Even Though She Wasn’t There, Lori Loughlin Left Her Mark on 'Fuller House'
Let me tell you something truly heartwarming. Even though Lori Loughlin didn’t grace the final season of "Fuller House," her presence was still felt by her co-stars, according to the ever-charming Juan Pablo Di Pace. Now, you might be wondering how that happened, especially with everything she’s been through. Well, it turns out that Lori, despite her absence, made sure her fellow cast members knew she was thinking of them. That’s the kind of person she is—someone who doesn’t let circumstances get in the way of showing kindness.
“The last time we saw her was a long time ago, but I reached out to her recently, and she was absolutely wonderful in her response,” Juan Pablo, 40, exclusively shared with Closer Weekly. “It’s been months since we last spoke. But guess what? She sent us this absolutely adorable basket of cookies just before the final episode aired. Talk about a thoughtful gesture! It was such a sweet reminder of her warmth and generosity.”
A Family-Like Atmosphere on Set
Now, here’s the thing about the "Fuller House" set—it’s not just a workplace; it’s a family. Juan Pablo opened up about how much he’s going to miss the unique camaraderie that made their time together so special. “What I’m really going to miss is the chill vibe on set. You know how it is when you’re at a family dinner? Everyone might be different, but they all come together because they’re family. That’s exactly how it was with us,” he revealed. “We’re all different personalities, but we respect each other and work together beautifully. It’s rare to find that kind of balance in any workplace, let alone in the high-pressure world of showbiz. No egos, no drama—it was pure magic.”

“The best part of working together was the freedom to create and play with each other. We’d come up with the most outrageous ideas for scenes and dialogues, and it was pure joy. It’s that kind of creativity and camaraderie that I’ll miss the most,” Juan Pablo continued. “It’s not just about the work; it’s about the connections you make along the way. That’s what makes ‘Fuller House’ so special.”
Lori's Journey and Looking Ahead
Of course, we can’t ignore the elephant in the room. Lori could have been part of the final season of "Fuller House," but her involvement in the infamous college admissions scandal changed everything. In March 2019, Lori and her husband, Mossimo Giannulli, found themselves at the center of a national scandal when they were accused of paying half a million dollars in bribes to secure spots for their daughters, Bella, 21, and Olivia, 20, on the University of Southern California rowing team—even though neither of them had any rowing experience. It was a shocking turn of events that left fans heartbroken.
