As the saying goes, all's well that ends well!

After a TikTok video claiming that Candace Cameron Bure is the "rudest celebrity" Jojo Siwa has ever met went viral, the Fuller House actress didn't waste any time addressing the situation.

The original video—a trend that the Dancing With the Stars alum hopped on, confessing that she didn't expect it to go viral or be a big deal at all—showed her quickly flashing through photos of celebrities who she deemed the "rudest," "nicest," "coolest," and her "crush." When it came time to name the "rudest celebrity" category, Siwa turned her phone to reveal a photo of Candace seemingly on the set of Fuller House. She did not provide any other details at the time concerning their alleged interaction, nor did she elaborate what led to her feelings.

In an explanatory clip posted to Instagram on Tuesday, Bure admitted to being "shocked" upon seeing the YouTuber's TikTok, having "no idea" where such a thing even came from. As a result, she cut to the chase and went straight to the source, attempting to contact Siwa directly.

"I immediately tried to reach out to her through a mutual friend, and my publicist contacted her manager, and I DM'd her because I didn't know what happened – I didn't know!" she began.

The 46-year-old actress continued, revealing that she was eventually able to reach the rising star. "So I was finally able to talk to JoJo this morning. I called her, and we had a great conversation," she said.

She divulged that as the two spoke, Siwa mentioned participating in the "silly TikTok trend" and not thinking of it as a big deal, as Bure replied that it, in fact, was a big deal, conveying genuine concern in wanting to know why she felt the way she did.

Bure recalled meeting at the Kelly Clarkson Show, where everything between them apparently "went great," however was unaware of a previous encounter they had several years ago. Siwa addressed the confusion and the stars were able to hash it out with mutual respect.

"She actually didn't want to tell me because she said it's so silly she felt bad, and that's why it just wasn't a big deal to her," Cameron explained. "But then she said, 'I met you at the Fuller House premiere when I was 11-years-old, and we were all on the red carpet. I had come up to you and said, "Can I have a picture with you?" and you said to me, "Not right now," and then proceeded to do what you were doing and take pictures with other people on the red carpet.'"

The mom-of-three went on to sincerely apologize to the social media star, to which Siwa told her: "You weren't even mean! And I get it now, as an adult, when you're on the red carpet and everything's happening and you're being pulled in different directions, but at that time I was 11."

"I kind of broke your 11-year-old heart, I didn't take a picture with you!" Bure acknowledged, adding, "I feel crummy. JoJo, I'm so sorry!"

Though Siwa reiterated to the sitcom star that their memorable encounter years ago was "seriously not a big deal" anymore, the seasoned actress responded, "Please know that as a mom, it breaks my heart that I made you feel that way and I'm sorry to your mom, too, that I did that to her daughter. I know if anyone crosses my kids, mama bear comes out."

Following the conversation, Bure proceeded to tell her followers that everything is "all good on the JoJo front," sharing the valuable lesson that came out of it all: "No matter how many followers you have, even a 10-second trending TikTok video can do damage because our words matter and our actions matter."

"We are both positive, encouraging people, and I told JoJo how much I've always appreciated her because she has been a good role model because of her positivity throughout her whole life and career," the actress noted.

In closing, she explained how the dialogue wrapped up, putting an end to the situation as a whole. "She said she still loves watching Full House and watches it to fall asleep and it's a comfort show for her so we had all the feels and it was all good, and there's no drama. That's the tea," Bure noted.
