who-are-definitely-staying">left Hallmark for GAF</a>, but their friendship has weathered more than a network change over the years. The two have been pals for decades, and Bure was even a catalyst for McKellar finding religion; they’ve also worked together in the rom-com and <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/best-christmas-movies-all-time">Christmas movies </a>space. But at the start of their acquaintance there was a bit more friction. In fact, I just learned the two TV stars were actually involved in a love triangle decades ago, and a <em>Growing Pains</em> actor was involved. </p><h2 id="the-story-behind-the-love-triangle-bure-and-mckellar-inadvertently-got-involved-in">The Story Behind The Love Triangle Bure And McKellar Inadvertently Got Involved In</h2><p>Back in the the late ‘80s, <em>Growing Pains</em> was a big deal. One of the stars of the series, Jeremy Miller, was a young teen at the time who knew both Bure and McKellar -- and were interested in both young ladies to boot. Danica McKellar revealed how the three of them got involved in a love triangle and it all had to do with a little scheme Miller seemingly had going. </p><div><blockquote><p>So, in 1989, I believe it was, there was this party that a teen magazine was putting on and ["Growing Pains" star] Jeremy Miller, who was also a young actor, he was at this party. I was there, and Candace was there. and he asked me to be his girlfriend. And I was like, ‘Yes!’ And I didn't know at the time, but I guess Candace thought that she and Jeremy were dating. </p></blockquote></div><p>Stone cold move, Jeremy! The actress did quickly clarify to <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/wonder-years-star-danica-mckellar-reveals-love-triangle-candace-cameron-bure-1980s">Fox News</a> this was “so silly” and did not happen when they were grownups but when they were still child stars going to meet and greets and other events in Hollywood. She was in middle school at the time, but she says there is a reason it still rubs a little: She didn’t find out he was dating both women until years later. </p><div><blockquote><p>But I found out years later on Dancing with the Stars, I found out that she was like, ‘Oh, we were dating. I'm like, What?’ So, Jeremy, tsk tsk, not good. But luckily my friendship with Candace has survived just fine.</p></blockquote></div><p>In fact, after making appearances together during their <em>Wonder Years</em> and <em>Full House</em> years growing up, the two actresses have continued to cross paths. Both appeared on <em>DWTS</em> in 2014 and despite <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-taking-ten-year-break-from-acting-why-she-returned">Bure taking a lengthy acting break</a>, both went on to star in flicks on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2568036/upcoming-hallmark-movies-full-list-of-new-titles-and-premiere-dates">Hallmark schedule </a>in the years after. The two <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/following-danica-mckellar-hallmark-star-candace-cameron-bure-just-signed-a-deal-with-another-network">left that network at similar times for GAF</a>, heading there after Hallmark started catering toward inclusion.</p><h2 id="jeremy-miller-recalls-this-story-as-being-more-on-the-up-and-up">Jeremy Miller Recalls This Story As Being More On The Up And Up</h2><p>While both ladies look back at their middle school years and feel they were maybe played a little by the <em>Growing Pains</em> star, he doth protest a little bit. He explained the story to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2g-dEjHQcLM"><u>OWN</u></a> a while back, revealing he did date Candace Cameron Bure, and grew interested in McKellar. But there’s a big but. </p><div><blockquote><p>Yes, back in the day, Candace and I were ‘going together,’ you know what I mean? It didn’t go anywhere. We were kids. … We saw each other on the set; she’d come with the family and stuff to visit us while we were working. We’d see each other at parties for Growing Pains, stuff like that. … I met Danica around that time. We were doing an event for Teen Beat Magazine. I was pretty smitten from Day 1. She was a couple of years older than me at that point, and she had no interest in me whatsoever. But that did not deter me. </p></blockquote></div><p>In fact, he made it very clear he broke things off with the <em>Full Actress</em> before pursuing TV’s own Winnie Cooper. He had a whole scheme to get her to go on a date, given she was nearly 14 and he was only 12 at the time. The Dark Knight himself was involved. </p><div><blockquote><p>I broke up with Candace and started pursuing Danica. Again, she wanted nothing to do with me. But even at that young age, I knew what I was doing a little bit. That was 1988 and Batman was coming out and I called up my people at Warner Bros. and said, ‘You gotta get me two tickets. I need them now!’ And they did. I asked her if she wanted to go to the premiere with me, rented a limo, came and picked her up.</p></blockquote></div><p>He also called Danica McKellar his first real “dating” relationship, noting that with Bure they were both so young it was more about hanging out with one another on each others’ respective sets with parents and co-stars around. He and McKellar were able to do real activities together and have more alone time, including getting ice cream and talking for hours. But he says he knew he “broke Candace’s heart” at the time and admitted it became, perhaps, “a little bit of a love triangle.” </p><p>Young love, amiright? The three have certainly all moved on in the time since, with Miller marrying a woman named Joanie he says lovely things about on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CvlYiAjJqXd/?hl=en"><u>Instagram</u></a>. Candace Cameron Bure’s been <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bures-been-married-to-husband-val-for-26-years-and-they-celebrated-the-milestone-with-a-funny-photo">married to former hockey player Val Bure since 1996</a> and they share three children together. Danica McKellar has been married to Scott Sveslosky since 2014 and has a child from her previous marriage to Mike Verta. Young love may not have lasted, but they all ended up doing pretty well for themselves. </p>

