“Full House” actress Candace Cameron Bure is celebrating that her former co-star Dave Coulier, who played Uncle Joey on the popular ABC sitcom, has been deemed cancer-free.
The actress celebrated the news on social media, writing, “DAVE IS CANCER FREE!!!! Join me in celebrating this AMAZING news — let’s shower him with all the love in the world.” Bure included a photo collection featuring snapshots of her and Coulier over the years, including a photo from the set of “Full House.”

Coulier, 65, was diagnosed with stage 3 non-Hodgkin Lymphoma last year, as he <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/full-house-actor-dave-coulier-reveals-aggressive-cancer-diagnosis">announced</a> in November.
The actor spoke with Parade in late February and again on Monday about his experience with cancer, plus getting the news that he was cancer free.
&#8220;[My wife Melissa Bring] and I waited for a week to get the biopsy results back, and there is no sign of cancer,&#8221; he told the outlet. &#8220;One of the few times in my life when &#8216;zero&#8217; has been a great number to hear.&#8221;
&#8220;I&#8217;ll tell you this,&#8221; Coulier said. &#8220;Today is the first day that I really feel like, &#8216;Wow, I&#8217;m feeling pretty darn good. I feel like myself.&#8217; And it&#8217;s today. So I get to celebrate that with you.&#8221;
Coulier said previously he was diagnosed with cancer after experiencing an upper respiratory infection with significant swelling in his lymph nodes.
The actor was instructed by his doctor to get PET and CT scans of the swollen area.
“Three days later, my doctors called me back and they said, ‘We wish we had better news for you, but you have non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and it’s called B cell and it’s very aggressive,’” Coulier said at the time.
“I went from, I got a little bit of a head cold to I have cancer, and it was pretty overwhelming,” he went on. “This has been a really fast roller coaster ride of a journey.”
Coulier said he’s remained positive and optimistic through it all thanks in large part to his family.
“When I first got the news, I was stunned, of course, because I didn’t expect it, and then reality settled in and I found myself remarkably calm with whatever the outcome was going to be,” he told People in November.
“I don’t know how to explain it, but there was an inner calm about all of it, and I think that that’s part of what I’ve seen with the women in my family go through,” he continued. “They really instilled that in me and inspired me in a way because they were magnificent going through what they went through, and I just thought, ‘I’m okay with this too.’ I’ve had an incredible life on a journey with incredible people around me and I’m okay. It does change perspective for sure.”
Coulier also shared some advice for his fans, saying, “Take great care of yourself, because there’s a lot to live for. And if that means talking with your doctors or getting a mammogram or a breast exam or colonoscopy, it can really make a big change in your life.”

U.S.

“Full House” actor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/celebrities">Dave Coulier</a> has disclosed that he has stage 3 <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/cancer">non-Hodgkin lymphoma</a>.
The 65-year-old made the announcement during an <a href="https://people.com/dave-coulier-non-hodgkin-lymphoma-exclusive-8743523">interview</a> with People magazine published on Wednesday. Coulier said he was diagnosed last month after experiencing an upper respiratory infection with significant swelling in his lymph nodes. 
The actor was instructed by his doctor to get PET and CT scans of the swollen area.
“Three days later, my doctors called me back and they said, ‘We wish we had better news for you, but you have non-Hodgkin&#8217;s lymphoma and it&#8217;s called B cell and it&#8217;s very aggressive,’” Coulier told the outlet. 
“I went from, I got a little bit of a head cold to I have cancer, and it was pretty overwhelming,” he went on. “This has been a really fast roller coaster ride of a journey.”
Coulier said he reacted to the news and made a plan with his wife, Melissa Bring, and his close friends. That included starting chemotherapy within the first two weeks.
“We all kind of put our heads together and said, ‘Okay, where are we going?’ And they had a very specific plan for how they were going to treat this,” he said, noting that his bone marrow test was negative. “At that point, my chances of curable went from something low to 90% range. And so that was a great day.” 
The “Full House” star also shaved his head in anticipation of losing his hair during the cancer treatments.
“That was really a conscious decision of, I&#8217;m going to meet this head-on, and I want people to know it&#8217;s my life,” Coulier added. “I&#8217;m not going to try and hide anything. I would rather talk about it and open the discussion and inspire people.”

