Candace shot to stardom after landing the role of D.J. Tanner in the hit series Full House back in the 80s, only to reprise the role on the Netflix reboot, Fuller House.
The series has already finished filming it’s upcoming fifth and final season.
But Candace has not yet wrapped her mind around the fact the show will soon be officially over.
‘I don’t think the reality has hit yet,’ Candace told the magazine. ‘And I don’t think it will until probably the summertime that we’re not coming back. I’m definitely more at ease now than I was when we finished filming. But it was rough at the end,.’

The role remains a source of pride and joy for Candace.
‘If I am forever known as D.J. Tanner and everyone’s big sister, I will be thrilled and happy,’ she explained. ‘Full House and Fuller House have brought so much joy, comfort, and love to so many people. There’s nothing more I want to be associated with than wonderful and positive things. I embrace the show as an adult just as I embraced it back when I was 10 years old.’
