The Full House Cast Members That Still Have Close Relationships

"Full House" was certainly a fan-favorite series during its successful run from 1987 to 1995. Fans know that this sitcom simply wouldn't have been what it was without the characters' chemistry, love, and friendship that was ever-present onscreen. Still, there's been plenty of speculation and rumors in the years since the show first began and after its finale about how these cast members really felt about each other when the cameras stopped rolling. 

Many of these rumors came to a head in 2016 when Netflix's reboot series, "Fuller House" arrived on the streaming service. Some cast members were present, while others were not. This sparked plenty of discussion about whether fallings out had occurred among the actors or whether the love and family vibes we saw onscreen were never actually there behind the scenes.

Recently, former "Full House" sisters and Hallmark Channel darlings, Candace Cameron Bure and Jodie Sweetin reunited despite plenty of public tension between the two as of late. This has piqued even more interest in the former onscreen family and how they feel about each other today. While there may be bad blood between some of the ex-castmates, for others, as the "Full House" theme song famously said, they've got "old familiar friends waiting just around the bend" in their former onscreen family members.

Real "Full House" fans know that, while Joey Gladstone may not have been related to the Tanners, he was still part of the family. And, it seems that this is just as true when the cameras aren't rolling. Dave Coulier, who you may know as Joey, is great pals with the ladies whom he got to watch grow up. In a panel at 90s Con in 2023, Coulier talked about how much he loves working with Candace Cameron Bure, Andrea Barber, and Jodie Sweetin. "They're so much fun. I can't tell you how much we laugh. We just laugh and love each other," he explained, per People. "The days fly by, and you don't want them to end because we have so much love for each other and so much fun. You either have that chemistry or you don't. It's pretty amazing."

It's clear that this chemistry was real onscreen and off. Of course, this meant that the entire cast went into mourning after the tragic loss of Bob Saget, who played Danny Tanner, in 2022. According to Coulier, the cast's incredible bond helped them through this tough time. "We pull together as a family during moments like this," Coulier told People. "We've pretty much experienced everything that a real family can experience. Getting picked up, getting canceled, marriages, divorces, births, deaths. I mean, it's pretty much what every family goes through. And we've stuck together through all of it." 

As it turns out, Uncle Jesse and Aunt Becky weren't the only characters on "Full House" whose romance on the show turned into a lifelong friendship IRL. If you loved D.J. Tanner's adorable first love with her high school sweetheart, Steve, then you'll probably be happy to hear that the actors who played them are also super tight when they aren't playing their characters. Scott Weinger played Steve on both "Full House" and "Fuller House," and it seems that he and his onscreen love are friends in real life. 

Back in the day, Bure took Weinger to her real senior prom, and in turn, she was his date to the premiere of the Disney classic, "Aladdin," in which Weinger played the titular role. A few entire decades later, Bure proved just how much this friendship has lasted in a birthday post she created for Weinger in 2017. "Happy birthday to the only man I've (tv) dated longer than my husband," Bure wrote on social media. "@scottweinger, to say how much I love and adore you would be an understatement. You will always be my first sushi date, movie premier date and prom date x3. Here's to 26 years of friendship and laughter and many many more. You are the best human encyclopedia with your Harvard brain I've ever known."
