A Future Fun Dad
According to Stamos, once he found out Caitlin was pregnant, he immediately decided to propose to her.
"The [pregnancy] happened. Then I said, I better have a ring on her finger because it's the right thing to do, and I wanted to marry her anyway. So I called her parents to ask, and it was like, 'You better!'" Stamos said.
Stamos also stated that he looks forward to being a fun dad because he's had tons of practice.
In addition to reprising his role as Jesse Katsopolis on the Netflix series, Fuller House, Stamos also starred in Glee and Scream Queens.
