Fashion mogul Mossimo Giannulli, and Fuller House actress Lori Loughlin are a recently
disgraced So Cal power couple with so much money they blew half a million bucks cheating
to get a daughter into college who didn't even want to be there.
"I don't really care about school, as you guys all know."
Whether you love them, hate them, forgive them, or forgot all about them, here's a peek
inside their insanely glamorous life of Loughlin, Giannulli, and their daughters Bella and Olivia
Jade.
If you thought Giannulli's name sounded familiar, you probably shopped at Target on the reg
between 2000 and 2017.
That's because Target carried Giannulli's clothing line Mossimo during that time.
That licensing deal helped make the brand, which Mossimo started with $100,000 of his
father's money, a ubiquitous and profitable fast fashion staple for years.
According to Celebrity Net Worth, Mossimo is worth a whopping $80 million.
But Giannulli isn't the only member of the family with a seven figure bank account.
Loughlin is worth $20 million on her own.
The actress, who is best known for her role as Aunt Becky on Full House and Fuller House,
has worked consistently on a variety of below-radar projects through the decades, keeping her
wallet fat.
That money came in handy, because as of the making of this video, both Loughlin and Giannulli
are out on a $1 million dollar bond each.
"I don't want Aunt Becky to end!
I don't want her to end!"
If you were rich and had to post a cool mil to ensure you didn't have to languish in jail
before your day in court, where would you want to spend your days?
Perhaps in an opulent, multi-million dollar mansion in Bel Air?
That's exactly where Loughlin and Giannulli are calling HQ, as that's where they've lived
since 2015.
The couple purchased the home in 2015 for just under $14 million.
The mansion overlooks the prestigious Bel-Air Country Club, playground of the SoCal elite.
It doesn't get any fancier than that!
Among the amenities, the mansion boasts an area of 12,000 square feet, and has six bedrooms
and nine bathrooms — pretty extravagant for a family of four.
Additionally, it has a lap pool, five garages, golf course access, a full bar, and an elegant
library, to name just a few of the amenities.
So pretty much anything you could want is right on-site!
After purchasing their lavish mansion, the Giannulli-Loughlin family didn't just move
in and settle down right away.
Rather, they first embarked on a massive renovation project that transformed the home from a luxurious-yet-generic
Mediterranean villa into a fully revamped and modern compound that Olivia Jade loves
to pose inside of.
You know they dropped a ton of money on that because when they listed the property in 2017,
it had a price tag of $35 million, up from the $14 million they paid for it.
If you thought this was the first time Giannulli and Loughlin bought a giant mansion and renovated
it with top-of-the-line materials, you'd be wrong.
It isn't even the second time, either.
The couple have actually done this a jaw-dropping seven times before, according to Elle Decor,
earning the duo the title of "serial renovators."
But these highly profitable undertakings are really Giannulli's babies, according to Loughlin.
And judging by the photos, it sure does.
Team Giannulli-Loughlin have been living high on the hog together for a long time — since
the later nineties, in fact, when they got married.
And Loughlin was not shy at all back then when it came to expressing her happiness about
her super glam accommodations.
She gushed in a 1999 interview with E! News,
Even though the home they were living in at the time wasn't as insanely lavish as their
current digs, they were definitely living the dream.
Plus they really enjoyed being at home — who wouldn't when you have it all?
And of course, they have staff to tend to their needs and desires.
As Giannulli revealed,
There's a whole genre of reality shows out there about some of the richest and most famous
families in America, and as it turns out, Loughlin and Giannulli were approached and
asked to do one.
But in the end, they opted not to participate.
Loughlin admitted in a 2018 interview with E! News,
It sounds like the kids were on board, but clearly Loughlin isn't as candid about her
opulent life as she was 20 years prior.
She added,
Additionally, Giannulli is a notoriously private person who reportedly doesn't like to be photographed.
Who knows what we might have learned about the family had they been on television all
this time?
"What's in my fridge?
Do you want a fridge tour?"
It's not just the matriarch and patriarch of the family who have enjoyed a life of total
luxury at The Giannulli-Loughlin Mansion.
The couple's children, Bella and Olivia Jade, have also enjoyed the posh lifestyle afforded
to them by their parents.
Consider, for example, the insane amount of closet space that Olivia Jade showed off in
a video on her YouTube channel.
