Cancel culture seems to come for Candace Cameron Bure as often as it does for Chris Pratt. Most recently, the Christian actress and mother of three had to shut down charges that she tried to have a transgender actor removed from the Netflix sitcom "Fuller House."

The accusations came from Miss Benny, who played Casey, the first openly gay character in the "Full House" franchise. In a video posted to TikTok, the "Glamorous" star alleged that showrunners warned that "one of the Tanner sisters" was not keen on the actor being on the show.

"I remember I got sat down by the writers and the studio to basically warn me how this person allegedly was trying to get the character removed and not have a queer character on the show," Miss Benny said.

Bure, who played D.J. Tanner on "Full House" and the subsequent Netflix spinoff, refuted the claims in a statement to People, saying the accusations are untrue. "I never asked Miss Benny's character to be removed from 'Fuller House' and did not ask the writers, producers, or studio executives to not have queer characters on the show," she said.

"'Fuller House' has always welcomed a wide range of characters," she continued. "I thought Miss Benny did a great job as Casey on the show. We didn't share any scenes together, so we didn't get a chance to talk much while filming on set.
