Dave Coulier Says Late Full House Costar Bob Saget Visits Him in His Dreams: 'He Always Does Something Silly'

• Dave Coulier shared in a new interview with Parade that his late Full House costar Bob Saget now appears in his dreams
• Coulier added that Saget, who died in 2022 at age 65, "always does something silly and foolish and makes me laugh" when he's dreaming of him
• The actor also revealed that he believes Saget "would have called me every day" amid his cancer diagnosis

Dave Coulier is opening up about how Bob Saget still keeps the laughter going.

The Full House alum, 65, told Parade as part of its March cover that his late costar, who died in 2022 at the age of 65, visits him when he's dreaming.

“I miss Bob so much. I truly had a brother [in him]. I met Bob when I was 18 years old,” Coulier told the outlet. “And by the way, yes, he comes to me in my dreams and he always does something silly and foolish and makes me laugh.”

Coulier, whose representative confirmed to PEOPLE that he is now cancer-free following a stage 3 non-Hodgkin Lymphoma diagnosis, also told Parade that Saget "would have called me every day" amid his diagnosis if he were alive.

"‘How are you doing? What's the prognosis, Dave? Tell me what's going on.’ He would have driven me crazy,” Coulier said. “It was a lovable crazy that he had. I think about him often. I'll be having a moment of clarity, and I'll think, ‘Oh, call Bob,’ and then I realize I can’t.”

Coulier's comments come over three years after Saget's death in January 2022, and just days after fellow Full House costar Candace Cameron Bure shared on Instagram on Monday, March 30 that Coulier was "cancer free," as she posted a selfie of herself, Coulier and his wife, Melissa.

"Join me in celebrating this AMAZING news — let’s shower him with all the love in the world! ❤️❤️❤️," Bure captioned the post.

In November 2024, the actor announced his stage 3 non-Hodgkin Lymphoma diagnosis exclusively with PEOPLE, after an upper respiratory infection led to the swelling of his lymph nodes, prompting him to get tested and diagnosed the month prior. "This has been a really fast roller-coaster ride of a journey," he said at the time. “I looked at how those words affected [Melissa] and I thought, you know what, I'm going to be strong throughout this, not just for me, but I'm going to be strong for her.”

Elsewhere during his recent interview with Parade, Coulier — who played Joey Gladstone in the ABC sitcom from 1987 through 1995 — told the outlet that it was difficult to avoid thinking about death following his diagnosis.

“I think everybody's mind goes there,” he said. “It's part of the reality of life. Like, ‘Wow, this is really serious’ and ‘What's the worst that could happen?’ I've seen it so often in my family.”

His wife, Melissa, was also having “what if” conversations when he was struggling with his treatment, Coulier revealed.

“After [the fifth round of] chemo, he was like, ‘I don't know if I could do this again,’” Melissa said of her husband, who completed chemotherapy in February. “He was like, ‘I’m prepared either way. If I die, I die. And if I can stay here, great. I want to.’ Those conversations were obviously so tough.”

Coulier often reflects on his special bond with Saget, as he discussed on the Dec. 20 episode of his rewatch podcast, Full House Rewind, how he and Saget were "lifelong friends" — even before filming the hit series. In another episode last April, Coulier recalled Saget being “the biggest hugger I ever knew."

“He hugged everyone, and if you were going through a tough time, Bob was there for you,” Coulier said, before sharing another anecdote. “When my brother Danny took his own life in 2021, Bob was the first person who called me and left a voicemail.”

Coulier called the message an "audio hug,” playing it to conclude the podcast. “I know it's not a time to call, but I'm right here, 24/7, right now, right here,” Saget said in the voicemail. “I love you Dave, and I'm so sorry Dave. You loved him. I'm so sorry."

"So I'm here. I'm here 24/7, just call me anytime. Doesn't have to be now, it can be a week — whenever. I can just talk to you and listen. I love you so much."
