John Stamos Backs Lori Loughlin, Blames Mossimo Giannulli for College Admissions Scheme

His podcast remarks follow news that the couple are living apart without court action.

Overview

  • On the Good Guys podcast released Oct. 20, Stamos praised Loughlin as a "saint" and said she was not the architect of the 2019 scheme.
  • He labeled Giannulli a "terrible narcissist," claimed he "dragged her through" the scandal, and said he never plans to speak to him again.
  • Stamos recalled Loughlin telling him "Mossimo handles all that stuff" and recounted her prison story about joining a book club to underscore her resilience.
  • Loughlin and Giannulli pleaded guilty in 2020 after prosecutors said they paid $500,000 to list their daughters as fake crew recruits at USC; she served two months and he served five, along with fines and supervised release.
  • Loughlin’s representative confirmed on Oct. 2 that the pair are living apart with no legal filings, while unverified reports about alleged incriminating messages have circulated and Giannulli declined comment to TMZ.
