In response to Miss Benny, “one of many Tanner sisters” who’s “very publicly not for the ladies” was not happy with the addition of a queer character in two episodes of season 4. As a result of the star’s emotions in regards to the LGBTQ+ neighborhood have been so extensively recognized by everybody engaged on the manufacturing, the higher-ups sat down with the visitor star to warn her about what to anticipate! The performer, who got here out as transgender in June, revealed:
“I bear in mind I received sat down by the writers and the studio to principally warn me how this individual allegedly was making an attempt to get the character eliminated and never have a queer character on the present.”
WTF!
The actress claimed she was “warned and ready” that this individual’s fan base may additionally be “inspired to focus on” her. Whereas the protests to get the character erased from the comedy didn’t work, it doesn’t imply the main woman was very welcoming to the Glamorous lead, Miss Benny claimed:
“To this present day, regardless of engaged on the present every single day for 2 weeks straight, I’ve solely had a dialog with one of many Tanner sisters.”
Now, clearly, there have been solely two Tanner sisters to talk with on set as a result of the youngest, Michelle, performed by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, was not part of the Netflix sequence. And given what everyone knows about Candace and Jodie Sweetin, it appears apparent the latter was the one pleasant one. Jeez.

As to be anticipated, the Christmas Underneath Wraps lead wasted no time clapping again. Denying all of the claims, she stated in an announcement to Folks on Thursday evening:
“I by no means requested Miss Benny’s character to be faraway from Fuller Home and didn’t ask the writers, producers or studio executives to not have queer characters on the present. Fuller Home has at all times welcomed a variety of characters. I believed Miss Benny did an important job as ‘Casey’ on the present. We didn’t share any scenes collectively, so we didn’t get an opportunity to speak a lot whereas filming on set. I want Miss Benny solely the very best.”
Hmmm…
Her phrase selection on the finish is def inneresting. Saying they didn’t have the chance to “speak a lot” appears to recommend they did work together — but when we’re going off what Miss Benny stated then that’s a lie!
After all, these allegations come after Candace was already dubbed the “rudest movie star” JoJo Siwa‘s ever met. Final 12 months, the Aurora Teagarden Mysteries star additionally made waves when she promoted her new partnership with the Hallmark rival Nice American Household, saying:

The 47-year-old’s obvious bigotry was criticized by many stars, together with the Dance Mothers alum who was shocked she so brazenly gushed about her “intention of excluding LGBTQIA+” individuals in her new initiatives. Jodie was noticed supporting the previous Nickelodeon star, who identifies as queer and pansexual, writing, “ I like you.” Jodie additionally unfollowed Candace on the time. So, contemplating all of this, we’re unhappy (however not shocked) to listen to these newest claims. What do you make of them, Perezcious readers?! Whose facet of the story do you imagine?! Sound OFF (beneath)!
