John Stamos Defends Lori Loughlin, Blames Mossimo Giannulli for College Scandal

The couple are living apart with no legal case filed.

Overview

  • On the Good Guys podcast, Stamos described Giannulli as a "terrible narcissist," said he will never speak to him again, and argued Loughlin "didn't deserve" the fallout from the 2019 case.
  • Stamos recalled Loughlin telling him "Mossimo handles all that stuff" when the scandal first surfaced and said she is "devastated" by the current separation.
  • Loughlin and Giannulli are living separately with no legal proceedings underway, according to Loughlin’s representative, while Giannulli has declined to comment in multiple reports.
  • TMZ reported, citing unnamed sources, that a 1997 prenuptial agreement could keep their assets separate, a claim that has not been independently verified.
  • Page Six reported that Loughlin found "incriminating" texts and emails on Giannulli’s phone, an allegation uncorroborated by other outlets; both pleaded guilty in 2020 and served prison terms tied to the admissions scheme.