She has multiple closets for her massive wardrobe and giant shoe collection, to the point where
she has closets just for sweaters, just for skirts, just for jackets, etc.
Don't forget her massive private bathroom, where she has stashes upon stashes of makeup
and hair products.
Girl has more stuff than the boutique down the street!
Watching the video of Olivia Jade's closet and bathroom tour, it's pretty obvious that
she scored some lucrative partnerships with clothing, makeup, and hair product companies.
It's also evident on her Instagram page, where she's made posts promoting hair products,
clothing brands, and her bronzing palette, to name just a few.
In fact, she's such a successful Instagram influencer that she's worth $1 million of
her own money, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
That's on top of mom and dad's combined $100 million!
"It's a difficult transition when you've put so much energy into these little people, but
I'm also happy that they're on their own and they're thriving."
Unfortunately for Olivia Jade, on the heels of the college admission cheating scandal,
many of her partners are dropping her.
For example, Sephora is no longer carrying her makeup palette, and publicly announced
that they have ended their partnership.
TRESemmé has also cut ties with the social media star, among other brands.
By the looks of it, Bella got to see some up-close and exciting action at a Los Angeles
Lakers game back in November of 2017, according to a post on her Instagram page.
In fact, she's so close to the gym floor that you can see just a row or two of seats in
front of her.
She wrote in the caption,
And it's more-than-likely that it was mom and dad's cash and/or connections that facilitated
this high-profile outing, which is a break from Bella's favorite activity: binge-watching.
"I've actually finished, like, 7, nope, that's, like 10 TV shows in the last, like, six months."
Despite being a TV star herself, Bella's momma Lori doesn't approve of her viewing habits,
preferring that her daughters focus on more refined pursuits ...
"I'm glad we're paying for that education."
Apparently the Giannulli-Loughlin family hobnobs with some other insanely rich folks, as Olivia
Jade has been friends with Gianna "Gigi" Caruso for years.
Caruso is the daughter of real estate mogul and chair of the USC board of trustees Rick
Caruso, whose net worth is — get this — $4 billion, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
Talk about having friends in high places!
As it turns out, Gigi, Olivia Jade, and their friends were on spring break together in the
Bahamas when news broke about the college admission cheating scandal.
Of course they were travelling in lavish style, too, as they were aboard Caruso's luxury yacht,
which is basically the Rolls Royce of yachts.
According to the Los Angeles Times, Caruso is the owner of Invictus, a custom-built,
216.54 ft superyacht that you can charter for just over half a mil a week.
Spending time in boats against the beautiful backdrop of the ocean seems to run in the
family, as Olivia Jade isn't the only person on team Loughlin-Giannulli to know port from
starboard.
Her sister Bella has posted quite a few selfies of herself soaking in the sunshine on her
Instagram page on several different occasions.
Back in 2014, Bella posted a shot of herself and a friend holding hands a July afternoon
with glistening water in the backdrop, while 2015 was the year of lounging in a boat with
friends in another post.
In 2016, she rang in the New Year on the water, according to another post, with palm trees
in the background.
So apparently life for the Giannulli girls regularly includes excursions out in the ocean,
something the rest of us mere mortals can only dream about.
It sure looks amazing, though!
When Olivia Jade was preparing to start her freshman year of college at USC, she admitted
in a now-deleted video on her YouTube page that balancing her work with school was going
to be hard.
The reason?
The nature of what she did as a social media influencer required a fair amount of travel
— to some exotic locales, too.
She shared in the video,
People magazine reports that Olivia Jade has no plans to return to USC in the wake of the
scandal, and her future standing at the school is unclear, as of the making of this video.
A source told the magazine,
Not to be outdone by her younger sister, Bella has also shared a few gorgeous snaps from
some pretty sweet looking vacation spots on her Instagram page.
Some of those spots appear to be a little more local than the others, such as this 2018
post of her strolling through a vineyard in what looks like Northern California.
She also posted two breathtaking photos in 2016 of some stunning coastline out of the
window of a chopper.
That's one way to travel, for sure!
In 2015 Bella was out and about in other beautiful places, in one post gazing out at palm trees
and perfectly blue water, and in another post preparing to go snorkeling.
And in 2014, she posted a dreamy shot from the chairlift at a snowy ski resort, complete
with a rainbow in the deep blue sky.
Make no mistake about it — Bella has been out and about in some pretty incredible destinations
that don't come cheap.
