Famous American actress Lori Loughlin, best known for playing Rebecca on Full House, is once again in the headlines. This time, it’s not for her work but for her troubled marriage with fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli. After being married for almost three decades, reports say that the couple has separated and may soon get divorced.
According to people close to them, Lori and Mossimo are now living apart. Divorce papers have not yet been filed, but that seems to be a deliberate move. Lori’s lawyers are reportedly reviewing a very old prenuptial agreement that could decide how much, if anything, she would get from their fortune.
When Lori married Mossimo in 1997, she signed a prenup that clearly stated their money and property would stay separate. At that time, Mossimo’s net worth was around 100 million dollars, and the agreement was designed to protect his wealth. If that prenup still holds up in court, it could mean that Lori won’t get any part of his money, not even the earnings made during their marriage. The couple is believed to have around 80 million dollars in combined wealth now.
As for why they separated, sources claim that Lori found shocking messages and emails on Mossimo’s phone. People close to her said she felt betrayed and heartbroken. Lori had hoped things would improve after Mossimo’s release from prison, but instead, they reportedly became worse. She was tired of being taken advantage of and decided to step away.
Even though they are not officially divorced yet, both are said to be spending time apart and thinking about what comes next. They share two adult daughters, and for their sake, the couple might still try to fix things. But at the moment, they are leading separate lives and facing emotional distance after years of tension.
Their marriage had already suffered a huge blow years ago during the 2019 college admissions scandal. Lori and Mossimo were accused of paying half a million dollars to secure a place for their daughter, Olivia Jade, at the University of Southern California. They admitted to their involvement and both served prison sentences, Lori for two months and Mossimo for five.
That scandal not only damaged their public image but also deeply affected their relationship. Friends close to them said their marriage began falling apart after the legal case. The embarrassment, the court battles, and the time in prison created lasting cracks between them. Mossimo reportedly blamed Lori for how things turned out, while Lori felt emotionally drained and unsupported.
Now, after 28 years together, their marriage stands at a crossroads. Whether they finalize their divorce or attempt to reconcile, one thing is clear, the bond that once made them one of Hollywood’s most admired couples has been through more pain and struggle than most could imagine.
