Haunted by fears she’ll be locked up for decades, disgraced Fuller House actress Lori Loughlin is scrounging for prison survival tips, insiders snitched.
“Lori’s resigning herself to the reality that she may be doing some serious time,” and is seeking “real survivor skills,” said a source close to the scandal-scarred sitcom star.
Lori, 55, and her husband, Mossimo Giannulli, face up to 60 years behind bars if convicted for allegedly paying half a million bucks to fixer William “Rick” Singer to get daughters Isabella, 21, and Olivia, 20, into the University of Southern California.
Both parents have pleaded not guilty, and their lawyers have claimed the government is “concealing” evidence showing Lori and Mossimo, 56, believed they were making “legitimate donations” to the school. But sources said the actress is still prepping for the worst-case scenario!
