Former “Full House” actress Candace Cameron Bure called the show’s cast her “family.”
In an interview with Fox News Digital, Bure, 47, who played the character of DJ Tanner in the sitcom, said she and former cast members Dave Coulier, John Stamos, Jodie Sweetin, and Andrea Barber are “close friends” who “keep in contact like constantly.”
“I always just get amused when you guys call them reunions because I’m like, ‘We’re literally family hanging out.’ But sometimes we do that publicly,” she shared.

Furthermore, Bure said the cast “reunions” are “always going to be a special but hard day in our lives,” due to the death of co-star Bob Saget.
“We’re always going to honor Bob for the rest of our lives and probably together and probably publicly because we love him so much and want to keep his memory alive. We’re family through and through,” Bure continued.

“I miss you always. I could use one of your hugs right now,” she wrote.
In an interview on the “Today” show in 2022, Bure recalled what it was like to work with Saget on the “Full House” set.
“I felt so safe with him,” she said.
Additionally, Bure said it was “one of the things that made Bob so special.”
“If you were hurting, he would hurt with you. You would see the tears well up in his eyes,” she explained.
Bure also remembered Saget as “a remarkable person.”
“And I’ve never had a friendship like the one I’ve had with him. And that’s why it makes it so hard,” she continued.
