Neal Bledsoe walks away from Great American Family after Candace Cameron Bure's 'traditional marriage' comments
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'Great American Family' star Neal Bledsoe announced his exit from the network in a long statement voicing support for the LGBTQIA+ community following Candace Cameron Bure’s controversial comments about “traditional marriage.”
The 41-year-old, who starred in the 2021 holiday movie 'The Winter Palace' and this year's 'Christmas at the Drive-In' for Great American Family network, explained to Variety that his life wouldn’t have been the same without the guidance of the LGBTQ community. “My life wouldn’t be where it is today without the love, support, and guidance of the LGBTQIA+ community,” he told the outlet on Monday, December 05. “From my mentors in college to the myriad of agents and managers, writers and directors, teachers and colleagues, and, of course, my dear friends and family, who have all touched my life, I owe them a great debt.”
