Candace Cameron Bure became a household name in the late ‘80s for playing DJ Tanner on Full House, the eldest daughter of the Tanner family. DJ was relatable and easy to connect with, which made Bure one of the most recognized young stars on television during the show’s eight-season run.
As DJ matured on the show, fans followed her emotional journey, especially when she began dating Steve, played by Scott Weinger. Their on-screen romance became a big part of the series and a favorite for many viewers. Now, years later, a surprising real-life moment between Bure and Weinger is catching everyone’s attention.

Candace Cameron Bure just shared a set of prom throwback photos, and fans were shocked to see that her actual prom date was Scott Weinger, her on-screen boyfriend from Full House. This wasn’t just a one-time event, though; over the years, their bond had stayed strong. In 1992, Weinger took Bure to the premiere of Disney’s Aladdin, where he voiced the lead character.
They stayed in touch through the years, showing up for each other’s milestones. When Fuller House returned, the two actors were back on set together. Bure even celebrated Weinger’s birthday with a sweet Instagram post in 2017. Their families have also become close, making the friendship feel even more lasting and genuine.
