Lori Loughlin has been sentenced to two months in prison for her involvement in the college admissions scam that involved several celebrities like Felicity Huffman last year. The actress will also have two years of supervised release as part of her sentence.
U.S. District judge Nathaniel Gorton conducted the sentencing via zoom Friday afternoon. Loughlin has also been required to pay a $150,000 fine and conduct 100 hours of community service due her being "an active and willful participant" illegally trying to get her daughters into the University of Southern California on rowing scholarships.
The Full House actress' sentence came just hours after her husband fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli was sentenced to five months in prison and ordered to pay a $250,000 fine for his involvement. The court claimed that Loughlin was a less active participant in the scam than her husband, which is why she received less of a sentence.
Loughlin was promptly fired from her roles on When Calls the Heart and Fuller House when the news broke in march 2019.
