Valeri Bure's wife Candace reveals couple's 2-week rule that makes 'huge difference' in their 28-year-long marriage

NHL legend Valeri Bure has been married to his wife Candace Cameron Bure for over 28 years now. On Wednesday, Candace did a Q&A session on her Instagram where she answered some questions about her personal life and work.

During the segment, Candace Bure responded to a question about how she and her husband stay connected when she’s traveling for work. Candace explained that they follow a two-week rule to make sure they don’t go too long without seeing each other:

“We have a 2-week rule. We won’t go longer than that without seeing each other. He always comes to visit me when I’m away filming a movie. We make great efforts to prioritize each other and it makes a huge difference in our marriage."

When asked how often she travels for work, Candace said she is away from home quite a bit:

“Often. I probably average a total of 4-5 months away from home each year."
