TV father knows best – at least when it comes to approving boyfriends.
As Full House's Danny Tanner, Bob Saget, along with the rest of America, watched Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen grow up in the shared role of his youngest daughter, Michelle Tanner.
These days the wildly successful 22-year-old twins make headlines for their fashion sense and their boyfriend choices. Mary-Kate has been dating N.Y.C. artist Nate Lowman, 29, for 10 months, while Ashley has been seeing National Treasure actor Justin Bartha, 30, for 5 months.
"I approve of anyone that makes my friends happy, and they're my friends," Saget, 52, told PEOPLE at "Cool Comedy, Hot Cuisine," a benefit for the Scleroderma Research Fund at Caroline's in New York on Tuesday. "I am protective of the people I love."

There are no wedding bells in Ashley Olsen's near future, according to her rep.
"Contrary to several tabloid reports, Ashley Olsen is not engaged to be married," Nicole Caruso said in a statement exclusively to PEOPLE Wednesday. "Ashley is dating Justin Bartha and they are very happy."
Earlier this week tabloid reports began surfacing that Olsen, 22, and Bartha, 30, are planning an elaborate $1 million wedding in the South of France.
In September, Olsen visited her actor beau on the set of his movie The Hangover in Las Vegas. Last month, they were spotted getting cozy over dinner at L.A.'s Sunset Tower Hotel's Tower Bar.

Ashley Olsen, celebrating her coffee-table book release over champagne with sister (and co-author) Mary-Kate and her sometimes-boyfriend Nate Lowman. The group held their festivities at New York's Beatrice Inn. And a few tables down, Lindsay Lohan was letting loose with Samantha Ronson. "Lindsay was getting wild like the good old days," a source says. And, no, the groups never interacted.

Want to date an Olsen? You'll have to also impress her twin.
The famous sisters, 22, tell Oprah Winfrey that they have a say in each other's relationships – at least to some extent.
"I just support her," Mary-Kate Olsen says about twin sister Ashley in a new Oprah Winfrey Show interview set to air Thursday. "If she doesn't like him, I won't like him. If she likes him, I'll like him."

Ashley Olsen Feeds Her Beau Dinner in L.A.

Ashley Olsen and boyfriend Justin Bartha, double-dating with another couple at L.A.'s Sunset Tower Hotel's Tower Bar. The foursome took a table in the middle of the restaurant, but that certainly didn’t deter Olsen from cozying up to her beau. The two sat next to each other, often holding hands and making plenty of eye contact. Over dinner, the petite starlet – who appeared to be in a great mood – sipped a martini and even fed Bartha bites of her organic roast chicken.

Between takes, the two interacted, and Bartha would touch her face tenderly. According to the source, he referred to Olsen as his "girlfriend." While in Sin City, the two stayed in a suite in the Augustus Tower at Caesars Palace, and Olsen relaxed in the spa while Bartha continued filming.