While Danica McKellar admitted to <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/candace-cameron-bure-danica-mckellar-fast-forward-kissing-scenes-husbands-dont-watch">Fox News</a> that she tends to fast-forward through the kissing scenes because her real-life Prince Charming “doesn’t like” them, she also revealed a different strategy:</p><div><blockquote><p>When that part of the movie happens, I just kiss him.</p></blockquote></div><p>Nicely done, Danica. That's definitely a great way to reassure your husband during those inevitably awkward moments. Candace Cameron Bure seemingly liked her idea too, as McKellar’s response reportedly evoked a laugh from her friend. The <em>Full House</em> veteran shared her own perspective after previously opening up about the backlash Val Bure received over his apparent discomfort.</p><h2 id="candace-cameron-bure-shares-more-thoughts-on-husband-s-feelings-about-on-screen-romances">Candace Cameron Bure Shares More Thoughts On Husband’s Feelings About On-Screen Romances</h2><p><a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/fan-asked-candace-cameron-bure-if-she-retiring-acting-apparently-more-to-story">Candace Cameron Bure, who nearly quit acting</a> years ago, has been married to her husband since 1996, and the conversation regarding her characters’ romances has been ongoing for quite a while. After opening up about the backlash she and Val Bure received from her saying he didn’t like seeing her kiss other men, she went further into it with Fox News, saying:</p><div><blockquote><p>I don't think it's as comfortable for anybody — maybe if you're an actor married to another actor — it's just never comfortable to watch your spouse in the arms of someone, even though it's a peck or a kiss or anything. … We have those honest conversations. He's like, 'I don't really want to watch that part' and 'I don't want to put you through that.’ But ... we kind of worked through those feelings to a place where we both feel good and supported through it.</p></blockquote></div><p>It makes sense that non-actor spouses might not have the same understanding of on-screen romance, simply because they haven’t done that. Danica McKellar and Candace Cameron Bure, meanwhile, have been acting since they were children, and indeed, this was an issue that cropped up when Bure was involved in a love triangle on <em>Fuller House</em> years ago. Communication is key, it seems, but a little distraction a la McKellar’s method doesn’t sound like a bad idea either.</p>

                                <p>Fans can always count on seeing <em>Full House</em> alum Candace Cameron Bure on their screens when the holidays roll around, and sure enough, the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/upcoming-christmas-movie-schedule-streaming-and-tv-dates"><u>2024 Christmas movie calendar</u></a> features a trio of flicks for the Great American Family star. That sounds like quite a bit of romance this season for the actress who revealed on her podcast recently that her husband doesn’t like her kissing her co-stars. The comment apparently sparked a lot of backlash, and Bure got real about the conversations they’ve had about it. </p><p>Candace Cameron Bure has been married to Val Bure since 1996, and they share three grown children — Natasha, 26, Lev, 24, and Maksim, 22. The actress, who <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/hallmark-stars-who-left-for-gac-family-and-who-are-definitely-staying"><u>left Hallmark for GAF</u></a> in 2022, spoke to <a href="https://www.today.com/parents/moms/candace-cameron-bure-husband-kissing-rcna181882"><u><em>TODAY</em></u></a> about fans’ reaction to her comments about Val and how he feels about all the fun Christmas romances on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2024-tv-show-premiere-dates-schedule"><u>2024 TV schedule</u></a>. CCB said: </p><div><blockquote><p>I got so many messages from that and it was so disappointing too because people were talking poorly about my husband. I was like, ‘No, no’ ... it was actually a really beautiful conversation and it’s a way to talk about marriage and how we worked through what both of us were feeling and came to a really good conclusion that now — another 10 years later — we’re both really happy with.</p></blockquote></div><p>It sounds like fans did not take away Candace Cameron Bure’s intended message about the conversation between the spouses. </p><p>I’m sure it’s not uncommon for people to feel some type of way about their significant other having any kind of physical relationship with another actor, even though that’s what the job dictates. If this is an issue that cropped up 10 years ago, and she’s still appearing in several movies each year, it would seem they found a solution they can both live with. Candace Cameron Bure said they even watched her <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-christmas-movie-schedule-teaming-up-former-hallmark-star-cameron-mathison"><u>movie with another former Hallmark star</u></a> together, as she continued:</p><div><blockquote><p>My husband and I watched ‘Home Sweet Christmas’ together last night. We sat on the couch, just the two of us, and watched the whole movie. Right at the end ... I was like, ‘Oh, OK, it’s over!’ and I switched the channel right before the kiss. … He is so proud and supportive. It’s just one of those things where we don’t have to watch the last three seconds of the movie.</p></blockquote></div><p>Even though the lead actors often don’t kiss until the waning seconds of one of the TV movies, during the episode of <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-candace-cameron-bure-podcast/id1649600581"><u><em>The Candace Cameron Bure Podcast</em></u></a> in question, she actually indicated that wasn’t the only part of the rom-coms that Val Bure took issue with. In a conversation years ago, she said on the podcast:</p><div><blockquote><p>Val was like, ‘I don’t even really like watching you — regardless of a kiss at the end — I really don’t like watching you being close to someone else.’ I get that, so we’ve had those struggles and a lot of conversation and prayer.</p></blockquote></div><p>The <em>Full House</em> actress said she decided to turn down roles that would require kissing, but that’s not what her husband wanted for her. She said:</p><div><blockquote><p>I think the reality of that took a spin and a turn for Val in his heart ... but then it came to a point where he said, ‘I can handle it and I don’t want you to give up your entire career.</p></blockquote></div><p>While these quotes have gone viral thanks to TikTok, it’s not the first time Candace Cameron Bure has discussed this, and it apparently goes back to her <em>Fuller House</em> days. She told <a href="https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/candace-camerons-husband-doesnt-like-her-kissing-costars-w503499/"><u>US Weekly</u></a> in 2017 that she was “over it” when it came to the love triangle between DJ, Steve (Scott Weinger) and Matt (John Brotherton). She recalled that Val Bure had only visited her on set once or twice for that reason, saying:</p><div><blockquote><p>He actually doesn’t watch anything that I do for that very reason. Because it is uncomfortable and I totally understand and respect it. He’s always held a position that, ‘I don’t want to ever tell you not to or stop you from your job,’ and all that, but he doesn’t want to watch and I respect that. And it’s the boundaries.</p></blockquote></div><p>It sounds like she and Val Bure have had lots of open conversations about what they’re comfortable with, and I’m sure that kind of communication is important to having a marriage last as long as theirs has — even if others don’t understand.</p>

