Los Angeles, CA – Candace Cameron Bure and the cast of “Full House” remain incredibly close even 36 years after the sitcom first aired. In a recent video chat, Bure, along with John Stamos, Dave Coulier, Jodie Sweetin, and Andrea Barber, gathered to honor the late Bob Saget on the two-year anniversary of his passing.
The bond between the cast members is so strong that Bure considers them her “literally family.” She revealed that they are constantly in contact and shared that they have a special connection that goes beyond just being co-stars.
Bure emphasized how important it is for the cast to honor Saget’s memory. She explained that the anniversary of his death is always a day filled with mixed emotions but that they will continue to pay tribute to him publicly because of the love they have for him.
Saget’s widow, Kelly Rizzo, spoke of the specialness of the recent virtual reunion. She mentioned how she missed the livestream but was touched by the love and support shown by the cast and fans. Rizzo also shared a heartwarming anecdote about visiting Saget’s grave site on the anniversary and discovering that Lori Loughlin, another member of the “Full House” cast, had beaten her to it and left a large flower arrangement.
Bure, known for her strong family values, recently appeared on FOX’s “We are Family” where she performed a duet with her cousin Kenzie. The actress explained that the show appealed to her because it revolves around the theme of family, which is also a central aspect of her own life.
Despite having her own close-knit family, Bure expressed gratitude for the enduring bond she shares with her “Full House” castmates. To her, they are more than just former co-stars – they are her second family.
The connection between the “Full House” cast serves as a reminder of the lasting impact that strong relationships can have, both on and off screen.
