Power plays Candace Cameron Bure, Erin AndrewsCelebrities are falling in love with professional hockey players more often than ever before.
The Full HouseAlum was introduced to the now-husband Valeri BureCostars play in charity hockey Dave Coulier. They were married in 1996 and the Hallmark actress is still in love.
“He makes me laugh a lot, which is a very good quality,” she gushed to Us WeeklyOnly in 2019. “He’s just such a bold person. We have always had interesting conversations. I love his passion for life and his strength so much. He’s so supportive of me and our children.”
The couple has three children together: daughter Natasha, Maksim, and Lev. Cameron Bure, a retired athlete, has spoken out about their strong relationship and the highs and lows.
“Marriage is a wonderful, beautiful thing but there’s always going to be tough times,” she told UseIn 2018. “There’s no one that has this amazingly perfect marriage. … You just hang in there and stick with it.”
Andrews has had to deal with challenges in her relationship with her husband. Jarret Stoll. “I have no idea what tomorrow will bring,” the sports journalist told Redbookmagazine in September 2015 when she was asked if Stoll and she would spend their entire lives together. “We’re brought up thinking our lives are going to be a Taylor Swift song. You get wiser as you age. You don’t know what is going to bring you happiness.”
He was arrested earlier that year for possession of cocaine and ecstasy. After the incident, he agreed to a plea bargain and agreed to start a hockey program for at risk children as part of his community service.
In 2017, Andrews and her husband tied the knot at Montana’s Yellowstone Club. Several years later, Andrews opened up about her “tough” IVF journey after undergoing the process for the seventh time.
“There are so many other women who maybe put their careers on the back burner because they don’t want to miss out on any opportunities,” Andrews explained to BulletinIn August 2021. “It’s so common that people are starting families late and put so many other aspects of their lives on hold. … You could go through this whole experience and get absolutely nothing out of it. That’s the crazy part. It’s a ton of money, it’s a ton of time, it’s a ton of mental and physical anguish. And more times than not, they’re unsuccessful.”
Andrews shared her wisdom with Stoll, three months later, as they tried to conceive. “This stinks. Like, it sucks, but I’m here for you,” she told Use. “I get it. And I’m struggling just like you too. And you know, you kind of, after a while, start thinking to yourself, ‘What’s wrong with me, that everybody else has had success?’ But not a lot of people do. So that’s why I wanted to be open about it.”
