Full House

Jodie Sweetin has shared some welcome news about her former Full House co-star Dave Coulier, eight months after he announced that his tongue cancer was in remission. The 67-year-old actor, beloved for portraying Joey Gladstone on the classic sitcom, has faced two cancer diagnoses in recent years, making the latest update particularly meaningful for longtime fans. According to People, Sweetin, 44, opened up about her onscreen uncle's recovery while attending the Scleroderma Research Foundation's Cool Comedy Hot Cuisine fundraiser in Beverly Hills on Tuesday, October 13. Although Coulier couldn't attend the event, his former castmates came together to celebrate their enduring friendship and honor the legacy of their late co-star Bob Saget.

"He's doing great," she said, recalling a recent arts fundraiser they attended in Detroit called The Coney. She also revealed that she and Andrea Barber, who played Kimmy Gibbler on Full House, recently spent a weekend at Coulier's home. Their visit offered an opportunity to reconnect and enjoy ordinary moments together after his challenging cancer treatments.

Coulier first announced his stage 3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma diagnosis in November 2024 and entered remission five months later. However, another health challenge followed in December 2025 when he revealed a tongue cancer diagnosis. Fortunately, the actor announced in February 2026 that he was in remission from the second cancer as well. ‘Full House’ Cast Maintains Close Friendship Decades After the Sitcom Ended FULL HOUSE, clockwise from lower left: Jodie Sweetin, Candace Cameron Bure, Scott Weinger, Bob Saget, Dave Coulier, Andrea Barber, John Stamos, Mary-Kate/Ashley Olsen, Lori Loughlin, 1987-1995. © ABC / /Courtesy Everett Collection Beyond discussing Coulier's recovery, Sweetin reflected on the remarkable bond the cast has maintained since Full House ended in 1995.
