Candace Cameron Bure is realistically reflecting on her marriage to husband Valeri Bure five months ahead of their 30th wedding anniversary.
‘[There have been] lots of highs and there’s been some really low lows,’ the 49-year-old former child star confessed on her eponymous podcast Tuesday.
‘And I know that during some of those low times, I wouldn’t even say it’s low. You’re just kind of, like, sitting in the shallow of the valley. Where you’re like, “This isn’t the best, but that’s just life.” We’ll just kind of go through it.’
Cameron continued: ‘You just feel stuck, and yet, for us, we didn’t have either the confidence or just the straight-up courage to be honest enough with each other to say the really hard things because I know they’re gonna hurt your feelings and I know you’re gonna hurt my feelings by hearing it, by saying it.’
The two-time Daytime Emmy nominee went on to say that sometimes you have to reach the pit to get pulled out of it: ‘I know that we can feel stuck. We want to get unstuck.’

Cameron was only 19 when she first met the 51-year-old retired NHL star after being introduced by her Full House castmate Dave Coulier at a Los Angeles charity hockey game.
And the devout Christian couple aren’t just united in love as they co-founded Bure Family Wines in the Napa Valley with their friend Joshua Peeples in 2006, and appointed their 25-year-old son Lev as vice president.
The Bures will celebrate their son Maksim’s 24th birthday next Tuesday, and they’re also proud parents of 27-year-old daughter Natasha.
Cameron had previously confessed to having gone through a ‘really rough season’ with Russian-born Bure just as the COVID-19 pandemic hit in 2020, and they didn’t think they ‘were gonna make it through.’
‘[Our son] Lev preached, like, a 45-minute sermon on marriage to us. Just had his Bible open on the couch and just talked about it,’ the Ainsley McGregor Mysteries producer-star recalled.
‘He looked us straight in the eye and individually asked me and then asked Val, “Have you done everything you can? Is there one step of grace, is there just some bit of more grace you can give? Is there one more act of kindness in you that you could give to try to reconcile?”
‘When we walked away from that and Val and I were like, “Huh, we raised some pretty good kids.”‘

Cameron first found fame as D.J. Tanner in Jeff Franklin’s San Francisco-set sitcom, which aired for eight seasons on ABC spanning 1987-1995.
The Rise and Renew author then reprised her role in the Netflix continuation Fuller House, which aired for four seasons spanning 2016-2020.
Candace certainly had a leg up in showbusiness thanks to being the nepo sister of Growing Pains alum Kirk Cameron.
