Candace Cameron Bure revealed that she’s been in contact with her former "Fuller House" co-star Lori Loughlin following her release from prison.
Loughlin along with her husband, fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli, each served time behind bars as a result of their involvement in the now-infamous college admissions scandal. Although her involvement with the scam cost the 56-year-old actress her role on the Netflix sitcom revival as well as the Hallmark series "When Calls the Heart," it seems her co-star is maintaining a friendship.
Bure appeared on "Daily Blast Live" Tuesday where she was directly asked by the hosts if she keeps in contact with Loughlin now that she’s back home having been released from her two-month prison stay in December.
"Yes, I’ve talked to Lori [Loughlin] many times. And she’s doing well," Bure noted.
LORI LOUGHLIN’S SENTENCE IS A ‘GREAT OUTCOME’ FOR HER, LEGAL EXPERT SAYS
Unfortunately for curious fans, the actress didn’t seem to want to get into more detail on her current relationship with Loughlin.
Back in August, Loughlin and Giannulli pleaded guilty to charges stemming from $500,000 payments to scam mastermind William "Rick" Singer to get their daughters, Isabella and Olivia Jade, recruited onto the University of Southern California crew team. The two had never participated in the sport.
In a plea agreement, Loughlin agreed to serve two months and pay a $150,000 fine, along with two years of supervised release and 100 hours of community service. Giannulli agreed to pay a $250,000 fine with two years of supervised release and 250 hours of community service, in addition to a five-month sentence.
