Loughlin and Mossimo Giannulli confirmed their split in October. Sources said their marriage broke down under the strain of their high-profile college admissions scandal.
In 2020, the couple had pleaded guilty to wire and mail fraud, following a case involving their two daughters.
They were accused of paying $500,000 for their daughters’ admission into the University of Southern California. Olivia Jade and Isabella Rose were falsely listed as recruits of the college’s crew team, but neither of them had ever played the sport.

Loughlin served about two months in prison, while Giannulli served five.
Sources said their marriage has “never been the same after weathering the college admission fallout and the prison sentences together.”
“Lori feels betrayed,” a source told People in January. “They’re in very different places right now, and it’s unlikely that they’ll find their way back together.”

Calling the school scandal a “turning point,” one source told Us Weekly in January that the actress felt Giannulli had gotten her “involved.”
“She didn’t fully blame him, but he spearheaded it,” the source said. “She never fully forgave him and never fully got over it, and they were never the same after.”
While “Lori is still extremely angry with him,” Giannulli continued to see her as a “lovely person” and “incredible mom.”
“He wants everything resolved quietly,” the People source said.
Insiders said Loughlin still felt “betrayed” by Giannulli for spearheading their controversial actions

Loughlin’s Full House costar John Stamos had no inhibitions when he shared his thoughts on the couple’s breakup.
“She put up with a lot over the years of this guy,” the actor said during an October appearance on the Good Guys podcast.
Stamos said Loughlin was “devastated,” and he hated seeing her “go through this.”
“For a girl who has lived her life really well, a good person, a good mother, a good wife — I know all this for a fact — to be thrown into now this separation and, you know, exploding, blowing up her family this way,” he said.
“Oh great, another member of the ‘same face’ club,” a critic commented online
