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


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

One of Loughlin's first acting roles was as Jody Travis on the series “The Edge of Night,” which she appeared on from 1980 to 1984.

Four years after the end of “The Edge of Night” came the beginning of “Full House.” On the show, Loughlin played Rebecca Donaldson, later Rebecca Katsopolis, when her character married Jesse Katsopolis, played by John Stamos. Aunt Becky and Uncle Jesse were fan favorites on the series.

When the original “Full House” came to an end in 1995, it wasn't the end of the show.

Much of the original cast, plus some new faces, were part of the reboot, “Fuller House,” which focused more on the Tanner children.

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

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