In less than four weeks, Candace Cameron Bure went from dreaming about being a grandmother to getting two grandbabies at once - and she is not hiding how she feels about it.

The news, in order: On May 7, 2026, the 50-year-old Full House star announced that her daughter Natasha Bure Perry, 27, is expecting her first child with husband Bradley Steven Perry. Candace shared a photo of the couple holding mugs labeled "mama" and "dada" alongside the caption that introduced her now-official grandmother name: "I'm gonna be a Candy Gram!" 

Then it doubled: Three weeks later, on May 28, Candace announced that her son Lev Bure and his wife Elliott are also expecting. She captioned the post: "Are you KIDDING?!! Another grandbaby on the way!!!!! Does life get any better?!!! CandyGram x2 = fully ignited." Elliott also posted the news on her own Instagram with sonogram photos, writing: "baby bure coming soon!!!!!!"

The reaction video everyone is watching: Natasha posted an Instagram reel on May 26 capturing the moment she told her parents she was pregnant. The video shows Candace walking into a room, noticing a baby onesie and accessories on a chair, and screaming "Wait, what? Are you kidding?" Candace then said: "I need to cancel everything. I don't want to work a day in my life anymore. I'm freaking getting a grandbaby."

Who the Bure family is: Candace has been married to former NHL hockey player Valeri Bure since 1996. Together they have three children - Natasha, Lev, and youngest son Maksim, 24. Lev, who holds a degree in biblical and theological studies from Liberty University, has also been preaching at church - a detail that makes his role as an expectant father carry even more meaning for his family. Natasha married Good Luck Charlie actor Bradley Steven Perry at Calamigos Ranch in Malibu in September 2025.

Why this matters to fans: Candace has been publicly open about her faith for decades - from her years on Full House to her outspoken work on Great American Family, where she has championed faith-based storytelling. When Lev and Elliott married in 2024, Candace wrote on Instagram: "I'm grateful for our generational blessing of long-lasting Christ-centered marriages; to have a legacy of great-grandparents and grandparents who have shown us the way. And now, being the example for our children and their children to come." That prayer, it seems, is already being answered - twice.
