Lori Loughlin, the wholesome face of family TV, has just dropped a bombshell by walking away from her 28-year marriage to Mossimo Giannulli after uncovering some eyebrow-raising messages on his phone.
Page Six reported that Loughlin, once a household name for her role on "Full House," decided to end things with Giannulli after a long union marred by scandal, followed by the discovery of incriminating texts and emails that pushed her over the edge.
Their story took a dark turn when both Loughlin and Giannulli landed in hot water over the Varsity Blues college admissions scandal, admitting to shelling out $500,000 to falsely present their daughters, Olivia Jade, 26, and Isabella, 27, as rowing recruits to secure spots at the University of Southern California.
Both served prison time for their actions, a humbling fall for a couple once seen as picture-perfect, and a stark reminder that wealth can’t always buy integrity.
While many hoped they’d emerge stronger, it seems the cracks were too deep to mend in a culture that often prioritizes image over substance.
According to a close friend, the final straw came when Loughlin stumbled upon a trove of questionable communications on Giannulli’s device.
“Truly, the tipping point came when Lori found a bunch of text messages,” a friend revealed to Page Six, painting a picture of betrayal that no amount of PR spin could gloss over.
While some might argue privacy in marriage is sacred, one has to wonder if Giannulli thought he could outsmart the very woman who stood by him through public humiliation.
Just hours after news of the split broke, Giannulli was spotted with stylist Hannah Harrison at his G/FORE Supply store in Beverly Hills, California, raising more than a few eyebrows.
Harrison quickly chalked it up to “bad timing,” insisting the encounter was purely for shopping, though the optics in today’s hyper-scrutinizing world couldn’t be worse.
In a society obsessed with canceling first and asking questions later, perhaps we should pause before assuming the worst, though timing like this does little to quiet the rumor mill.
Meanwhile, Loughlin is holding down the fort at the family’s Hidden Hills, California, home, listed for sale at $14.95 million after an initial asking price of $16.5 million in February, signaling perhaps a desire to close this chapter entirely.
Her daughters, Olivia Jade and Isabella, are firmly in her corner, as are friends like James Tupper, her co-star in Great American Family films such as “Fall Into Winter,” showing that even in Tinseltown, loyalty still exists outside progressive echo chambers.
Giannulli, for his part, has been splitting time between Orange County and the family’s Idaho house, while Loughlin, recently seen smiling, seems ready to reclaim her life—proof that resilience isn’t just a buzzword peddled by self-help gurus.