                                <p><em>The View </em>remains an integral part of the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2024-tv-show-premiere-dates-schedule"><u>2024 TV schedule</u></a>, even after more than <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/amidst-whoopi-goldbergs-the-view-suspension-the-talk-show-is-bringing-back-some-og-favorites"><u>25 years on the air</u></a>. Its discussions about current events, politics, celebrities and more — led by moderator Whoopi Goldberg, mainstay Joy Behar and several others — have resulted in dozens of Daytime Emmy Awards. One can see how choosing the right co-hosts would be important to ABC, and apparently, when the network wants you, they get you. Former co-host Candace Cameron Bure revealed that she turned down <em>The View</em> “multiple times” before her one-season stint and explained how they eventually won her over.</p><p>Candace Cameron Bure — best known for <em>Full House</em> and Great American Family’s TV rom-coms (she’s got three on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/upcoming-christmas-movie-schedule-streaming-and-tv-dates"><u>2024 Christmas movie schedule</u></a>) — joined <em>The View</em> in 2015, but she stayed for just one season. The co-hosts are typically of varying ages, races, economic backgrounds and political leanings, but at the time Bure was the only panelist with a conservative view. She opened up recently to Allie Schnacky on a <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DCXjBKTRZ2i/"><u>clip from </u><u><em>The JWLKRS Podcast</em></u></a>, revealing just how hard they fought to get her on the show, despite her objections. The actress said:</p><div><blockquote><p>I tried to turn that job down multiple times. I know they talk so much politics on the show, and I’m not comfortable with that, so no. And then they came back and they were like, ‘We’re actually switching it. We’re not really gonna talk about politics that much.’ Well I live in L.A. and I’m not moving to New York, so no. And they said, ‘We’ll fly you back and forth every week.’ They just kept upping the ante. Like everything I tried to say no to, they had a solution for it. </p></blockquote></div><p>It sounds like ABC really wanted Candace Cameron Bure’s contribution, and the powers that be were willing to make any and all arrangements for it to happen. In the end, she agreed, saying she felt God was calling her to do the show, but that certainly didn’t make it easy.</p><p>For one thing, the co-hosts did not back away from the subject of politics as she’d been promised, which she’s said resulted in her doing hours of homework each night to be able to contribute to the conversation. The network did keep its promise regarding travel, but flying back and forth from Los Angeles to New York every week proved to be too much, and she said <em>The View </em>was the “<a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2495269/why-the-view-was-the-hardest-job-yet-for-fuller-houses-candace-cameron-bure"><u>most difficult job I’ve had</u></a>.” </p><p>CCB blamed that constant travel when she left the daytime talk show in 2016, but she has since opened up about the other aspects that she said <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-talks-having-ptsd-following-her-time-hosting-on-the-view"><u>gave her PTSD</u></a>. She’s voiced her opinion that the show <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2455232/candace-cameron-bure-thinks-the-view-needs-another-conservative-host"><u>needs more than one conservative co-host</u></a>, because she often had to fight to speak her mind, which was especially difficult knowing she was the only one at the table to have her opinions. </p><p>Needless to say, Candace Cameron Bure has <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2573743/following-meghan-mccain-departure-candace-cameron-bure-on-returning-the-view"><u>no interest in returning to </u><u><em>The View </em></u><u>full-time</u></a>, but she maintains that she’s grateful she accepted the opportunity because of how much she learned and grew. I guess ABC’s persistence was worth it then?</p>

                                <p>Candace Cameron Bure has been a fixture within the entertainment industry for decades now, as she rose to prominence as a cast member on <em>Full House</em> (one of the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/10-Greatest-TGIF-Comedies-All-Time-Ranked-120697.html"><u>best TGIF comedies</u></a>). She eventually became a staple on Hallmark, before <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/hallmark-stars-who-left-for-gac-family-and-who-are-definitely-staying"><u>leaving the network for GAF</u></a> – where she continues to produce and star in movies. Apparently, though, something happened on one of her podcasts that had one fan on the alert in regard to her possibly retiring from acting. Bure eventually responded, suggesting that there’s more to the story. </p><p>As of late, the 48-year-old actress has been promoting her latest entry on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/upcoming-christmas-movie-schedule-streaming-and-tv-dates"><u>2024 Christmas movie schedule</u></a> – Great American Family’s <em>Home Sweet Christmas</em>. The former sitcom star just recently shared an <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DDCzBA6RiCH/?img_index=1"><u>Instagram</u></a> post in conjunction with GAF, which included stills from the new movie. Fans took to the comment section to express their excitement, but at least one person asked if she is “really retiring from acting.” With that, the star shared this response: </p><div><blockquote><p>No. The clip is misleading. There is much more to the conversation on my podcast!