Candace Cameron Bure is opening up about the time her marriage to Valeri Bure was saved by their son, Lev .
The 49-year-old Full House star opened up on the latest episode of her podcast about a difficult time in her marriage.
“ Val E went through a really, really rough season in our marriage in 2020, and that’s when the pandemic hit,” she admitted.
“It was going south quickly, and we thought, ‘I don’t know, I don’t think… we’ll get through this.’ But at one point, [our son] Lev preached, like, a 45-minute sermon about marriage to us. I just opened the Bible on the couch and just talked about it.”

“And I’ll never forget, because he said, ‘You know, I know I haven’t been married. And I’m just a kid. And so it’s probably hard to take marriage advice from someone this young who’s never experienced it before. But I don’t have to be married to know what God’s Word says,'” she continued.
Candace and Valeri have been married since 1996, after being first introduced at a charity hockey game by her Full House costar Dave Coulier . They have two other children: Natasha, 26, and Maksim , 23, who were also present for the discussion.
Lev is now 25 years old.
She said her son “was such a calm voice that had so much wisdom behind it” that she and her husband “walked away” from the experience thinking to themselves, “We raised some pretty good kids.”
“It was so in our face, but it was like the pivotal moment—it really changed for us after that conversation. There was so much more, but it’s a whole different scenario when your kids sit down to talk and go, ‘Are you being as mature as you can be?’ I’m so grateful to Lev and Maks and Natasha ,” she concluded. “They supported everything.”
She also revealed that she thinks watching scary movies can be a portal to something “demonic.”