The actor said he’s using his wife’s support as inspiration to keep going. “I&#8217;m going to be strong for her,” he told the outlet, also mentioning family members who have had cancer, including his mother, sister, and niece.
“When I first got the news, I was stunned, of course, because I didn&#8217;t expect it, and then reality settled in and I found myself remarkably calm with whatever the outcome was going to be,” he told People. 
“I don&#8217;t know how to explain it, but there was an inner calm about all of it, and I think that that&#8217;s part of what I&#8217;ve seen with the women in my family go through.

‘Full House’ Actor Dave Coulier Reveals ‘Aggressive’ Cancer Diagnosis

'Full House' Actor Dave Coulier Reveals 'Aggressive' Cancer Diagnosis

“Full House” star Jodie Sweetin defended the drag queen Last Supper parody at the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/paris-olympics" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Paris Olympics</a> after her fellow costar <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/candace-cameron-bure">Candace Cameron Bure</a> slammed it as “disgusting.”
During the opening ceremony at the 2024 Summer Olympics, a scene modeled after The Last Supper opened with an obese woman wearing an aureole as Jesus surrounded by drag queens as the Apostles, a decapitated head representing Marie Antoinette of the French Revolution, and drag queens dancing around children.
&#8220;Tell me you don&#8217;t know about art or history,&#8221; Sweetin wrote in a July 29 Instagram Story <a href="https://www.eonline.com/news/1405545/full-houses-jodie-sweetin-defends-olympics-drag-show-after-candace-cameron-bure-calls-it-disgusting">per E! News</a>, &#8220;without TELLING me you don&#8217;t know about art or history.&#8221;
Her post also included a video that started circulating online after Christians blasted the offensive scene, claiming that it wasn’t religious but inspired by the ancient Greek God Dionysus, who represents &#8220;feasting, festivity and ritual theater.&#8221;

Sweetin’s post comes one day after “Fuller House” star Candace Cameron Bure took to Instagram to blast the anti-Christian scene, as previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/disgusting-candace-cameron-bure-says-shes-sad-for-souls-after-olympics-opening-ceremony">reported</a>.
“I love the Olympic Games,” Bure said, mentioning that her husband Valeri Bure, a retired professional hockey player, and several other family members, were Olympic competitors.
“The Olympic Games have always brought me so much joy. It’s the best of the best athletes in the world competing for the title,” she added.
“So to watch such an incredible and wonderful event that’s gonna take place over the next two weeks and see the opening ceremonies completely blaspheme and mock the Christian faith with their interpretation of the Last Supper was disgusting,” Bure continued. “And it made me so sad. And someone said, ‘You shouldn’t be sad. You should be mad about it.’ And I’m like, ‘Trust me. It makes me mad.’ But I’m more sad, because I’m sad for souls.”

She also mentioned in her post that some followers claimed the opening ceremonies were not mocking Da Vinci’s famous “Last Supper” painting, but said she’s “not buying it” and she doesn’t “see how [Dionysus] relates to unifying the world through competitive sports and [is] acceptable for children to watch.”
The Paris Olympics admitted on Saturday the blasphemous scene was inspired by da Vinci’s famous mural, then tried to walk it back on Monday, the <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/07/30/sports/paris-olympics-admitted-opening-ceremony-drag-show-was-based-on-last-supper/">New York Post</a> reported.
Following the backlash against the Olympics, Anne Descamps, a spokesperson for the Paris Olympics, said at a press conference, “If people have taken any offense we are really sorry.”
“Clearly there was never an intention to show disrespect to any religious group. (The opening ceremony) tried to celebrate community tolerance,” Descamps told reporters, <a href="https://www.reuters.com/sports/olympics/paris-2024-apologises-any-offence-caused-by-last-supper-sketch-2024-07-28/">via Reuters</a>. “We believe this ambition was achieved.”

