Candace Cameron Bure Refuses to Back Down Following Backlash Over ‘Inappropriate’ Photos With Husband
Candace Cameron Bure has recently faced substantial media scrutiny. The actress drew attention with her statements regarding “traditional marriage,” which sparked disapproval among some of her fans.
This time, a photo of the actress and her spouse is making a commotion.
Candace Cameron Bure first encountered Valeri Bure, her future husband, at a hockey game in 1994. They started dating that same year and tied the knot on June 22, 1996.
Although they have been married for nearly 20 years, they still prioritize spending time together and work to keep their love vibrant.
Observing the playful aspect of their marriage through a story Bure shared on Instagram was enjoyable. However, her viewers reacted strongly, interpreting her lighthearted demeanor as disrespectful.
Despite the criticism, Bure stood firm. Instead of retreating, she shared the photo on her Facebook page. The two images she posted online highlighted the “sweet and spicy” nature of her relationship with her husband. In the second image, Valeri’s arm is wrapped around her shoulder, and his hand rests on her chest.
Fans warned her that the photo was inappropriate for a ‘Christian celebrity’ of her stature. Nevertheless, the actress addressed her critics. “I’m sorry if that offended you… actually, I’m not sorry,” she chuckled in a follow-up video shared on her Instagram stories. “I’m happy that we can still enjoy ourselves after all these years.”
After 24 years, she asserted that she showcased the outcome of a “good and healthy marriage.”
