Dave Coulier from Full House discusses the Olsen twins reunion
Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen will always have a hand to hold onto in Dave Coulier.
While the twin sisters—whose acting careers began at just 9 months old in their joint role as Michelle Tanner on Full House—have largely distanced themselves from their acting roots, they did reconnect with their former costars at their TV dad Bob Saget’s funeral in January 2022.
“When we saw them at Bob’s funeral and his memorial, it was just wonderful,” Coulier—who played Joey Gladstone on the long-running sitcom—told The New York Post in an interview published Sept. 13. “That’s the only word I think of. It was wonderful to see Mary-Kate and Ashley.”
In fact, the comedian, 64, got to spend some quality time with the actresses-turned-fashion-moguls, now 38, as the surviving castmates gathered following the memorial. “I have a picture somewhere where John Stamos has the Dumbo from Disneyland in his house, and it’s from the ride,” he recalled. “And so I went and I sat in there and I started playing around, and all of a sudden, Mary-Kate came over and she sat next to me, and then all of a sudden, Ashley sat next to me.”