Actor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/bob-saget">Bob Saget</a>’s widow made her first public appearance with her new boyfriend two years after her husband’s death.
<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/celebrities">Kelly Rizzo</a>, 44, attended the 2024 <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/grammys">Grammy Awards</a> with actor Breckin Meyer, 49, per <a href="https://www.eonline.com/news/1394493/kelly-rizzo-dating-breckin-meyer-2-years-after-husband-bob-sagets-death">E! News</a>. She spoke with the outlet about how she believes Saget would have approved of her moving on.
&#8220;It took a while to get to the point where I&#8217;m like, ‘OK, I think [Bob would] be happy with it,'&#8221; Rizzo told the outlet. 
She previously <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/bob-sagets-daughters-gave-widow-kelly-rizzo-blessing-date-again-couldnt-ask-greater-gift">spoke</a> to Fox News Digital about how Saget’s kids reacted to the idea of her dating again. 
&#8220;It’s meant everything,&#8221; Rizzo said during an interview in December. &#8220;Even though it’s something that you don’t think you need permission for, it meant everything to me to have their blessing and just knowing that they want me to be happy and that they love me.&#8221;
She continued, &#8220;And the two of them saying that Bob would want me to be happy meant everything because they’re his kids. They knew him best.&#8221;
&#8220;I’d love to think that Bob would want me to be happy, too, but to hear it from them is just a totally different level,&#8221; Rizzo said. &#8220;And it meant the world just to hear, ‘Hey, we trust you. We love you. We know you’re going to do what’s right, and we want you to be happy.&#8217; To continually have their support – I couldn’t ask for a greater gift.&#8221;
Rizzo was married to Saget from 2018 until he died in 2022. Saget had three daughters with his first wife, Sherri Kramer, to whom he was married from 1982 until 1997.
Saget died in a hotel room in January 2022 at the age of 65 from blunt head trauma believed to be caused by a fall.

Rizzo launched the podcast “Comfort Food with Kelly Rizzo” as a means of processing her feelings about losing her husband.
&#8220;I had never lost anybody before,&#8221; she told Fox News. &#8220;So I was new to this world&#8230; And having conversations about grief can still be a little taboo. Nobody really wants to talk about it because it’s not the most fun topic. But I thought, ‘How can I make this more comforting and palatable, no pun intended?’ So, I thought, I’ll discuss grief with my guest’s favorite comfort food.&#8221;
Rizzo said she wanted to keep things from getting too heavy, though.
&#8220;I also wanted to make sure that a lot of my guests would be comedians,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I wanted to bring in a different type of angle to the topic. I wanted to talk about grief in a more lighthearted way… Humor can be healing. It allows us to really talk about the topic, but also learn how to get through it.&#8221;

Bob Saget’s Widow Remembers Him Two Years After His Death In Touching Post

Death

There are certainly examples of former child actors who grew up to become happy, healthy, and well-adjusted adults. Unfortunately, there are also dozens of examples of the opposite happening. 
The pitfalls of stepping into Hollywood under the age of 18 are so bad that many former child stars are speaking publicly against the concept and even forbid their own kids from entering the business.
Most recently, former “Full House” actress Jodie Sweetin said that one of the biggest dangers for young stars is having parents who once wanted to be famous themselves. That’s not what happened to her — Sweetin’s adoptive parents were great, she said — but she also noted how people used to approach her to say the sole reason they had children was to make them famous.
“When you see the kids that grew up in this business that turned out to be fairly normal, well-rounded people, they all have really normal parents, who didn’t want to be in the business themselves,” the 41-year-old celebrity told Today during a November 2023 <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/full-house-star-jodie-sweetin-explains-what-normal-child-actors-have-in-common" target="_blank" rel="noopener">interview</a>. 
“They’re like, ‘I tried to be famous, but it didn’t work out, so now it’s your turn,’” Sweetin added, saying people have told her, “I had a kid because I wanted them to be famous.”
The actress became a household name thanks to the popular 90s comedy “Full House,” making her debut on the show when she was just 5- years- old. While fame-hungry parents weren’t her downfall, Sweetin did struggle in adulthood with drug and alcohol addiction. She said the show ending was partially to blame.

