Former “Fuller House” star Lori Loughlin is just a few weeks into her two month prison sentence for her role in the college admissions scandal. Though sources initially said that she was struggling with life behind bars after beginning her sentence on October 30, she seems to be getting used to life in the Federal Corrections Institute in Dublin, California.

“Lori has been doing OK and has made several friends,” the insider told US Weekly. “She hangs out with a group and keeps to herself.”

The source added that Loughlin, 56, does “attend church services and has been praying a lot.”

Coronavirus is reportedly a “concern” for Loughlin, who is currently “healthy,” according to the source.

“The other women are happy Lori is there because officials are taking COVID-19 seriously with a high-profile inmate,” the insider explained. “It would be horrible PR if Lori got COVID-19 and got really sick.”

Loughlin’s husband, fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli, began his five month sentence for his role in the college admissions scandal last week.

“The only communication she will have with Moss for the next month will be by updates from the girls,” the source said, referring to the couple’s daughters, Isabella and Olivia Jade Giannulli.

As we head into the holiday season, Loughlin is holding out hope that she will only be missing one holiday with family.

“Thanksgiving is going to be really hard, but she will be home for Christmas,” the source said.

Earlier this year, Loughlin and Giannulli were sentenced to prison on charges related to them paying $500,000 in bribe money to have their two daughters admitted to the University of Southern California as members of the crew team, even though neither girl had ever rowed before. Prosecutors felt that Giannulli deserved a tougher sentence because he was “the more active participant in the scheme,” while Loughlin “took a less active role, but was nonetheless fully complicit.”

This comes weeks after a source said that Loughlin and Giannulli’s family is working through their prison sentences as a team.

“While the family is going through a difficult time, they are supporting each other,” the insider said. “[They] understand that mistakes were made but that in order to move forward they need to forgive and move forward.”
