Danica McKellar Speaks Out On Co-Star Neal Bledsoe’s Exit Following Candace Cameron Bure’s Controversial Marriage Comments: ‘I Don’t Agree’ 

Danica McKellar is weighing in on actor Neal Bledsoe’s exit from the Great American Family network following Candace Cameron Bure’s remarks on same-sex couples.

“Neal is a wonderful person. He’s such a great actor,” McKellar, 47, told Fox News Digital of her “Christmas at the Drive-In” co-star. “I have enjoyed working with him so much. He and I both share our love and support of the LGBT community for sure.”

That’s kind of His thing…”
