It won’t be a “Full House” for actor Lori Loughlin and her fashion designer husband, Mossimo Giannulli, much longer.
People is reporting that the couple is separating after 27 years of 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 the publication.
The split seems to have been in the works for a while, considering the couple put their 11,800-square-foot mansion in Hidden Hills up for sale for $16.5 million in February.
The couple first met at a Los Angeles restaurant and dated for two years before eloping in Newport Beach on Thanksgiving Day in 1997. Both Loughlin and Giannulli wore ski hats and sweatpants for the impromptu “I dos,” according to the Hollywood Reporter.
Although both Loughlin and Giannulli had success in their chosen careers, their popularity took a tumble in 2019 when they were accused of bribing employees at the University of Southern California to secure the “fraudulent admission” of their two daughters, Olivia Jade and Isabella Rose, to the school’s crew team as purported athletic recruits.
Loughlin and Giannulli both agreed to plead guilty in connection with the nationwide scandal. Giannulli served five months in jail and Loughlin served just under two months. The couple also agreed to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines.
Loughlin and Giannulli’s announcement comes just days after Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban announced they were splitting after 19 years together.
