Dave Coulier first went public with his non-Hodgkin lymphoma diagnosis in November 2024, when he revealed the health struggle during an episode of the “Full House Rewind” podcast.
At the time, the actor revealed that he was told that the lymphoma was aggressive and required immediate treatment.

“My doctors called and they said, ‘We wish we had better news for you. You have non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which is the most aggressive type. It’s called B-cell,'” Cullier recalled on the “Full House Rewind” podcast. “I left there, I had a little head cold that I had cancer, and it was pretty overwhelming.”
In April 2025, Coulier marked a milestone: she is officially cancer-free. The actor confirmed the news to “Good Morning America” through his representative, and expressed gratitude for everyone who supported him during his treatment.
“I want to sincerely thank my family, friends and fans for their continued prayers, love and support during my emotional roller coaster journey through cancer,” Coulier said in part. He also urged others to prioritize early detection through screening and check-ups.

After publicly sharing her cancer update, Culyer reflected on the role her support system has played throughout her battle. He told Parade magazine that his wife, Melissa, was with him throughout the trip.
“We’re a team,” Coulier said. “I think it would have been a completely different journey if she hadn’t been with me.”
His “Full House” family stepped up, too. John Stamos, Lori Loughlin and Candace Cameron Bure kept in touch to check in on her and cheer her on.
“We’re a family,” Coulier shared with ABC. “We get these text strings, and it’s always fun, and it keeps us connected.” She said Stamos FaceTimed her “like every day.”
Bure celebrated the recovery with a heartfelt message on Instagram: “Dave is cancer free!!!! Join me in celebrating this amazing news – let’s shower him with all the love in the world!”
Stamos also posted a video after Collier shared the health news with him privately. “I’m overwhelmed with joy and gratitude,” Stamos tells People. “He fought with all his strength and heart.”
After treatment, Coulier is already looking toward new goals. He shared that he is working on a line of “all natural and sustainable clothing, foods and personal hygiene products” to be launched later this year.
The actor is also using his story to encourage others to be proactive about their health. He also told ABC, “I would continue to encourage others to check with doctors for early screening such as breast exams, colonoscopies and prostate tests.”
