Candace Cameron Bure has faced backlash over a recent Instagram photo with her husband, Valeri Bure, showing their playful side. This comes after earlier comments on “traditional marriage” that some fans found offensive.
The couple, married since June 22, 1996, have been together for nearly 20 years. Despite their long relationship, they maintain their connection and humor. However, the photo sparked criticism from viewers who deemed it inappropriate for a “Christian star” of her stature.
In response to the backlash, Bure addressed her critics with a video on Instagram, stating, “Sorry if it offended you… I’m actually not sorry.” She explained, “I’m glad that we have fun together after so many years,” and emphasized, “It makes me laugh because it’s my husband. He can touch me any time he wants and I hope he does.”
Bure’s defense underscores her belief in celebrating a “good and healthy marriage” after 24 years together.