</p></blockquote></div><div  class="fancy-box"><div class="fancy_box-title">More on Candace Cameron Bure</div><div class="fancy_box_body"><figure class="van-image-figure "  ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' ><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:56.25%;"><img id="czBMSfC8PYuHj36dTniHA" name="candacecameronburefullhouseseason8screenshot.jpg" caption="" alt="Candace Cameron Bure as DJ Tanner on Full House." src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/czBMSfC8PYuHj36dTniHA.jpg" mos="" link="" align="" fullscreen="" width="" height="" attribution="" endorsement="" class="pinterest-pin-exclude"></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=""><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: Max)</span></figcaption></figure><p class="fancy-box__body-text"><a data-analytics-id="inline-link" href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-watched-full-house-understand-whyshows-not-off-air-35-years">Candace Cameron Bure Watched Full House For The First Time In Ages: ‘Oh…I Understand Why The Show’s Not Been Off The Air In 35 Years’</a></p></div></div><p>As mentioned in the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2M7fSz9KHA&t=6s"><u>YouTube</u></a> video, Valeri Bure has remained supportive of his wife’s acting career but, even so, the <em>Aurora Teagarden Mysteries</em> alum has made changes to her relationship to Tinseltown. For instance, the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/why-did-candace-cameron-bure-family-leave-los-angeles"><u>Bure family left Hollywood</u></a>, with LA native Candace Cameron saying that they “didn’t feel safe anymore” due to a lack of privacy. (Her <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bures-daughter-natasha-why-moving-out-hollywood-chris-hemsworth-ryan-reynolds"><u>daughter, Natasha, also left for Texas</u></a> of her own accord.)</p><p>Despite all of that, fans should know that the <em>Unsung Hero</em> alum is very much still active when it comes to the entertainment industry. As previously mentioned, she co-starred in <em>Home Sweet Christmas</em>, which premiered this past weekend. Back in November, she also marked the release of another film she led called <em>A Christmas Less Traveled</em>. Candace <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-about-hallmark-exit-and-what-she-loves-about-gaf"><u>Cameron Bure recently opened up about leaving</u></a> Hallmark for GAF and, during that chat, she opened up about how much she loves being a creative force at the latter network. So, rest assured, as it seems that she has no plans to retire as of yet. </p><p>Those who’d like to check out the latest Christmas-centric movies from Candace Cameron Bure should check their local listings and remain tuned into GAF throughout the holiday season.</p>

She has worked at multiple entertainment outlets, including as a Writer and Editor at Nerds and Beyond, TV and Movie News Writer at CBR, and a Freelance Writer at TV Fanatic, writing about topics she&#039;s passionate about like pop culture. She graduated from the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh with a degree in Multimedia Journalism in 2020, writing for the school’s newspaper during her time there. Her expertise in entertainment is mainly in television, but she has written about movies, music, and local events as well.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What They&#039;re Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Megan specializes in television writing, particularly procedurals. 9-1-1 and the Chicago Franchise are currently her favorites, where she can be found obsessively watching the latest episode or coming up with theories. She also loves to listen to music, with Taylor Swift being on the top of her playlist. She isn’t a huge sports person but will occasionally root for the Green Bay Packers, Milwaukee Brewers, and Wisconsin Badgers. As for movies, it’s hard to pick a favorite, but the Marvel Cinematic Universe reigns as her favorite franchise. She used to be a book nerd in grade school, with her favorite genre being fantasy or YA. Her favorite snack is sour cream and onion Pringles, while pizza is her all-time favorite food.&lt;/p&gt;

The TGIF sitcom is one of the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/best-shows-streaming-on-max">best shows streaming on Max</a> and still remains popular to this day even almost 30 years after its finale. While watching the series for the first time in ages, Candace Cameron Bure came to a realization about <em>Full House</em>’s popularity.</p><p>The <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-about-hallmark-exit-and-what-she-loves-about-gaf">former Hallmark star</a> was a guest on Andrea Barber and Jodie Sweetin’s <em>Full House </em>rewatch podcast <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DC2CgKQyS7_/"><em>How Rude, Tanneritos!</em></a>, co-hosting with Barber. The two were discussing and recapping Season 3, Episode 22, “Three Men and Another Baby,” which saw the Tanners babysitting a neighbor’s infant while Joey is stumped over D.J.’s math homework. Bure shared her excitement in co-hosting with Barber and shared what she realized while watching <em>Full House</em>:</p><div><blockquote><p>I haven’t watched Full House in so long, so many years. I’m watching the episode, I’m laughing out loud, and then I was like, ‘Oh, now I understand why the show’s never been off the air in 35 years.’ I’m like, ‘This is so sweet, it’s so cute, like all the things.’</p></blockquote></div><p>While <em>Full House </em>may not exactly be airing new episodes on ABC anymore, it is still a consistent fan-favorite on streaming and is one of the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/sitcoms-that-are-perfect-next-long-binge">sitcoms perfect for long-time viewing</a> with nine seasons. The series ran from 1987 to 1995 and has even found new fans, remaining so popular that the <em>Fuller House</em> sequel series lasted for five seasons for those with a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/netflix-subscription-the-plans-the-price-and-whats-included">Netflix subscription</a>. It’s sweet that Bure is now basically coming to terms with just how magical <em>Full House </em>was and still is and why it resonates with so many people. From a viewer’s standpoint, that is!