Kirk Cameron’s former co-stars are definitely not in harmony with the former “Growing Pains” actor.
Cameron recently made headlines for organizing and attending unmasked Christmas carol events in California, to protest the order to stay at the state home to prevent the spread of COVID-19 further.
His sister, Candace Cameron Bure, has already declared that she will not be attending, and now some of her former “Growing Pains” cast members have begun to speak out. Tracey Gold, who played Carol Seaver, Mike de Cameron’s sister on the show, which ran from 1985 to 1992, tweeted on December 15:
“Checking in with my dear brother Mike,” she wrote. “@KirkCameron As your smartest sister, I want you to know that I disapprove. I’m worried about you, brother AND your family. Wear a mask. Stay home. Sing later.”
Jeremy Miller, who played Brother Ben on the show, told Page Six via email in a story published on December 25: “Although I always love my brother Kirk, I couldn’t disagree more than that he performed these events without a mask on a time when safety and concern for others is an extreme priority. “
He added, “I really couldn’t be more disappointed in him.”
Although singing to yourself is a recognized way of knowing how long to wash your hands during the pandemic, and socially distant Italians have inspired us with their songs, real choirs have come to raise their voices virtually, due to the way the virus sometimes it is propagation: through particles in the air.
In March, fatal infections were being attributed to coral practices.
In October, the CDC issued the most recent transmission guidance for COVID-19, noting that in some cases, “transmission occurred in closed, poorly ventilated spaces that often involved activities that caused heavier breathing, such as singing or exercise.”
Cameron said in a television interview last week: “I am watching my community and seeing the devastation and suffering of people whose business has gone bankrupt. People who deal with anxiety, depression; increased suicide. The abused being quarantined with their aggressors and I can’t just ignore that. I love my neighbors and I want to give them hope. “
