Candace Cameron Bure’s long-awaited moment as a grandmother arrived with a mix of joy, worry, and overwhelming relief. Her son Lev Bure and his wife, Elliott, welcomed their first child on August 4, 2026, but waited weeks before sharing the news publicly. When Elliott finally introduced their newborn on September 27, she revealed that baby Bond Leo Bure had arrived 10 weeks prematurely, weighing just three pounds. His first weeks were spent in a neonatal intensive care unit, where his parents faced an emotional stretch filled with tears, prayers, and uncertainty. After five weeks and five days in the hospital, the family finally brought their little boy home—and shared the news that had everyone celebrating.
Elliott called Bond their “miracle boy” and thanked the medical team who cared for him, along with loved ones who supported the family through the frightening experience. Candace responded with an emotional message, saying their hearts were overflowing with love and praising Lev and Elliott as wonderful parents. The actress, who has three children with her husband, Valeri Bure, had openly looked forward to becoming a grandmother and even suggested the playful nickname “Candy Gram,” though her children reportedly weren’t convinced. Bond’s distinctive name also caught fans’ attention, with many praising the choice and celebrating his safe arrival home. The family’s happiness is growing even further: Candace’s daughter Natasha Bure Perry and her husband, Bradley Steven Perry, also announced that they were expecting their first child in May. After years of raising her own children and adjusting to a quieter household, Candace is now entering a new chapter filled with grandchildren, family milestones, and precious moments she had long hoped to experience.