“It was a huge shift in my life,” the actress said. “Everything I had known from the time I was 5 years old suddenly ended and it was like saying goodbye to a family I had loved very, very much,” Sweetin said in 2016. “At such a young age it really was a huge loss for me, I didn’t know how to grieve. Drugs and alcohol just sort of numbed everything.”
Another celebrity who warned the world about the dangers of childhood stardom is Academy Award winning actress Natalie Portman. The 42-year-old mother of two <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/natalie-portman-says-children-shouldnt-be-actors-kids-should-play-and-go-to-school">said</a> children should be allowed to experience traditional childhood far from the bright lights of Hollywood.
“I would not encourage young people to go into this. I don’t mean ever; I mean as children,” Portman told Variety during a recent interview.
“I feel it was almost an accident of luck that I was not harmed, also combined with very overprotective, wonderful parents,” the “Black Swan” actress continued. “You don’t like it when you’re a kid, and you’re grateful for it when you’re an adult. I’ve heard too many bad stories to think that any children should be part of it.”

(Photo by Udo Salters/Patrick McMullan via Getty Images)" width="864" height="576" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2023/12/GettyImages-1817812609-864x576.jpg 864w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2023/12/GettyImages-1817812609-300x200.jpg 300w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2023/12/GettyImages-1817812609-768x512.jpg 768w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2023/12/GettyImages-1817812609.jpg 1024w" sizes=" (max-width: 864px) 100vw, 864px" />Udo Salters/Patrick McMullan via Getty Images</div>
“Ultimately, I don’t believe that kids should work,” Portman added. “I think kids should play and go to school.”
The actress launched her acting career at the age of 12 starring in the action film “Léon: The Professional” (1994). Portman catapulted to fame for her portrayal of Padmé Amidala in “Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace” (1999).
Former child star Christina Ricci <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/former-child-star-christina-ricci-its-abuse-make-paul-bois" target="_blank" rel="noopener">agreed</a> with Sweetin’s assessment, going as far as saying parents who force their children to become famous are committing “child abuse.” 
“I feel it’s child abuse to make your child famous,” the 43-year-old mother of two said in 2019. “Once [my son’s] an adult, and he studies, and he understands that it’s an art form, then he can pursue an acting career if he’d like.”
“Being famous is not good for children, it’s just not,” Ricci added “We have a million examples of why it’s not good for children. I’m just not going to risk it. Why would you put the most precious thing in your life up for that?”

However, her assertions stand in contrast to statements she made previously about enjoying her life as a child star. Ricci began her acting career at the age of nine in “Mermaids” (1990). She became a household name for her breakout role as Wednesday Addams in “The Addams Family” (1991) and the sequel, “Addams Family Values” (1993).
During a July 2019 interview with People, Ricci said she has no regrets about being a child star. 
“I’ve had some incredible experiences and loved working as a child. I have to say ‘The Addams Family’ movies were two really – they were like glory days for me as a 10 and 12-year-old. Those were great movies to be on,” she said at the time. 
There are many examples of child stars who had drama in their lives. Former child star Amanda Bynes was placed on a psychiatric hold in March 2023 after the actress was found roaming the streets of Los Angeles naked, as The Daily Wire previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/former-child-star-amanda-bynes-released-from-mental-health-facility-after-reported-naked-incident-in-l-a" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>. This was the latest in a long string of disturbing incidents over the years, including Bynes being placed under a conservatorship for years.
Speaking of conservatorships, former child star turned pop artist Britney Spears has been making headlines for most of her adult life after launching her career in “The Mickey Mouse Club” at the age of 11. In time, Spears became one of the most celebrated pop culture figures in the world, but this fame had a dark side. Between 2007 and 2008, the pop star shaved her head, assaulted a photographer with an umbrella, lost custody of her two children, and was placed under a conservatorship which lasted 13 years.
There are almost too many examples of child stars gone wrong to mention. Macaulay Culkin, who became famous as a young kid starring in “Home Alone,” took his parents to court to block them from controlling his trust fund.