</p><p>Candace Cameron Bure’s <em>Full House </em>rewatch comes months after she reacted to a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/full-house-candace-cameron-bure-reacts-news-story-adding-dj-tanner-clip">local news story adding ‘90s flair with a clip of D.J.</a> taking the SATs, proving that even an episode from the ‘90s can still very much have content relevant in today’s age. It's yet another reason why the show is still loved on top of the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/retro-tv-theme-songs-that-still-slap">retro theme song that still slaps</a>. Whether Bure has been watching the entire series or just the singular episode is unknown, but now I need her thoughts on the rest of the series.</p><p>Even though Bure doesn’t watch <em>Full House </em>very often, she still posts about the show from time to time. She previously <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-celebrated-36-years-as-full-houses-dj-tanner">celebrated 36 years of being cast as D.J. Tanner</a> in 2023 and <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/full-house-actor-classic-reaction-candace-cameron-bure-shared-throwback-photos-cant-get-enough">shared sweet throwback photos of her and on-screen beau Scott Weinger</a>. Additionally, she is still close to much of the cast despite her <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/jodie-sweetin-candace-cameron-bure-feud-full-house-co-star-calls-out-not-liking-last-supper-olympics-opening-ceremony">falling out with Jodie Sweetin</a>. Aside from appearing on <em>How Rude, Tanneritos!</em>, she gave <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/see-john-stamos-candace-cameron-bure-lovely-messages-full-house-co-star-dave-coulier-cancer-battle">well wishes to Dave Coulier after his cancer diagnosis</a> was made public, and frequently speaks highly of <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/full-house-star-bob-saget-is-dead-at-65">the late Bob Saget</a>, who died in 2022, and expresses how much she misses her on-screen dad.</p><p>It wouldn’t be surprising if <em>Full House </em>continues to make people laugh for years to come. Even if it’s not one of the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/100-best-tv-sitcoms-of-all-time-ranked">best sitcoms of all time</a>, the show still comes pretty close. The comedy even got a revival even when it <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/tv-shows-that-really-did-not-need-reboots">may not have needed a reboot</a>. Whether or not it will get <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/jodie-sweetin-has-idea-full-house-cast-should-do-another-series-i-dont-hate-it">another series in the future with a <em>Golden Girls</em>-esque bent</a> is unknown, but for now, those with a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2570432/subscribing-to-hbo-max-what-to-know-about-the-price-options-and-what-the-streaming-service-offers">Max subscription</a> can laugh and cry while watching <em>Full House</em>, just like Bure. </p>

On Sundays during football season, she can be found cheering on the New Orleans Saints with her husband and two daughters. Who Dat! She loves to read but usually settles for a pop culture podcast, and thinks the best weekends are spent cooking and playing cards with friends and family, preferably with some UFC fights or other sporting event on TV.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She&#039;s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: Football season, Pumpkin Spice Lattes and everything related to fall and cooler weather.

Some actors have popped up in unexpected places — Hallmark queen <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/lacey-chabert-next-big-christmas-movie-nog-hallmark"><u>Lacey Chabert on Netflix</u></a>, for instance, and GAF’s Jen Lilley on the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/everything-new-and-coming-soon-to-hulu"><u>Hulu movie schedule</u></a> —  and there’s been a lot of reflection from the actors on the networks they’ve chosen to work with and why. Candace Cameron Bure is looking at her own career choices, including her infamous <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/following-danica-mckellar-hallmark-star-candace-cameron-bure-just-signed-a-deal-with-another-network"><u>2022 Hallmark exit</u></a>, and she opened up about why she loves working at GAF.</p><p>Several <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/hallmark-stars-who-left-for-gac-family-and-who-are-definitely-staying"><u>Hallmark actors jumped ship to Great American Family</u></a> a couple of years ago, but none of the exits made quite as big a splash as Candace Cameron Bure’s. She recently talked to <a href="https://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/news/candace-cameron-bure-loves-great-american-familys-stories-of-faith/"><u>US Weekly</u></a> about <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-explains-why-she-left-hallmark-for-gaf"><u>why she chose to leave Hallmark</u></a>, and it doesn’t sound like it was the easiest decision to make. The <em>Full House</em> alum said:</p><div><blockquote><p>Hallmark has been so loved for so many years, and I loved working there. So it’s like, how can you leave? And it’s just like, well, things grow and things change and there are new chapters, and I love that I’m getting to build a new network and one that truly carries a message that’s more meaningful for me personally.</p></blockquote></div><p>Candace Cameron Bure’s faith seemingly played a big role in the decision, as well as the opportunity to advance her career as GAF’s chief creative officer. She’s “<a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-breaks-down-reason-leaving-hallmark-for-gaf"><u>more than an actress</u></a>,” after all, and the new position was a chance to grow at a network that reflected her own priorities of putting faith and family first. Turns out that’s still what she enjoys most about her job with Great American Family, as she said:</p><div><blockquote><p>I love that we are bringing stories of faith. We have ones that aren’t about faith and more in the traditional rom-com space, but our viewers really want messages that are more meaningful. We know the reason we celebrate Christmas is because of the birth of Christ. I’ve made tons of [movies] that don’t ever mention the real meaning of Christmas. So just the fact that we mention God or there’s a scripture or there’s a biblical message that might be a proverb, someone might hear it and go, ‘Oh, that’s really good advice.’ They might not realize it comes from the Bible, but we love putting that in the movies.</p></blockquote></div><p>Candace Cameron Bure isn’t the only one reflecting on her career choices this holiday. Former Hallmark star <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/after-danica-mckellar-left-hallmark-for-gaf-explained-why"><u>Danica McKellar said she’s grateful</u></a> for Great American Media CEO Bill Abbott bringing her on and allowing her to have more of a say creatively in her movies and also to weave some of her faith into them.</p><p><em>A Cinderella Christmas Ball</em> — Danica McKellar’s offering on the TV schedule — premieres at 8 p.m. ET Friday, November 29, while Candace Cameron Bure’s <em>A Christmas Less Traveled</em> premiered on November 16, and next she’s set to <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/candace-cameron-bure-christmas-movie-schedule-teaming-up-former-hallmark-star-cameron-mathison"><u>star with fellow Hallmark veteran Cameron Mathison</u></a> in <em>Home Sweet Christmas</em> at 8 p.m. ET Sunday, December 1, on Great American Family.</p>

                                <p>Earlier this month, Dave Coulier was candid with the public, as he revealed his cancer diagnosis. The <em>Full House</em> alum is currently battling Stage 3 non-Hodgkins lymphoma and has begun treatment accordingly. Coulier has since <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/see-john-stamos-candace-cameron-bure-lovely-messages-full-house-co-star-dave-coulier-cancer-battle"><u>received support from Candace Cameron Bure</u></a> as well as other former co-stars Shortly after Coulier revealed the news, Bure shared a supportive message. Now, the actress is getting candid about her longtime friend’s health, including how “devastating” it was when she received the call. </p><p>It’s no secret that the cast and crew of <em>Full</em> and <em>Fuller House</em> have forged a family dynamic off camera. They’ve been through high moments, like marriages and child births. And, on the other hand, they’ve also seen each other through tough times, including co-star <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/full-house-star-bob-saget-is-dead-at-65"><u>Bob Saget’s death</u></a> in 2022. Considering their closeness, Candace Cameron Bure was apparently a bit shaken when she learned about the Joey Gladstone actor’s cancer diagnosis: </p><div><blockquote><p>A cancer diagnosis is so difficult. It felt very devastating when Dave called. Dave and [his wife] Melissa called and let us know personally before it went out to the press. But we know that that cancer that he has is very treatable and many people have gone into remission for many, many years from that. So, you know, it was like the best diagnosis you could get from devastating news in that sense, so it feels very hopeful. Dave has an incredible outlook on it. He’s very positive.</p></blockquote></div><p>Dave Coulier has indeed been staying upbeat amid his health situation, and it sounds like the GAF actress is seeking to do the same. However, she also explained to <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/video/6365011928112"><u>Fox News</u></a> that the news wasn’t all that easy to process in the beginning. The DJ Tanner actress initially had a hard time accepting what had come to pass. Later in her interview, she went on to reveal that moment that the reality of Coulier’s diagnosis really hit her: </p><div><blockquote><p>I told Dave – it didn’t hit me for a few weeks, because when you hear that someone has cancer, at least for me, I didn’t want to accept it, and you don’t wanna think about it. It’s like, ‘OK, what do we do? Let’s get past this.’ And then when you see the head shaved, when I saw him start losing his hair, that’s when it kind of hit. And that’s when reality came in. … You just feel helpless when you’re on the sidelines.</p></blockquote></div><p>While Candace Cameron Bure possessed those feelings, she’s now aiming to be proactive amid this situation. She and her co-stars have been finding ways to lend their support to their co-star and surrogate family member in various ways. John Stamos, for example, wore a bald cap as a way of standing in solidarity with Dave Coulier, who lost hair due to his treatments. While <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/people-complained-john-stamos-wore-bald-cap-in-support-of-full-house-co-star-and-dave-coulier-response"><u>Stamos was criticized for his gesture</u></a>, Coulier defended him. Bure also lauded her on-screen uncle and explained how she’s supporting the veteran comic: </p><div><blockquote><p>And we can laugh, and we can make as many jokes. And that’s how Dave loves to handle things is through humor, which is why we loved that John put the bald cap on. It was great, and Dave thought it was hilarious. It’s a great way to support him. And I told Dave and Mel the best way I can support you is pray for you every day, because you know my faith is strong.</p></blockquote></div><p>For years now, <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/following-backlash-over-comments-candace-cameron-bure-opens-up-about-faith-and-filming-christmas-movies"><u>Candace Cameron Bure has discussed her religious faith</u></a> and how important it is to her. She’s talked about <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/following-controversy-candace-cameron-bure-talks-growing-up-in-hollywood-and-going-against-the-grain-when-it-came-to-faith"><u>“going against the grain”</u></a> while growing up in Hollywood as a Christian. Prayer isn’t the only way that she plans to help out her co-star either, as she explained that she also offered to help them in any other way that she can. </p><p>It’s absolutely unfortunate that Dave Coulier has to contend with such a medical situation, though it’s heartwarming to see his co-stars show up for him at this time. It’s a testament to the notion that the ties amongst the ensemble cast of one of the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/10-Greatest-TGIF-Comedies-All-Time-Ranked-120697.html"><u>best TGIF comedies</u></a> remain strong decades after the OG series ended. Let’s collectively wish Coulier, his wife, Melissa and those who are a part of their support system all the best. </p><p>You can stream <em>Full House</em> now using a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2570432/subscribing-to-hbo-max-what-to-know-about-the-price-options-and-what-the-streaming-service-offers"><u>Max subscription</u></a>.

