Lori Loughlin’s career has been filled with sitcom success but has also been controversial with the 2019 college admissions scandal

American actress Lori Loughlin, best known for her role in Full House, was born on July 28, 1964 in New York City.

One of Loughlin’s first acting roles was as Jodie Travis in the television series The Edge of Night, which she starred on from 1980 to 1984.

Four years after “The Edge of Nights” ended, “Full House” began. On the show, Loughlin played Rebecca Donaldson (later known as Rebecca Katsopolis), married to Jesse Katsopolis, played by John Stamos. Aunt Becky and Uncle Jesse were fan favorites on the series.

When the original Full House ended in 1995, it wasn’t the end of the show.

Many of the original cast members, along with some newcomers, have joined the Fuller House reboot, which focuses on the Tanner kids.

After Full House, Loughlin appeared in numerous TV shows, including Summerland, In Case of Emergency, and 90210.

She also appeared in several TV movies, including “The Price of Heaven,” “Eastwick,” “A Mother’s Wrath,” “North Pole: A Treasure Opened at Christmas” and “There’s a Story to Tell at Christmas.”

In 2020, Loughlin pleaded guilty to conspiring to commit wire fraud and mail fraud in the 2019 college admissions bribery scandal led by William “Rick” Singer, who paid $500,000 to get his daughters into the University of Southern California using fake athletic profiles.

After pleading guilty, she served two months in jail, completed 150 hours of community service, and paid a $150,000 fine.