Former child star and the daughter of famous parents Drew Barrymore has been open about being exposed to drugs and alcohol at a very young age because of her career. The actress became famous thanks to her role in Steven Spielberg’s “E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial” in 1982 when she was five.
Barrymore is a good example of a former child star who turned her life around after being in some bad situations. But not all young actors are able to escape a terrible fate. Gary Coleman, the kid star of the “Diff&#8217;rent Strokes” (1978-1986) died at the age of 42 following a history of substance abuse and depression.
There will always be a need for child actors, but by the same token, there is a need to protect them from the worst elements of Hollywood. Those who have been there themselves have sounded the alarm, and it’s up to parents and studio executives to heed their warnings.

Actress <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/celebrities">Jodie Sweetin</a>, best known for playing Stephanie Tanner on the hit comedy “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/full-house">Full House</a>,” said child stars who aren’t damaged by becoming famous all have one thing in common.
“When you see the kids that grew up in this business that turned out to be fairly normal, well-rounded people, they all have really normal parents, who didn’t want to be in the business themselves,” the 41-year-old actress told <a href="https://www.today.com/parents/family/jodie-sweetin-child-stars-one-big-risk-factor-rcna127038">Today</a>.
Sweetin starred in the series when she was just 5 years old after doing some commercial work in her hometown of Los Angeles. She went on to say how parents who were failed actors were too hard on their kids trying to make it in the business.
“They’re like, ‘I tried to be famous, but it didn’t work out, so now it’s your turn,’” Sweetin told the outlet, saying people have told her, “I had a kid because I wanted them to be famous.”
The actress also mentioned how child celebrities now have it “a lot rougher” due to social media, which didn’t exist when she first got famous. 
“I can’t imagine being one of those kids on a big network show that gets all of the attention and all of the criticism. And people are worrying about who you’re dating, and what you look like,” Sweetin said.

“When I was nine, I had teeth coming out of every direction,” she added. “I was very self-conscious of it at the time, and if that had been the thing that was getting made fun of online? That would have destroyed me.”
The “Full House” alum’s biological parents were both incarcerated at the time of her birth, which led to her being adopted by her aunt and uncle, Sam and Janice Sweetin, when she was 9 months old. Sweetin said her adoptive parents never pushed her to become famous and she survived being a child star rather well. But when “Full House” went off the air, the actress did struggle with addiction. 
&#8220;It was a huge shift in my life. Everything I had known from the time I was 5 years old suddenly ended and it was like saying goodbye to a family I had loved very, very much,” Sweetin said in 2016. “At such a young age it really was a huge loss for me, I didn’t know how to grieve. Drugs and alcohol just sort of numbed everything.”
The celebrity has been sober since 2011. She’s now a mother of two and is a certified drug and alcohol counselor.

The 59-year-old actress&#8217; &#8220;A Christmas Blessing&#8221; aired over the weekend and seemed to get a warm reception from GAF fans, many of whom took to social media to praise the movie and gush about the star&#8217;s role in the film on the faith-based network.

Earlier this year, GAF announced the former &#8220;Fuller House&#8221; actress would be back on the small screen in an original Christmas movie — just three years after she pled guilty for her part in the Varsity Blues college admission scandal along with her husband Mossimo Giannulli.
In May of 2020, Loughlin and Giannulli pled guilty to a variety of conspiracy charges after paying $500,000 to get their two daughters, Isabella Rose and Olivia Jade, into the University of Southern California as phony rowing recruits.

Loughlin was released in December 2020, but Giannulli remained behind bars. Giannulli was then released early on April 2, 2021, and served the remainder of his sentence at home.
In January, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/actress-lori-loughlin-mounts-comeback-with-rom-com-movie-premiere-following-prison-time" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Loughlin</a> appeared in her first TV movie role after serving time behind bars in the GAF original film &#8220;Fall Into Winter.&#8221;