                                                                <dc:description><![CDATA[ &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Background&lt;/strong&gt;: Nick Venable is an Assistant Managing Editor, and the TV Editor. His humble origin story with CinemaBlend began all the way back in the pre-streaming era, circa 2009, as a freelancing DVD reviewer and TV recapper. After rising up through the ranks covering Movies, Nick leapfrogged over to the small screen to cover more and more television news and interviews, eventually taking over the section for the current era. Born in Louisiana and currently living in Texas — Who Dat Nation over America’s Team all day, all night — Nick spent several years in the hospitality industry, and also worked as a 911 operator. And if you ever happened to hear his music or read his comics/short stories, you have his sympathy. His love for his wife and daughters is almost equaled by his love of gasp-for-breath laughter and gasp-for-breath horror. A lifetime spent in the vicinity of a television screen led to his current dream job, as well as his knowledge of too many TV themes and ad jingles.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He&#039;s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: Nick is one of those people who won’t necessarily insert a Monty Python reference into every conversation, but is still mentally equipped to do so. Beyond such appreciation for surreal UK comedy, Nick also indulges in as much horror splendor as possible, from Stephen King novels to James Tynion IV comics to Freddy Krueger one-liners to all things Mike Flanagan. Throw in a dash of NFL, some 311 and Weird Al, fried crawfish poboys, bourbon, ‘90s-era pro wrestling, crossword puzzles and mystery-driven video games, and baby, you got a stew going. (Nick will insert an Arrested Development reference into every conversation, if possible.)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What He&#039;s Excited About&lt;/strong&gt;: Anything Jeff Lemire, Tom King and W. Maxwell Prince think of, ever. More of Kelly Reilly’s deliriously fierce performances on Yellowstone. HBO’s The Last of Us. Clone High’s return. Colin Farrell’s Penguin being in every movie/TV show/breakfast cereal.&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

Former star Dave Coulier has kept fans intrigued by the <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/10-Greatest-TGIF-Comedies-All-Time-Ranked-120697.html"><u>all-time TGIF fave</u></a>’s history by heading up the solo-hosted project <em>Full House Rewind</em>, but his latest update for fans sadly wasn’t so comedic, as the actor revealed he was diagnosed with cancer in October, specifically stage 3 non-Hodgkins lymphoma.</p><p>The message was definitely a shock to Coulier’s family, friends and followers, and in his interview with <a href="https://people.com/dave-coulier-told-full-house-costars-about-cancer-diagnosis-in-a-group-text-exclusive-8744074"><u>People</u></a>, he shared that he’d actually revealed his somber diagnosis update with the bulk of the <em>Full House</em> clan via group message, saying:</p><div><blockquote><p>I didn't want them to hear it from someone else, so I sent a text message out. [The response] was immediate. It was just this outpouring of, ‘I will be there. You just name the time, and I know you're in great hands with Mel, but what can we do?’ It really is overwhelming the love that we have for each other. We've been there for so many years for each other and it's pretty remarkable.</p></blockquote></div><p>It's completely understandable that Dave Coulier would immediately reach out to former co-stars after talking it out with his wife Melissa Coulier. He apparently shared the news with  John Stamos, Candace Cameron Bure, Jodie Sweetin,  Andrea Barber, Lori Loughlin, and Scott Weinger, as well as the show's creator Jeff Franklin. </p><h2 id="candace-cameron-bure-shares-support-for-dave-coulier">Candace Cameron Bure Shares Support For Dave Coulier</h2><p>Obviously those who were in the personal chat chimed in with personal messages to Coulier himself, but some also took to social media to publicly share support for the comedian. Candace Cameron Bure took to  Instagram Stories to share the following message over an interview clip of Coulier on <em>Today</em>. As she put it:</p><div><blockquote><p>I love me some @dcoulier❤❤ We praying through this journey with him & @melissacoulier and are with him every step of the way.</p><p>Candace Cameron Bure IG Stories</p></blockquote></div><p>It's worth noting that Dave Coulier has reportedly been the most <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/candace-cameron-bure-seemingly-trying-bury-hatchet-fuller-house-family-dave-coulier">open to remaining friendly with Bure</a> following the backlash the actress faced after making those "traditional marriage" comments regarding her then-new role behind the scenes at Great American Family. (Jodie Sweetin was also forgiving, but definitely <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/jodie-sweetin-speaks-out-on-being-an-lgbtq-ally-after-brouhaha-over-candace-cameron-bures-traditional-marriage-comments">defended the LGBTQ+ community all-around</a>.)</p><h2 id="john-stamos-message-for-dave-coulier">John Stamos' Message For Dave Coulier</h2><p>For many <em>Full House</em> fans, it's almost instinctual to thinking about John Stamos in the same breath as Dave Coulier, considering Joey and Jesse's friendship on the show carried over so strongly into the real world for the actors. So it likely would have been weirder if the current animated Iron Man voice actor hadn't posted anything specifically directed at Coulier's downer news. </p><div><blockquote><p>My brother from day 1. Love you @dcoulier and I’ll be by your side through it all.</p><p>John Stamos IG</p></blockquote></div><p>Melissa Coulier shared her appreciation for Stamos in the comments of his post, with other supportive messages and replies coming from <em>Everybody Loves Raymond</em> vet Brad Garrett, the <em>Full House Rewind</em> podcast page and more. </p><p>Dave Coulier's diagnosis reveal comes a little less than three years after <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/full-house-star-bob-saget-is-dead-at-65"><u>Bob Saget suddenly died</u></a> in his hotel room after hitting his head in a fall. And fans like me are definitely hoping that the <em>Out of Control</em> vet will make it through treatments as happily and healthily as possible. </p><div  class="fancy-box"><div class="fancy_box-title">MORE ON FULL HOUSE:</div><div class="fancy_box_body"><p class="fancy-box__body-text"><a data-analytics-id="inline-link" href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/jodie-sweetin-clarified-common-full-house-misconception-mind-blown"><strong>Jodie Sweetin Just Clarified A Common Full House Misconception, And My Mind Is Blown</strong></a></p></div></div><p>As an additional tidbit for <em>Full House</em> fans that isn’t quite so downbeat: Dave Coulier revealed in the latest episode of <em>Full House Rewind</em> that he now has a new co-host in the form of fellow sitcom vet Marla Sokoloff, who famously portrayed Gia Mahan on both the mothership series and its follow-up. </p><p>For those who want to relive the fun of Joey Gladstone's Popeye impression and more, <em>Full House</em> is available to stream in full with a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2570432/subscribing-to-hbo-max-what-to-know-about-the-price-options-and-what-the-streaming-service-offers">Max subscription</a> or a <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/disney-plus-price-plans-and-cost-increases">Disney+ subscription</a>.</p>

