In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter in July 2023, actor Luke Macfarlane opened up about former co-star Candace Cameron Bure’s exit from Hallmark.
Bure told the Wall Street Journal, "I think that the Great American Family will keep traditional marriage at the core." Essentially, she wants Hallmark content without inclusivity.
Not only is this highly controversial, but it's also in direct contrast to much of what the Hallmark Channel is doing in terms of becoming a diverse and more inclusive network.
In his interview, Macfarlane — an openly gay actor — said, "I think that we all deserve a place in the media, in the film world." It's safe to say that Hallmark agrees.
