Candace Cameron Bure Talks Successful Marriage; Reveals She Puts Her Husband on a Pedestal [SEE HERE]

Candace Cameron Bure and Valeri Bure

Candace Cameron Bure resurfaced in a big way last year with her new book and third place finish on 'Dancing With The Stars.' In a recent interview with Yahoo, the actress talked about how she and her husband have successfully managed to keep a happy marriage.

Her book 'Balancing it All' sparked some controversy when she discussed being submissive to her husband, and in her recent interview she addressed comments and why she is sure to esteem her husband.

"I honor my husband and encourage him to the best man and father he can be.," she told Yahoo, "I put him on a pedestal so he can grow. And he does the same for me."

Bure went on to say that men and women are different in how they want to feel love and respect. The former 'Full House' actress is not afraid to talk about her Christian faith and went on to say, "To go back to the Bible, men are told to love their wives and women are told to respect their husbands. When a man feels respected, that is love to him."

Bure and her husband of 19 years, former NHL player Valeri Bure, confessed that her husband does 98 percent of the cooking in their house. So in that area she makes sure to compliment him and tells her kids to do the same.

Bure also discussed what she meant by being submissive to her husband and admitted that in her home they make decisions as a family. "[Last year] I used the word "submissive" [to describe my role in the marriage] because it's from the Bible but people who don't understand that see that as offensive," she said, "My husband is not a dictator. We work together but I don't want to dig my heels in and I have no aspirations to be the ruler of my family."

"We are two equal people but I love my husband and I want him to lead," she maintained.  

The star of the upcoming film series "Aurora Teagarden: A Bone to Pick" said that she wants her husband to lead with the big picture issues. "Such as where we live or what schools the kids attend, if he feels strongly about something and I think our family would benefit from it, I am going to share my thoughts," she explained, "But ultimately, I trust that my husband has our family's best interests at heart, so I wouldn't fight him on that. And when I feel strongly about something, he agrees with me. It goes both ways.