In his new memoir &#8220;<a href="https://www.amazon.com/If-You-Would-Have-Told/dp/1250890977" target="_blank" rel="noopener">If You Would&#8217;ve Told Me</a>,&#8221; <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/john-stamos-recalls-moment-he-realized-he-had-to-sober-up-and-kick-alcohol-addiction" target="_blank" rel="noopener">John Stamos</a> revealed a series of bizarre text messages and conversations he had with actress <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/full-house-star-lori-loughlin-lands-another-movie-role-following-prison-time" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lori Loughlin</a> when the college admission scandal broke in 2019.
In the 60-year-old actor&#8217;s new book — out on Tuesday — the &#8220;Full House&#8221; star detailed the strange chats he had with his former co-star right before she was named in the &#8220;Varsity Blues&#8221; college admission scandal along with her husband Mossimo Giannulli, the <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/10/24/entertainment/john-stamos-lori-loughlin-text-exchange-on-college-scandal/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Post</a> reported. In May of 2020, Loughlin and her husband plead guilty to a variety of conspiracy charges after paying $500,000 to get their two daughters, Isabella Rose and Olivia Jade, into the University of Southern California as phony rowing recruits.
&#8220;In March 2019, I get a strange text around 5:30 am from my good friend Roger Lodge,&#8221; Stamos wrote. &#8220;He asks if Lori is okay. I hit him back, &#8216;Why, what&#8217;s up?&#8217; &#8221;
&#8220;Something about a college scandal,&#8221; he wrote back.
&#8220;I started Googling, but there was very little I could find,&#8221; he added. &#8220;I knew she was working in Canada, so I called to check on her.&#8221;
He said Loughlin answered the phone pretty nonchalantly and he recalled her being unfazed about the phone possibly being bugged.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
John Stamos called Lori Loughlin and told her to turn on the news when the college admissions scandal broke: “She asks, ‘What channel?’ I text back in all caps: ’EVERY CHANNEL!’”
She did warn him, “Oh, they may be bugging my phone.” <a href="https://t.co/6XLwMNQOh5">https://t.co/6XLwMNQOh5</a> <a href="https://t.co/GYWNBnbhzp">pic.twitter.com/GYWNBnbhzp</a>

Stamos recalled asking Loughlin about a series of clicks he heard while they were talking on the phone, and her response was shockingly low-key: &#8220;&#8216;Oh that, yeah, I&#8217;m not sure.&#8217; She answers so casually as if I just asked her if [fictional twins on &#8216;Full House]&#8217; Nicky and Alex finished all their vegetables.&#8221;
&#8220;&#8216;I have seen some emails lately from lawyers to Moss, but I stay out of it.&#8217; Before I can process her response, I notice an odd clicking sound on the phone line,&#8221; he added. &#8220;When I asked her about it, she again adopts her laissez-faire tone, &#8216;Oh, they may be bugging my phone.'&#8221;
After they got off the phone, the &#8220;Fuller House&#8221; star saw that the college admission scandal was making headlines and immediately texted her back. In the book, he then shared how that text thread went.
&#8220;I immediately text Lori, &#8216;Are you watching the news?'&#8221; the actor wrote. &#8220;An FBI agent is announcing the largest college admissions scandal ever handled by the Department of Justice, involving bribes to prestigious colleges for falsified student acceptances. She asks, &#8216;What channel?&#8217; I text back in all caps: &#8216;EVERY CHANNEL!'&#8221;
After the actress plead guilty, the &#8220;Every Christmas Has A Story&#8221; star <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/actress-lori-loughlin-mounts-comeback-with-rom-com-movie-premiere-following-prison-time" target="_blank" rel="noopener">served</a> two months in prison, while her husband got five-months behind bars.

John Stamos Reveals Bizarre Text Exchange With Lori Loughlin When College Admission Scandal Broke

John Stamos

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/john-stamos-full-house-cast-post-statement-on-bob-sagets-death" target="_blank" rel="noopener">John Stamos</a> recalled the moment he realized he had to &#8220;sober up&#8221; and kick his alcohol addiction once and for all, something he said he had been battling for a long time.
In the 60-year-old actor&#8217;s upcoming memoir &#8220;If You Would Have Told Me,&#8221; the &#8220;Full House&#8221; star said he had a lot of highs and lows on his path to sobriety, but the turning point was a driving under the influence (DUI) incident in 2015, <a href="https://people.com/john-stamos-recalls-moment-had-to-straighten-up-amid-alcohol-addiction-exclusive-8362740?utm_campaign=people&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_source=instagram&amp;utm_content=likeshop" target="_blank" rel="noopener">People magazine</a> reported.
&#8220;I had to sober up. I was just drinking too much,&#8221; Stamos said. &#8220;I just went low. I didn&#8217;t go high. I just surrounded myself with people I shouldn&#8217;t have been with.&#8221;

