The former “Full House” and “Fuller House” star Candace Cameron Bure is celebrating her 25th wedding anniversary with her ex-professional hockey player Valeri Bure this week. To mark the occasion, she’s speaking out to reveal the “secret” behind their long-lasting union.
While she said that they are “still learning every year,” Cameron Bure had a few specific items on the list to making a marriage last.
“Communication (which is so important but difficult when one partner isn’t willing.),” Cameron Bure, 45, wrote on social media. “Sex. Laughter. Patience. Lots of patience. Love (a verb. which must be put into action, it’s not just a feeling.).”
“No marriage is picture perfect. Not one. And certainly not ours,” she added. “But through thick and thin, ups and downs, God has blessed us tremendously with guidance and perseverance. I believe God is the secret sauce. I have more love for this man today than the day we married each other. And I know he does for me.”

Cameron Bure has long been open about her sex life with her husband.
“Sex is the blessing of marriage and I hate when Christians are like, ‘no, you have to pretend like you’ve never had sex, and we only know that you’ve had sex three times because you’ve had three children,’” the actress explained while appearing on the “Confessions of a Crappy Christian” podcast back in November. “If we are to promise ourselves for one another and preach saving yourself for marriage, then sex needs to be celebrated within marriage.”
Cameron Bure also opened up about her sex life last month.
“I think it’s important. You’ve got to keep it up. The longer you’re married it’s so easy to take each other for granted. You know each other so well that you forget, so you have to keep it spicy,” Cameron Bure, 45, said on Daily Blast Live. “I love that. My husband and I do. That’s one of the reasons we’ll be celebrating 25 years of marriage.”
When asked what advice she would give couples in a sexual slump, Cameron Bure said, “Just do something unexpected. Maybe lay in a way you don’t normally lay. He’ll be like ‘woah.’ You’ll surprise him!”
