Things just got even worse for the family of Lori Loughlin, as the boyfriend of her daughter Olivia Jade Giannulli was arrested for driving under the influence earlier this month.
Page Six has confirmed that Jackson Guthy, 24, was pulled over in Santa Monica, California on September 7 and booked into the county jail at 3:13 pm. County records show that he was cited for a misdemeanor and released later that day at 7:28 pm.
Olivia Jade, 21, first started dating in early 2019, but they went on to break up in May of that year after her parents became embroiled in the college admissions scandal. By August of 2019, however, the couple had reunited, and they have been together ever since.
Guthy’s arrest came days after Loughlin and her husband, designer Mossimo Giannulli, were sentenced on charges related to them paying $500,000 in bribe money to have Olivia Jade and her older sister Isabella admitted to the University of Southern California as members of the crew team, even though neither girl had ever rowed before.
A judge sentenced Loughlin to two months in jail, a $150,000 fine and 150 hours of community service. Meanwhile, Giannulli was sentenced to five months in jail, a $250,000 fine and 250 hours of service.
During her sentencing hearing, Loughlin became emotional as she addressed the judge.
“I made an awful decision. I went along will the plan to give my daughters an unfair advantage in the college admissions process,” she said. “In doing so, ignored my intuition and allowed myself to be swayed from my moral compass. I thought I was acting out of love for my children, but in reality, I had only undermined and diminished my daughters’ abilities and accomplishments.”
“While I wish I could go back and do things differently, I can only take responsibility and move forward,” Loughlin added. “I have great faith in God and I believe in redemption and I will do everything in my power to redeem myself and use this experience as a catalyst to do good and give back for the rest of my life. Your honor, I am truly, profoundly and deeply sorry. I am ready to face the consequences and make amends.”