&#8220;I had that DUI and I was like, &#8216;I can&#8217;t do this. I&#8217;ve got to straighten up,'&#8221; he added. &#8220;That&#8217;s when I was confusing the universe because I&#8217;m not a bad person, but I was doing crappy things.&#8221;
Not long after the DUI, Stamos admitted <a href="https://people.com/celebrity/john-stamos-enters-rehab-for-substance-abuse-people-exclusive/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">himself to rehab</a>, which he said &#8220;was dark for a little bit.&#8221; But, he added,&#8221;it started to get better&#8221; and he ended up making a &#8220;lot of really good friends.&#8221;

&#8220;I had a lot waiting for me, and I feel bad because a lot of people don&#8217;t, because they burned their lives down,&#8221; the &#8220;Fuller House&#8221; star said. &#8220;Luckily, I had my sisters, but I also had &#8216;Fuller House.&#8217; I got home and I think like a week later, we started &#8216;Fuller House.'&#8221;
The Netflix reboot of the popular sitcom &#8220;Full House,&#8221; which ran from 1987-1995, began filming, and in 2016 it was available on the streaming site. Stamos was joined by other originals from the series like <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/youre-going-to-be-a-disciple-for-me-candace-cameron-bure-thanks-god-for-taking-her-out-of-acting-for-10-years" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Candace Cameron Bure</a>, Bob Saget, and Jodie Sweetin. It was a hit and ran for the next four years.
Stamos credits his wife of five years, Caitlin McHugh Stamos, and their 5-year-old son for helping him stay sober.
&#8220;They have kept me on this path because going down the road of being sober and taking care of yourself, everybody tries,&#8221; the actor said. &#8220;Everybody does it. You could get going for a little while. Then, it&#8217;s like, &#8216;I can drink again.&#8217; So it&#8217;s staying on the path is what they mostly do for me.&#8221;
&#8220;If You Would Have Told Me&#8221; is due out Tuesday, October 24.

John Stamos Recalls Moment He Realized He ‘Had To Sober Up’ And Kick Alcohol Addiction

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/john-stamos-full-house-cast-post-statement-on-bob-sagets-death" target="_blank" rel="noopener">John Stamos</a> admitted he was &#8220;angry&#8221; when he first learned that &#8220;Full House&#8221; stars Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen weren&#8217;t coming back for the Netflix reboot series, &#8220;Fuller House,&#8221; in 2016.
During the 59-year-old actor&#8217;s recent appearance on Kevin McHale and Jenna Ushkowitz&#8217;s &#8220;And That&#8217;s What You REALLY Missed&#8221; podcast, Stamos — who played Jesse Katsopolis on the show — talked about how he had reconnected with the Olsen twins after co-star <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/bob-sagets-widow-speaks-out-about-latest-info-regarding-her-husbands-death" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bob Saget&#8217;</a>s death in January 2022, <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/john-stamos-admits-initially-angry-154421941.html">Yahoo.com</a> reported.
&#8220;When the twins moved to New York… we didn&#8217;t really see them much,&#8221; Stamos said. &#8220;I mean, we stayed in touch a little bit, but Bob [Saget] really did. You hear rumors — &#8216;Oh, they hated their childhood,&#8217; or &#8216;they hated being on the show&#8217; or whatever. When I did &#8216;Fuller House,&#8217; they didn&#8217;t want to come back and I was angry for a minute and that got out.&#8221;
&#8220;But they said, &#8216;We loved our childhood. We loved being with you. We miss Bob,'&#8221; he added of reuniting with them.

