Lori Loughlin's Daughter Olivia Jade Said Fashion Designer Father 'Faked His Way' Through College

Days before Lori Loughlin and her husband, fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli, were arrested for allegedly participating in a college admissions cheating scam to get their two daughters into college, their youngest, popular YouTuber Olivia Jade Giannulli spoke out about her dad’s former college experience in which he “faked” his way through his education.

. . .
“He didn’t come from a lot so it’s cool to see that he built it all himself,” she said. “He, like, built his whole entire brand and he wasn’t actually, like, I don’t know if I’m supposed to say this, ever enrolled in college. But he, like, faked his way through it and then he started his whole business with tuition money that his parents thought was going to college. That’s, like, such a different time. I don’t know if I was supposed to say that, but it’s okay.”

I was wondering the same

Katie Couric went to UVA; she’s very bright and her kids had access to a great education and opportunities.

PPP here and I know this - not trying to throw shade at Katie Couric (or anyone else), but it's something that I think most people think about in the back of their minds. Would the kids of celebrities - even smart ones - have gotten into elite schools without their parents' name/influence/money?

Generally, probably not.

Hallmark is SERIOUS about this. First she's fired, now they're pulling new episodes yet to air? Wow.

Well..almost every star on hallmark has a "clean wholesome image" for the most part. This is not surprising at all.

Will she and her DH and others actually serve time? That is what matters. Serve time, because house arrest and all that other BS is just yet another example of privilege getting away with everything. I am an immigrant, my DH is American and I was jumping with joy when DD was accepted to UMD and we chose other instate school for DS as we couldn't afford Delaware even or Boulder as out of state. And DS was offered legit spot on DI teams but they didn't offer athletic scholarship, he was good, but not good enough for a scholarship. Even if they thought we could afford out of state, we know we can't, no way we can afford 50K in Boulder yearly with 180K or even now over 200K income. I want them in prison. And my DD was offered Dean Scholar at another private college, and 23K in scholarship, which still makes it over 40K for DH and me and crushing her by telling her, sorry we just can't afford it. And out story is nothing compared to struggles of many families like mentioned above. In fact we are privileged so much as it is! The way I tell it to DD is, UMD is good enough because it is what we can afford and stop being a whiny DMV brat because it is an awesome school.

No they haven't been arrested, just charged.

I read an article that said that Huffman was arrested and Laughlin agreed to surrender.

Oh what? WHERE

TMZ

lol - She's one hell of a DESPERATE housewife now . . .

https://www.tmz.com/2019/03/12/felicity-huffman-arrest-guns-drawn-fbi-college-bribery/

Felicity Huffman knew she was a target of the federal investigation into bribery in the college admissions process ... but she had no idea 7 feds would show up at her door Tuesday morning with guns drawn.

Sources familiar with the arrest tell TMZ, 7 FBI agents showed up at Felicity's Hollywood Hills home at 6 AM and drew their weapons as they ordered Felicity to come out and surrender.

Pulling guns on a female celebrity with no known criminal record or history of violence is crazy!

Not crazy, she's a criminal

She has not been convicted of anything. It’s a damn shame people in this country have forgotten that simply because a person is arrested doesn’t make the person guilty. Police and FBI arrest and make allegations against people all the time., and some of these people are never convicted.

Except in this case, they have her recorded multiple times admitting to and participating in these crimes. She's a criminal!!!!!!!!

However, I think other than this these women have led pretty exemplary lives. I didn't think Martha should have been sent to jail and I don't think they should, either. Jails are bursting as it is and there are many people that are doing a lot worse yet to be caught because of.....resources?

Fine them, tax them, give them community service. Make them pay tuition for others or give scholarships.

Lori needs to be filming When Calls the Heart-Mom's favorite show.

This scandal is literally proof that you have no idea what kind of life these women lead when they aren't playing a character. They're trash. I guarantee they didn't just wake up that one day and do something wrong or bad. People who do crap like this do whatever benefits them when no one is looking.

This poor black teenager was held for 3 years at Rikers on suspicion of stealing a backpack because his family couldn't post bond. A backpack. He committed suicide when he was released because he was so traumatized.

Oh GOD no!!

It's a horrible, heartbreaking story. His name was Kalief Browder.

So the daughters go scurrying away and leaving USC saying they will be bullied - I say this is to avoid the humiliation of being expelled. Although USC (University of Spoiled Children) is living up to its name! The USC involvement is quite deep.Lori lost her job, her husband's brand is distancing themselves... so GOOD- if this happened to any one of us(in any way- taking $100 deduction too much - as opposed to the "contribution" they made for 500K which they wrote off, bribing etc.), I guarantee you we would be in jail. These people will go away with no jail time.. a piddly fine which is a drop in the bucket for them. Yes, shame- but ditsy daughter will still prevail for the kids following her who aren't at that stage of getting it.. I just hope the sponsorships dry up permanently. This is HORRIBLE for any child who is trying to just make their own life without the $$ like these people have.

To be fair the guy had sold his interest some time ago . That article is a bit misleading but it’s fox so there’s that

no, they were clear that it was a licensing deal and that they stopped actually working directly with him about a year ago. so there's that.

but a licensing deal is very lucrative - so it's a pretty bid deal.
