Candace Cameron Bure, a familiar face since her childhood, remains firm in her stance against public scrutiny over her appearance.

In an exclusive conversation with Us Weekly on Tuesday, November 4, the 49-year-old actress shared her thoughts on societal expectations while discussing her new book, Rise and Renew: A 30-Day Devotional to Heal a Hurting Heart, Overcome Emotional Pain, and Grow in Your Faith – Interactive Devotions with Bible … and Creative Exercises (One Step Closer). The book explores themes of graceful aging, spiritual connections, and daily rejuvenation.

Cameron Bure acknowledged the persistent pressures of the entertainment industry, stating, “I do feel great.” She emphasized the significance of personal validation, adding, “If my husband loves me and tells me I look great, then that’s all that matters.”

The former Full House star values her fans’ support but strives to distance herself from negative commentary about her physique. Earlier this year, she encountered criticism over a social media post featuring her in a one-piece swimsuit.

Responding to the backlash, Cameron Bure eventually removed the photo, explaining to her Instagram audience in September that it was part of her effort to “soak up the end of summer” and “have fun.”

Looking back, Cameron Bure told Us it was easier to shut down any negative comments by deleting the image in question.

“People are always going to have an opinion, and sometimes you forget that for a moment because you’re like, ‘Hey, happy moment. Gonna share something,’” Cameron Bure recalled. “And then you’re like, ‘Oh, why did I share it?’”

Full House star Candace Cameron Bure isn’t afraid to push back against online body-shamers. On September 6, 2025, Bure opened up about her decision to post — and then subsequently delete — a photo of herself in a swimsuit. “I was at the beach, [and] I was wearing a one-piece,” Cameron Bure wrote via her […]

The actress explained that in the case of the bathing suit photo, she “felt like it was easier to take it down, because I don’t need to have controversy over it.”

Cameron Bure confessed, “I don’t need for people to pick apart my body. I’m like, ‘That’s fine, you couldn’t have an opinion. I’m just going to take it away so you don’t get to say what you want about that part of my life.’ And that’s fine.”

Despite some internet trolls dissecting her appearance, Cameron Bure said she still feels “like I’m 30” as her 50th birthday draws closer. (Cameron Bure will celebrate the age milestone in April 2026.)

“I think I’m always gonna feel like I’m 30. I think of [my real] number, and I’m like, ‘I’m that old?’” she said with a laugh. “I guess I’m making myself excited about turning 50. I don’t know if I’m really excited about it, but I’m kind of, like, willing myself to be excited.”

Candace Cameron Bure is brushing off the body-shamers and doing it with flair. The Full House alum, 49, glowed in a minimal white crop top and breezy drawstring pants in a mirror selfie shared via her Instagram Stories on Tuesday, September 9, proving she’s not about to let anyone else define her style or dim […]

Cameron Bure isn’t totally sold on turning 50, but she is ready for life’s future challenges.

“I am getting in the best shape of my life,” she told Us. “Because I want to enter this next decade of my life being strong and healthy, because I know I got a lot of stuff coming my way, and I want to be able to handle it as best as I can.”

In addition to her fitness goals, Cameron Bure teased that there is one thing she’d like to leave behind in her 40s.

“I’d like to leave the cystic acne that I still get. I don’t want to take that into my 50s,” she chuckled. “I’m like, ‘Why am I still getting this in my 40s?’ I have a feeling it’s only going to get worse.”

Outside of working on her physical well-being, Cameron Bure has continued to nurture her spiritual self and her relationship with God. Writing her new book, Rise and Renew, was one way that Cameron Bure decided to share her religious beliefs with the world while keeping track of her own journey.

“It’s a 30 day devotional, and it’s [meant for readers] to spend, really five minutes, 10 minutes in the word,” Cameron Bure told Us of the book, which comes out this month. “It’s filled with scripture from the Bible, and I write some personal reflections.”

The Timeless Tidings of Joy actress said that although she might not do a devotional “every day” the practice is “part of my life.”

Candace Cameron Bure has gone through many “seasons” in her life, many of which have tested her and Valeri Bure’s marriage. “There are days I wrestle with brokenness. I have experienced that,” Cameron Bure, 49, exclusively told Us Weekly on Tuesday, November 4, while promoting her new book, Rise and Renew: A 30-Day Devotional to […]

“It’s time in prayer. It’s time for me spent with God that resets my morning,” Cameron Bure continued. “Because I can make all the plans that I want to make, but I really want God to guide my path, and I do that by resetting every morning.”

That practice is what she hopes her readers are able to incorporate into their lives as well.

“Getting up every single morning, renewing our mind with who God says we are, and being reminded of who he is, can just change our day and make a huge difference,” Cameron Bure added. “So it’s all based on taking all of our thoughts captive and really giving them to God and and just going on with our day being reminded of those reflections.”

Rise and Renew: A 30-Day Devotional to Heal a Hurting Heart, Overcome Emotional Pain, and Grow in Your Faith – Interactive Devotions with Bible … and Creative Exercises (One Step Closer) is available for presale now and will be in stores on Tuesday, November 11.
