Coulier recalled how he told his former Full House cast members the news, adding, “I didn’t want them to hear it from anyone else, so I sent a text message.” It was just this outpouring of, ‘I’ll be there. Just name the time, and I know you’re in good hands with (wife Melissa Bring), but what can we do?’ It’s really overwhelming how much love we have for each other. We’ve been there for each other for so many years, and it’s pretty remarkable.
