Lori Loughlin SPLITS from Mossimo Giannulli after 28-year marriage… as she embraces Anne Heche’s ex
Lori Loughlin has split from husband Mossimo Giannulli after a 28-year marriage.
‘They are living apart and taking a break from their marriage. There are no legal proceedings at this time’ Loughlin’s representative Elizabeth Much told People.
The Daily Mail has contacted representatives for comment and has yet to hear back.
This comes after the star was seen apparently being comforted by Anne Heche’s ex and her former co-star James Tupper outside the Bird Streets Club in LA.
The Queens, New York-born actress, 61, starred with Tupper, 60, in 2023 TV movie, Fall Into Winter.
In May 2020, Loughlin and her husband Giannulli, 62, pleaded guilty in connection with conspiracy charges in the college admission bribery case.
Loughlin, a cast member on the hit sitcom Full House and its Netflix reboot, received a two-month jail sentence along with a fine of $150,000 and 150 hours of community service following the guilty plea.

Loughlin, who played Rebecca ‘Aunt Becky’ Katsopolis on the family comedy, began her sentence at a federal prison in Dublin, California in October of 2020 and was released that December.
Loughlin’s husband Giannulli received a five-month sentence with a fine of $250,000 and 250 hours of community service.
He began his prison sentence in November of 2020 and was transferred to home confinement in April of 2021, about a month before his sentence ended.
The celeb couple were busted in what was called Operation Varsity Blues – a massive nationwide scandal which involved 33 parents.
At the center of the case was Loughlin and Giannulli’s youngest daughter, influencer Olivia Jade.
In YouTube videos posted before the scandal erupted, Olivia told fans she didn’t ‘really care about school’ and was more interested in the social scene as she prepared for her upcoming college experience.
The influencer gave her followers advice on applying to university – just days before federal agents arrested her parents for their involvement in the conspiracy.

She has since apologized for the comments, and has returned to social media after a brief hiatus when the scandal unraveled in March 2019.
Earlier this year, she insisted she was a ‘straight A student’ who ‘worked really hard’ in high school even before her parents paid $500,000 for her to get into the University of Southern California.
Professionally, Loughlin’s legal troubles kept her sidelined from Fuller House’s fifth season and her return to the small screen came late last year appearing on a two-part Christmas special for the series When Hope Calls.
Earlier this summer, she appeared on her first red carpet in the wake of the scandal, as in June she was at RJ’s Place for the DesignCare 2022 Gala, benefitting the HollyRod Foundation.
