"**Fuller House's Handling of Michelle's Absence**"

During its first few seasons, Fuller House referenced Michelle Tanner from time to time. But, as the show went on, and it became clear that Mary-Kate and Ashley were set on not revisiting the role, the show also gradually stopped mentioning her. The most interesting reference to the character, however, was an indirect one. In Fuller House season 5, episode 1 Danny (Bob Saget) made a statement saying: “it’s so nice to have three daughters again” while talking to DJ, Stephanie, and Kimmy, implying that Kimmy had taken Michelle's spot in the family.

The theory claims that Michelle didn't actually get the chance to grow up because she died in the Full House finale, as opposed to just dying recently. In the original show's final arc, Michelle suffered a head injury when she fell off her horse.