She’s been kicking out news stories at CinemaBlend since 2007 and joined the full-time staff in 2014. She oversees news content, hiring and training for the site, and her areas of expertise include theme parks, rom-coms, Hallmark (particularly Christmas movie season), reality TV, celebrity interviews and primetime. She loves a good animated movie.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jessica has a Masters in Library Science degree from Indiana University, and used to be found behind a reference desk most definitely not shushing people. She now uses those skills in researching and tracking down information in very different ways.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She’s Into&lt;/strong&gt;: A former soccer player and recent tennis addict, Jessica also enjoys running, both of the distance and sprint variety. When not at the movie theater or in a theme park, her other free time is spent in book clubs, hiking, drinking wine, binge-watching, keeping tabs on celebrity fashion and riding rollercoasters. Has a serious Hallmark habit and an even bigger record-buying habit. Will bake for compliments.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What She’s Excited About Right Now&lt;/strong&gt;: &amp;nbsp;Hallmark Christmas movie season. Wearing socks to bed. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; ]]></dc:description>

                                <p>One of the big <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/television/ice-baths-what-kim-kardashian-harry-styles-others-said-about-benefits"><u>celebrity trends has been the ice bath</u></a>/cold plunge over the last few years. Celebs like sci-fi star <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/katee-sackhoffs-the-latest-celeb-to-jump-into-the-outdoor-bath-trend-and-her-reason-makes-sense"><u>Katee Sackhoff have tried outdoor tubs</u></a> and indoor tubs to chill out – figuratively, but also literally. The plunge is actually supposed to help release stress and tension in the body and improve circulation. Candace Cameron Bure is the latest celebrity to give the chilly pastime a whirl, and she’s giving black bikini summer energy. Or at least, end of black bikini summer energy.  </p><p>It rained at my place yesterday and knocked some leaves that were already starting to slightly change color out of the trees. The sky is grey and dismal and flowering plants are starting to lose their blooms. Really, over the past few days it’s been the first time I’ve felt that fall tinge in the air, as well. So I suppose it’s fitting Bure is saying goodbye to summer with a cold plunge. Here’s her timidly getting in. </p><figure class="van-image-figure  inline-layout" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style="max-width:1280px;"><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:172.73%;"><img id="5Era5vRNmEjKEa6TDNSBPn" name="bure1" alt="Candace Cameron Bure shares video trying out a cold plunge in black bikini." src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/5Era5vRNmEjKEa6TDNSBPn.jpg" mos="" align="middle" fullscreen="" width="1280" height="2211" attribution="" endorsement="" class=""></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=" inline-layout"><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: Candace Cameron Bure)</span></figcaption></figure><p>Honestly, she’s in side profile, but you can kind of see her gasping as she steps into the water. She also mentioned it's 48 degrees. I like my pool water to feel like bath water, so I can’t even imagine what this sort of experience would be like. Actually, I sort of can, because there's a second look at Bure more fully submerging herself and pushing out air as she tries to keep warm. She's hugging her hands to her chest in a way that really explains how cold the whole thing must be. </p><figure class="van-image-figure  inline-layout" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style="max-width:1280px;"><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:171.72%;"><img id="mXQo2ZwngZNfkGVQofk2c6" name="bure2" alt="Candace Cameron Bure hugs her arms to her chest as she gets all the way into the cold plunge like a champ." src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/mXQo2ZwngZNfkGVQofk2c6.jpg" mos="" align="middle" fullscreen="" width="1280" height="2198" attribution="" endorsement="" class=""></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=" inline-layout"><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: Candace Cameron Bure)</span></figcaption></figure><p>Black bikini summer has been a thing celebrities have partaken in for a while now. The <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/kim-kardashian-black-bikini-summer-stunning-swim-pics"><u>Kardashian sisters have rocked the look</u></a>, as has <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/sydney-sweeney-summer-black-bikini-while-hanging-hawaii"><u>frequent bikini wearer Sydney Sweeney</u></a>. Emily <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/streaming-news/emily-ratajkowski-continues-the-summer-of-the-black-bikini-and-hers-has-bling"><u>Ratajkowski has her own bikini line</u></a> and her own take on the look. But this is the first time I’ve seen someone like Bure take the black bikini look an entire step further and turn it into a whole experience. Honestly, after watching the footage, I think she’s a total champ. It’s certainly one heck of a way to bid summer goodbye and prepare for fall. </p><p>Bure is not the first celebrity to take an ice bath or cold plunge. (In fact, Hugh Jackman's even shown off his penchant for <a href="https://www.cinemablend.com/news/2559795/hugh-jackman-shared-the-results-of-his-polar-plunge-and-im-cold-just-thinking-about-it">taking a "polar plunge"</a> in the actual ocean.)  But I appreciate she shared the experience, even though it looked like she had to tough it out rather than enjoy it. Hopefully, though, all the benefits that ice baths and cold plunges tout really came through for her. Otherwise, I guess it's always something she can say she did once. </p><p><br></p>