Stamos even revealed that the twins, who shared the role of Michelle Tanner on the popular ABC show, visited his home and &#8220;brought a pork chop and sage. I don&#8217;t know why, but thank you? It was a frozen pork chop, so that was really nice. So we stayed very close.&#8221;
&#8220;Full House&#8221; ran from 1987-1995 with the Olsen twins playing Michelle for the entirety of its eight-season run alongside Stamos, actress <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/youre-going-to-be-a-disciple-for-me-candace-cameron-bure-thanks-god-for-taking-her-out-of-acting-for-10-years" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Candace Cameron Bure</a>, and Saget, who played Danny Tanner. &#8220;Fuller House&#8221; ran from 2016-2020.

&#8220;So, we&#8217;re carrying the baby downstairs and we take her in the kitchen and we hose her down. And she was screaming. Both of them,&#8221; Stamos said. &#8220;They wanted to be anywhere else but there, and so did I.&#8221;

&#8220;They were 11 months old, and God bless them. They kept switching: &#8216;This one&#8217;s not gonna cry,'&#8221; he added. &#8220;I couldn&#8217;t deal with it. And I said, &#8216;This is not gonna work.&#8217; And so they got rid of them. They bring on these two redheaded kids… I&#8217;m sure their parents loved them and thought they were attractive…&#8221;
&#8220;It was only a few days, and I said, &#8216;Bring the Olsens back! These kids are terrible,'&#8221; Stamos continued.
Saget died on January 9, 2022, from head trauma. He was found dead in his hotel room in Orlando, and his death was ruled an accident.

FULL HOUSE

John Stamos Reveals How He Felt When He Learned Olsen Twins Weren’t Coming Back For ‘Full House’ Reboot

Actor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/john-stamos">John Stamos</a> said he was responsible for getting the Olsen twins fired from the ABC sitcom “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/full-house">Full House</a>” because he “couldn’t deal” with their crying.
Stamos, who played Jesse Katsopolis on the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/television">show</a>, made the revelation during Monday’s episode of the &#8220;Good Guys&#8221; <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/our-dad-john-stamos-is-here/id1640156422?i=1000610365594">podcast</a>. The actor recalled doing a scene with Dave Coulier (Joey Gladstone) in the very first episode of the series and having a hard time working with the fussy toddler twins.
&#8220;We&#8217;re doing the scene. Joey and I were changing the baby, right? And Danny&#8217;s gone and said, &#8216;Take care of the kids.&#8217; &#8216;Yeah, we got it. We got it,'&#8221; Stamos said.
Jesse and Joey were trying to change Michelle&#8217;s diaper in the kitchen, but Mary-Kate and Ashley kept crying and ruining the scene, the actor said.
Stamos said, &#8220;So, we&#8217;re carrying the baby downstairs and we take her in the kitchen and we hose her down. And she was screaming. Both of them. They wanted to be anywhere else but there, and so did I.&#8221;
The “Full House” alum said that producers kept switching the babies and claiming they weren’t going to cry. 
&#8220;They were 11 months old, and God bless them. They kept switching: &#8216;This one&#8217;s not gonna cry.&#8217; I couldn&#8217;t deal with it. And I said, &#8216;This is not gonna work.&#8217; And so they got rid of them. They bring on these two redheaded kids&#8230; I&#8217;m sure their parents loved them and thought they were attractive…&#8221; he said.
&#8220;It was only a few days, and I said, &#8216;Bring the Olsens back! These kids are terrible,'&#8221; Stamos said.

Mary-Kate and Ashley starred as Michelle Tanner in the popular ABC show for the entirety if its eight-season run. The pair went on to become famous child stars, with multiple made-for-TV and direct-to-video films. They are now owners of multiple fashion brands.
Stamos previously spoke to <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/25/arts/television/john-stamos-bob-saget.html?searchResultPosition=1">The New York Times</a> about getting into arguments on the &#8220;Full House&#8221; set with co-star Bob Saget, who played Danny Tanner. Saget died in 2022. 
The actor said he and Saget often “clashed” with their methods. “He was a comic. If there was even one person on the set, he had to make them laugh,” Stamos said. He said the pair eventually learned to compromise.
“I think we met in the middle,” Stamos said. “But we both went in kicking and screaming, not wanting to bend what we do.”
