Candace Cameron Bure has always been a bold personality, known for her candid opinions and willingness to speak up on various topics. As the actress who played DJ Tanner on “Fuller House,” she has consistently been in the public eye, sometimes for her family life and other times for her personal views. Her Instagram account, which boasts over 4.9 million followers, often features posts that spark conversation—some of which have led to controversy.
In September 2020, Bure posted a series of photos with her husband, Valeri Bure, a former NHL player, on a bridge. The caption read, “sweet and spicy … 24 years and counting.” The first image showed Valeri kissing her cheek, while the second one was more intimate, with his hand on her breast as she smiled. While Bure saw it as a fun celebration of her long marriage, some of her followers found the post inappropriate. However, Bure stood by her decision, emphasizing that her relationship with Valeri is healthy and loving.
“I’m not embarrassed about my body or my marriage,” she told E! News. “For all the Christians that are questioning my post with my husband’s hand on my boob—my husband of 24 years—thinking it was inappropriate, it makes me laugh because it’s my husband. We have so much fun together. He can touch me anytime he wants, and I hope he does. This is what a healthy, good marriage and relationship is all about.”
Now, Bure has opened up about another aspect of her life—her children and their future partners.
Candace Cameron Bure wants her kids’ partners to ‘love Jesus’
Bure has never been shy about expressing her beliefs, whether on-air as a former co-host on “The View” or through her social media presence. But when it comes to her family, especially her children, her priorities are clear. “When I’m not working, I’m in full-time mom mode,” she said to Focus on the Family. “I love putting myself out there and connecting with my fans when I’m working, but when we come home, we’re just a family.”
As her children grow older and start dating, Bure has made it known that there is one key requirement for their future partners. “When it comes down to it, I just want [their significant others] to love Jesus the way I love Jesus,” she told Us Weekly. “That’s all I really want. Is that too much to ask for? Yeah. It’s not too much.”
She added that she’s open to setting up her children with potential matches if they seem like a good fit. “If you know they’re from a good family and you know they might get along, we’ll do [that]. For sure.” Bure’s expectations may seem straightforward, but they reflect her deep commitment to her faith and values.
- Her focus on faith is not just a personal choice—it’s something she believes is essential for her family’s future.
- She emphasizes that her standards are not overly strict, but rather rooted in her belief system.
- Bure’s approach highlights the importance of shared values in relationships, especially when it comes to family.
Bure’s stance on this matter shows how deeply her faith influences her decisions, even when it comes to her children’s relationships. While some may see it as a high standard, for Bure, it’s a non-negotiable part of her family’s legacy.
