Nostalgia: Full House Stars Candace Cameron Bure, John Stamos, Lori Loughlin and Jodie Sweetin Reunite 31 Years Later — Photos

The stars who made a crowded television household feel like home have given longtime fans a delicious reason to revisit the family again, with their newest pictures showing changes that bring tears to the eye.

Candace Cameron Bure, John Stamos, Lori Loughlin, and Jodie Sweetin got together for a very special reason at the Scleroderma Research Foundation's "Cool Comedy - Hot Cuisine" fundraiser at Beverly Wilshire, A Four Seasons Hotel, in Beverly Hills, California, on October 13, 2026.

Thirty-one years after "Full House" ended, the familiar names were enough to stir up old affection, but wait until you see how beautifully those childhood memories meet the present.

The Tanner Family Album Just Got a Very Glamorous Addition

D.J. and Stephanie. Uncle Jesse and Aunt Becky. Some television characters never quite stop feeling like people we grew up with.

For viewers who remember the oversized sweaters and spectacularly ambitious hair, seeing these four together comes with a personal little nostalgic pang. A family sitcom can occupy a surprisingly big place in your heart, especially when its younger stars were growing up right alongside you.

Now, their latest group photographs bring Candace, John, Lori, and Jodie into the same frame again, dressed for a Beverly Hills fundraiser. From left to right, the lineup puts the former eldest Tanner daughter beside her television uncle, followed by Aunt Becky and the little sister whose childhood wardrobe practically deserves its own scrapbook.

And goodness, they brought the glamour. Tailoring, satin, and a beautifully embroidered neckline give this addition to the album a decidedly grown-up dress code.

The occasion came more than three decades after the original series finished in 1995, although their shared television history continued through "Fuller House." That makes these pictures especially lovely: the years have room for both the characters fans adored and the lives their performers built afterward.

Naturally, those lives have included quite a few wardrobe changes.

D.J.'s Scrunchie Years Give Way to Sharp Beverly Hills Tailoring

Candace's D.J. had the sort of clothes that can send a former '90s kid straight back to a childhood closet. High-waisted denim, colorful oversized sweaters, and scrunchies were all part of the look, with voluminous bangs completing that gloriously familiar silhouette.

For this outing, Candace chose a houndstooth-and-plaid layered bustier ensemble beneath a matching blazer. Her cropped blonde bob, parted in the center, gave the patterned tailoring a crisp finish. D.J. would have had serious outfit envy.

Candace's acting ambitions began early, following the example of her older brother, Kirk Cameron, who played Mike Seaver on "Growing Pains." Before the Tanner household came calling, she appeared in commercials and made guest appearances on "Punky Brewster," "St. Elsewhere," and "Who's the Boss?"

According to IMDb, she was cast as D.J. in 1986, at age 10, ahead of the show's 1987 debut. During its original run, she also played Sally Field's daughter in the 1988 film "Punchline."

But what about her life and career after D.J.?

After "Full House," Candace married hockey player Valeri Bure at 20, and the couple has three children. Her career has kept moving, too, with Christmas movies and mysteries becoming familiar fixtures in her work.

Recent credits include "Home Sweet Christmas" and "A Christmas Less Traveled" in 2024, followed by "Timeless Tidings of Joy" and "Another Sweet Christmas" in 2025.

Her 2026 credits include "A Second Chance Christmas" and "Ainsley McGregor Mysteries: A Case for the Watchmaker." The scrunchies may belong to the scrapbook, but Candace has hardly finished filling the screen.

Uncle Jesse Still Knows His Way Around a Good Hair Day

Beside Candace, John supplied the evening's classic formalwear in a black suit with satin lapels, a white dress shirt, and a dark tie. His shorter hair was neatly swept back, a polished successor to Uncle Jesse's magnificently feathered volume.

Oh, that hair. For anyone who remembers the leather jackets and rolled sleeves, Uncle Jesse's styling was practically a supporting character. But this evening held something far sweeter than another handsome Uncle Jesse photograph. John was receiving the Bob Saget Legacy Award, with Candace, Lori, and Jodie there to cheer him on.

