EXCLUSIVE: Injured Jodie Sweetin Talks Wedding Plans, Future of 'Fuller House'
A broken leg can't stop Jodie Sweetin!
The Fuller House star hobbled along the orange carpet at the 2017 Kids' Choice Awards on Saturday, where she had accessorized her flowy white-and-pink dress with a pair of crutches.
"Even if I didn't want to come, I had to come because my kids wanted to be here," Jodie told ET's Lauren Zima. "But we're nominated for an award, so I was like, 'There's no way I'm missing it. I will crutch down the orange carpet, and I will be there.'"
And that's exactly what she did!
Not only did her daughters -- 8-year-old Zoie and 6-year-old Beatrix, whom she shares with ex-husband Cody Herpin and ex-husband Morty Coyle, respectively -- get to attend their very first awards show, Jodie's fiancé, Justin Hodak, also joined them.
Jodie and Justin got engaged in January 2016, but their wedding plans are currently up in the air. "Every time we think about it, it just keeps getting pushed a little bit further," she admitted of a wedding date. "We'll get through the broken leg first."

The 36-year-old actress snapped her ankle and tibia in January while hopping a fence to retrieve a toy for daughter Bea, and she told ET that she'll be on crutches for another three weeks with "no walking."

Fuller House ended up taking home the award for Favorite TV Show -- Family, but on the orange carpet, Jodie admitted to ET that the original Full House series never really got its due on the awards circuit.
"We were always a huge fan favorite but the critics never loved us," she said. "[Fuller House has] been really lucky. We won the People's Choice Awards for Favorite Premium
Comedy, we won a Teen Choice Award, we're nominated for a Kids' Choice Award, so fingers crossed we can take it for the sweep. But that's really who our fan base is -- it's the fans, it's the
people that watch the show."
Well, Jodie, your triple crown dreams came true!
Fuller Housebegins filming season three on Monday, and Jodie hopes it will be far from the last one.
"We'd love to do another eight or 10 seasons," she said. "As long as we can come up with really fun story lines, which I don't think there's any
shortage of, we'll keep going and as long as the fans love us, we love doing what we do."
