Their separation came five years after the couple were entangled in the Operation Varsity Blues scandal, pleading guilty to wire and mail fraud related to paying hundreds of thousands in bribes to get their daughters into the University of Southern California.

In a candid interview on the “Good Guys” podcast in October 2025, John Stamos defended Loughlin, calling Mossimo “a terrible narcissist,” and her “a saint.” He later added that he knows she didn’t have much to do with the scandal, saying Mossimo “dragged her through that.”

Hollywood stars Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin were among 13 parents scheduled to appear in federal court in Boston Wednesday for the first time since they were charged last month in a massive college admissions cheating scandal. They were among 50 people - including coaches, powerful financiers, and entrepreneurs - charged in a brazen plot in which wealthy parents allegedly schemed to bribe sports coaches at top colleges to admit their children. Many of the parents allegedly paid to have someone else take the SAT or ACT exams for their children or correct their answers, guaranteeing them high scores.

He continued, “She didn’t deserve to be dragged through that… I know for a fact it was all him.”