According to the foundation, the honor recognizes people who use their voices to build awareness and raise money for scleroderma research. The evening raised $1,077,000, and John's acceptance speech paid tribute to his late friend.

Did you know? John's connection to Jesse went deeper than the wardrobe. His biography notes that he asked for the character's surname to become Katsopolis, replacing Cochran, to reflect his Greek heritage.

Before joining "Full House" in 1987, John played Blackie Parrish on "General Hospital" from 1982 to 1984. Music also became a lasting part of his career, including occasional performances on drums with the Beach Boys beginning in 1985.

After the original sitcom ended, he brought his musical and dancing abilities to Broadway as J. Pierrepont Finch in "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying!" in 1995. Jesse's musical streak had a very capable man behind it.

More recently, John played basketball coach Marvyn Korn in "Big Shot" from 2021 to 2022 and appeared in "Doctor Odyssey" and "Unprisoned" in 2024. His 2025 work included "Palm Royale" and "The Hunting Wives."

Younger viewers may recognize his voice, too, through his work as Tony Stark and Iron Man in "Spidey and His Amazing Friends," and as Howard Stark in "Iron Man and His Awesome Friends." A whole new audience has been getting acquainted with a performer their parents may still affectionately think of as their handsome TV uncle.

Aunt Becky's Latest Look Deserves Its Own Place in the Album

Lori brought a gorgeous sweep of navy to the reunion in a floor-length gown with gold embroidery around the neckline. Her long brunette hair fell in loose waves, giving the formal dress a soft finish.

Aunt Becky always understood the appeal of looking beautifully put together. Back then, that meant feathered shoulder-length hair, soft bangs, and polished outfits that suited her broadcast-world character.

The new photographs offer a lovely comparison, especially for viewers who remember Becky becoming such a familiar presence in the Tanner household. Lori played the role on the original series from 1988 to 1995, later returning for "Fuller House."

Her post-sitcom career included playing Ava Gregory in "Summerland" from 2004 to 2005, according to her credits. She also became associated with Abigail Stanton in "When Calls the Heart" and Jennifer Shannon in the "Garage Sale Mysteries" films.

Recent work has taken her from the romantic territory of "Fall Into Winter" and "Blessings of Christmas" in 2023 to an appearance as herself on "Curb Your Enthusiasm" in 2024. In 2025, she played Lieutenant Bishop in "On Call."

Her listed 2026 work includes "Garage Sale Mysteries: Murder Takes the Stage." For fans who first knew her as Becky, there is a generous stretch of television history between those early sitcom outfits and this elegant Beverly Hills gown.

Stephanie's Pigtails Are a Memory, but Jodie's Glamour Is Fully Grown

Then there is Jodie, whose transformation from little Stephanie's bright prints and overalls to evening glamour delivers an especially sweet dose of nostalgia.

For the fundraiser, she wore a draped, shimmering rose-gold satin dress with an elegant updo. Warm makeup and prominent jewelry completed a look that gave the one-time scrunchie enthusiast a thoroughly glamorous evening. Little Stephanie in pigtails feels both like yesterday and a lifetime ago.

Jodie Sweetin returned to Stephanie for "Fuller House," which ran from 2016 to 2020, while building a separate collection of romantic and mystery roles. Her most recent filmography includes "Just Swipe" in 2021 and "A Cozy Christmas Inn" and "A Christmas in Switzerland" in 2022.

She played Jane Da Silva in "The Jane Mysteries: Inheritance Lost" in 2023, followed by three more entries in 2024. That year also brought "The Heiress and the Handyman" and "Love's Second Act."

Her later credits include "Dateless to Dangerous: My Son's Secret Life" in 2025 and the Sorcerer Queen in "Vampirina: Teenage Vampire" in 2026. Away from acting, she married Mescal Wasilewski on July 30, 2022.

Those are substantial chapters in a life many viewers first encountered through a little girl's sitcom adventures. And yet a photograph can bring that early affection rushing back with almost embarrassing ease.

The family album below holds that pleasure beautifully, moving through their earlier years, their time on the show, and the occasions that followed. Then come the newest pictures: four familiar faces together again, giving everyone who grew up loving them one more memory to keep.
