Kimmy was the quirky and outgoing neighbour and best friend of D.J. Tanner, one of the main characters in the series.

29 years later, the actress looks just as youthful as she did during her TV heyday.

Andrea took to Instagram to post a picture with John Stamos, 60, who played the legendary Uncle Jesse on the sitcom.

One fan commented: "Convinced the cast of Full House don't age!"

Whilst another added: "You both don’t age!"

A third penned: "Why does it look like you haven't changed @andreabarber."

And a fourth echoed: "You both look amazing!"

Following her role on Full House, Andrea decided to leave Hollywood behind for good.

She earned a bachelor's degree in English from Whittier College before pursuing a master's degree in Women's Studies from the University of York, England.

The star then began her career in education.

Andrea told People: "It was a pretty seamless transition for me. And I was ready.

“I never looked back, and I know that sounds crazy, but I had a lot of success as a child actor, and it really doesn’t get better than Full House for me.”

Although Andrea thought her acting days were over, she returned to the set for the Fuller House reboot and later explored more acting opportunities, including an appearance on Nickelodeon's That Girl Lay Lay.
