Lori Loughlin is reportedly devastated after her split with husband Mossimo Giannullli after 28 years of marriage.

“People around Lori and Mossimo have known they have been going through a really hard time in the last year,” a source told Us Weekly.

“This isn’t a shock to people around them. It has been a rough time for Lori. She is devastated,” the source said.

The insider noted that Loughlin, 61, “thought a break could help” her relationship with Giannulli, 62, but “they are not on the same page.”

According to the source, “they will not reconcile — there is currently no chance — and will ultimately divorce.”

The fashion designer has “been on dates” but the “Full House” star “has not.”

On Oct. 2, the Post confirmed the former couple had split.

“They are living apart and taking a break from their marriage. There are no legal proceedings at this time,” Loughlin’s rep, Elizabeth Much, said at the time.

A day later, Giannulli was seen out with hair stylist Hannah Harrison, but the 32-year-old told Us Weekly that their relationship was strictly platonic.

“I feel like it was bad timing. I went to the [G/FORE Supply] store not knowing that his separation had been announced,” Harrison said in a statement. “I was going there to meet him. … He was introducing me to the guys there so I could pull clothes [for Giannulli’s brand G/FORE].”

Loughlin was also spotted out to dinner with her “Fall Into Winter” co-star, James Tupper in the following days.

The Hallmark star married Giannulli in 1997 and the duo share daughters Olivia Jade, 26, and Isabella Rose.

Mossimo is also dad to Gianni, 34, whom he shares with first wife Chris Giannulli.

“He’s my guy, he’s my person,” Loughlin gushed to Entertainment Tonight in 2018, adding that the key to their successful relationship is “communicating, it’s listening, it’s picking and choosing your battles. It’s being flexible, it’s all of that.”

Loughlin and Mossimo’s split came just six years after they were embroiled in the infamous 2019 college admissions scandal.

The pair pleaded guilty in May 2020 to bribing their daughters’ way into the University of Southern California as fake rowing recruits.

Loughlin received a two-month sentence, while Giannulli was given a five-month sentence.

The couple were released from jail in December 2020 and April 2021, respectively.

Loughlin slowly got back to acting after serving time, appearing as Abigail Stanton in “When Hope Calls: A Country Christmas” — a spinoff of “When Calls the Heart.”

She also acted in a slew of Good American Family films.

Loughlin spoke out about the importance of forgiveness in her first major interview since being released from prison.

“I try to be a forgiving person. I’m not one to hold onto stuff. Stuff happens to everyone. We’ve all been in positions to ask for forgiveness but to ask for it, you have to learn and know how to give forgiveness, too,” she told First for Women Magazine in April 2024.

“My family wasn’t one to hold grudges. I didn’t grow up in a household where if you made a mistake, you weren’t forgiven,” Loughlin continued. “No one is perfect, we all make mistakes. So I was always told to let stuff go. And I think for your own health, you have to let things go because you can’t hang on to negativity. Life’s too short.”

She also revealed that “persevering” is key to tackling life’s ups and downs.

“As an actress, I hear ‘no’ a lot, so I just have to be myself and persevere and try not to let in negativity,” Loughlin explained in the interview.

“My advice is to just keep moving forward. Everyone has good times and bad times. That’s life. I think you just have to pick yourself up. Nobody said life was going to be a breeze. There’s beauty in life, but there’s also hardship in life.”
