Celebrities (including a co-star!) react to Candace Cameron Bure's controversial 'traditional marriage' comments
_
Candace Cameron Bure calls herself the Queen of Christmas, but her latest comments aren’t bringing joy to everyone. In a November 2022 interview with the Wall Street Journal, the “Full House” alum spoke about her decision to leave the Hallmark Channel for the Great American Family network — where she’s a chief creative officer as well as an actress — indicating the Christian network has no plans to feature same-sex couples. “I think that Great American Family will keep traditional marriage at the core,” Candace told WSJ. The team at GAF, Candace said, are “Christians that love the Lord and wanted to promote faith programming and good family entertainment.” The comments didn’t sit well with everyone in Tinseltown, including one of her co-stars.

“I love you @candacecbure for continuously choosing Christ before all. The media is an absolutely VILE space for negativity and I applaud you every time for how you handle yourself with the utmost grace. As they continuously twist the narrative to beat down on the Kingdom, you stand firm in faith and never let others dim your light for Him. No matter how out of context or warped the words may get, the enemy will not prevail. Society has gotten completely out of hand with believing every strategically worded headline broadcasted by the media…followed by cancel culture which is nothing but ugly. It is so incredibly sad to watch. I am lucky to get to view you from a lense closer than most, and see how you are truly the real deal. The Lord shines through you time and time again. The battle is HIS,” Candace Cameron Bure’s daughter, Natasha Bure, wrote on Instagram.

This is rude and hurtful to a whole community of people,” tweeted JoJo Siwa, who previously called Candace Cameron Bure the “rudest” celebrity she’s ever met. JoJo added that Candace’s marriage comments are “genuinely embarrassing.”
