Lori Loughlin is back on social media following a few tough years in her personal life. Lori and her ex-husband, Mossimo Giannuli, pleaded guilty in 2019 to charges of conspiracy to commit fraud after paying $500,000 to help get their daughters into the University of Southern California. Following the scandal, Lori Loughlin left social media before serving two months in a California prison in 2020. She’s kept a low profile for the last several years, but in August 2026, Lori decided to make a comeback, and she went big.
