Jodie Sweetin wouldn't "hug" Candace Cameron Bure if she saw her but she doesn't "hate" her

Speaking on 'The Vault' podcast, Jodie said: "She posted her viewpoint and I posted mine. We've always been very different on those things.

"Candace and I - we just live very different lifestyles. We just exist in sort of very different worlds, but she is still someone I have known since I was five years old.

"It's like family members, where you're like, maybe we don't talk all the time - and I know if politics come up, it is not going to go well - but I don't hate you. I am not going to not hug you, but I am also not gonna keep my mouth shut."

Last year, Candace, 49, branded the Paris Olympics opening ceremony "disgusting" because she felt it "completely blasphemed...the Christian faith with their interpretation of the Last Supper" and Jodie later reposted a video to her own Instagram Story which explained the scene was an interpretation of the Greek god Dionysus.

However, she has insisted she wasn't taking a deliberate swipe at her former co-star.

She said: "To be honest, I wasn't even speaking about her.

"There was already some thing that had happened where we went [on] very divergent paths on something we said - and then I saw the Olympics thing and I saw all these people freaking out about it, and I was like, 'Oh my God, tell me you know nothing about art history without telling me you know nothing,' and then everyone was like, 'She came for Candace!' And I was like, 'What the?' "

While Candace unfollowed Jodie on Instagram three years ago, she insisted she won't be doing the same.

She said: "I'm not gonna unfollow anybody. I don't live my life based on social media. I think it can be used for some great things, and I also think it can be really negative and full of a lot of s***, particularly these days."
