Best known as adorable older daughter DJ on “Full House,” Candace Cameron Bure focused most of her time on her marriage and raising a family after the hit TV show ended in 1995. Now the Christian actress has landed a starring role in a new ABC Family show, “Make It or Break It,” about a group of young gymnasts who struggle to make it to the Olympics. Cameron Bure plays Summer, the stepmother to one of the athletes.
During a video interview I did with Cameron Bure in 2008 while she was promoting her movie “The Wager,” she said she would only do family-friendly TV and films because she wanted her children to be able to see her work. Now it seems she’s landed the perfect gig. Best of luck Candace!
The ABC Family series will air on June 22.
