Candace Cameron Bure recently faced backlash after sharing a lighthearted photo with her husband, Valeri Bure, on social media. The couple, who have been married for nearly 20 years, often share glimpses of their relationship. In the image, Valeri was seen holding Candace in a playful way, which some of her followers deemed inappropriate for someone who presents herself as a “Christian star.”

Despite the criticism, Bure stood by her post, saying she wasn’t sorry for enjoying her marriage and expressed pride in their relationship. She emphasized that after 24 years together, they continue to have fun and maintain a “happy and healthy marriage.”

Bure responded directly to her detractors, making it clear she was unapologetic for showing affection toward her husband, adding that their love and connection are a personal matter.
