Lori Loughlin and Mossimo Giannulli’s Marriage Secrets Revealed!

The two played husband and wife and Uncle Jesse and Aunt Becky on the hit series Full House for eight years, and fans always suspected a real-life romance between the two! But in a 2013 interview with The National ENQUIRER, while Lori was already married, John admitted: “I would say that she could be the one that got away." He also revealed they "went on a date to Disneyland before we were both married."

Prior to saying "I do" in 1997, both Lori and Mossimo were married to other people. Lori was hitched to Michael R. Burns, the Vice-chairman of Lionsgate from 1989 until 1996. Details of Moss' first marriage remain unknown.

Rather than a typical lavish celebrity wedding, the duo eloped in 1997, just two years after they met at an LA restaurant! "Moss and I had both been married before, so we thought, ‘Well, it didn’t really work out well for us the first time around, so maybe we’ll elope and see how it goes and tell people,’” Lori once told Entertainment Tonight. “We had talked about doing a wedding and we just thought, 'Let's get up and let's go do it.’”

During a 2018 interview with Entertainment Tonight, Lori admitted she and Moss had been celebrating the wrong anniversary for two decades! "I was having dinner with Candace Cameron Bure and Marilu Henner, and you know, Marilu has that incredible memory," she explained to the news outlet. "Somehow we started talking about my elopement and I said, 'Yeah, we got up on Thanksgiving morning'... We had Moss' best friend and a minister meet us, and we got married at sunrise and then we went to Thanksgiving dinner and we told everybody." "Marilu happened to say, 'Oh, what is your wedding date?' And I said, 'It's November 25, 1997,' and she goes, 'No no, November 25 was a Tuesday... November 27, 1997, that was Thanksgiving,'" Loughlin continued. "She was right! And on my marriage certificate, they had written Nov. 25 and that's what it says on my marriage license." Lori continued, "So I called my husband, and I'm like, 'Oh my goodness, we have been celebrating two days early!'" she said with a laugh. "So it's actually November 27, 1997... I think we're going to make [our anniversary] a three-day festival now."  

During an interview with The ENQUIRER 15 years ago, Lori admitted she prioritized her family over her career! “I made a conscious decision to put being a wife and mom ahead of career, and I’ve never regretted it,” she shared.  “When I did it, I knew there was a good chance I might never be back where I was — starring in a hit TV show — and I was O.K. with that." Lori continued,  “I felt lucky that once in my life I’d had an opportunity to be in a show like Full House. When I met Moss and we decided to have kids, I said, ‘I’m going to be there for them.’ I limited myself a lot. I lost a lot of roles because I wouldn’t travel. But I wanted to be with my kids — and I still do."

In what has been perhaps the biggest test of their relationship, Lori and Mossimo have allegedly been involved in a college admissions scam that got them arrested prior to their hefty bails. Only time will tell if they make it out of this legal mess still as husband and wife!
