Lori Loughlin and Mossimo Giannulli Separate After College Admissions Scandal

In a surprising turn of events, former "Full House" actress Lori Loughlin and her husband, fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli, have decided to separate after 25 years of marriage. The announcement comes more than six years after the couple were embroiled in the infamous college admissions scandal, known as "Operation Varsity Blues."

Back in 2019, Loughlin and Giannulli were accused of paying $500,000 in bribes to secure their daughters' admission to the University of Southern California, despite the girls not being involved in crew, the sport they were allegedly recruited for. The scandal rocked the nation, leading to the arrest of 33 parents who were charged with similar crimes. Both Loughlin and Giannulli eventually pleaded guilty, with Loughlin serving two months in jail and Giannulli receiving a five-month sentence.

Since her release, Loughlin has slowly returned to the spotlight, reprising her role on shows like "Blue Bloods" and "Curb Your Enthusiasm." In a recent interview, she spoke about the need for resilience, quoting the popular 1997 song "Tubthumping" by Chumbawamba, saying, "Every day, we're met with different obstacles, but, for me, it's like that song says, 'I get knocked down, but I get up again.'"

Now, as the couple navigates their separation, the public is left to wonder what the future holds for Lori Loughlin and Mossimo Giannulli, two individuals who have weathered a significant storm and are now charting a new path forward.
