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



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

One of Loughlin’s first roles was as Jody Travis on the series “The Edge of Night.” She appeared on the series from 1980 to 1984.

Four years after the end of “The Edge of Night,” the series “Full House” was born. In the series, Loughlin plays Rebecca Donaldson, later Rebecca Katsopolis, when her character marries Jesse Katsopolis, played by John Stamos. Aunt Becky and Uncle Jesse are fan favorites on the show.

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

Much of the original cast, as well as a few new faces, were part of the reboot, “Fuller House,” which focused more on the Tanner children.

After “Full House,” Loughlin starred in numerous television series, including “Summerland,” “In Case of Emergency” and “90210.”

She also appeared in several television films, such as “The Price of Heaven”, “Eastwick”, “A Mother’s Rage”, “Northpole: Open for Christmas” and “Every Christmas Has a Story”.
