The outing comes months after her split from Mossimo Giannulli, her husband of nearly 28 years.

College Admissions Scandal ‘Changed Everything’ For Loughlin And Giannulli’s Marriage

Loughlin and Giannulli’s split may trace back further than initially thought, with new reports pointing to the infamous college admissions scandal as a major turning point in their marriage. While earlier claims suggested tension began after Loughlin allegedly discovered “incriminating” messages on Giannulli’s phone, an insider says the damage was already done years earlier.

According to a source, the couple struggled to recover after being indicted for paying $500,000 to fixer Rick Singer in a scheme to present their daughters, Olivia Jade Giannulli and Isabella Rose Giannulli, as recruited rowers to gain admission into University of Southern California. “The school scandal was a turning point, and they never really connected or recovered their relationship after that,” the source shared.

“She felt that he got her involved. She didn’t fully blame him, but he spearheaded it,” the insider added, noting that Loughlin “never fully forgave him and never fully got over it, and they were never the same after.”
