Just over a week into her two month prison sentence for her role in the college admissions scandal, former “Fuller House” star Lori Loughlin is reportedly “struggling,” with a source saying that she “misses her family and her comfortable life.”

“Lori is trying to keep her head low and just get through this ordeal,” a source told In Touch Magazine, adding that while “she’s been able to make calls and send emails, all monitored … every second feels like a lifetime in there.”

Loughlin was sentenced to two months in prison for paying $500,000 in bribe money to have her two daughters admitted to the University of Southern California as members of the crew team, even though neither girl had ever rowed before. During her sentencing back in August, Loughlin broke down in tears as she addressed the judge.

“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 continued. “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.”

Though Loughlin didn’t need to start her sentence until November 19, she decided to surrender herself early on October 30 to the Federal Corrections Institution in Dublin, California in the hopes of being out by Christmas. Another source said that before turning herself in, Loughlin “drove from the safety of her Hidden Hills home to the prison and reminisced of past family holidays and neighborhood get-togethers, but it only made it worse for her.”

“Lori is living a real-life nightmare. Lori is hating life inside prison,” the first source concluded. “Her first days there were dreadful.”
