Olivia Jade Honors Lori Loughlin On Mother’s Day: ‘The Most Special Person To Me’
Olivia Jade Giannuli took to Instagram Sunday to honor her mother, Lori Loughlin, on Mother’s Day with two throwback pictures of her as a baby.
“Happy Mother’s Day to all the mamas out there,” Olivia wrote. “Thank you God for mine! You are my best friend and have held my hand every day for 20 years making it look like motherhood is an easy job.”
She continued, saying Loughlin was “one of a kind” and that she could not wait to give her all the love in the world “today and forever.”
“Thank you for being you. You are the most special person to me. I am so blessed to be your daughter and so proud to call you mom,” Olivia added, throwing a red heart emoji at the end.
The first photo in the set showed Olivia as a baby, standing in mom Lori’s lap. Lori sported a bob cut and she lovingly smiled for the camera. The second photo showed an older update of the YouTube star as a toddler, side by side with Loughlin.
Older sister Isabella Rose also paid tribute to Loughlin with a similar Instagram post, using baby photos featuring her mother.
“The strength mothers’ have is unparalleled, I think they might be the closest thing we have to superheroes,” Isabella wrote. “Happy Mother’s Day Mama, I love you. I’m so proud to be your daughter today & everyday.”
Olivia and Isabella’s loving Mother’s Day tributes come a month after federal prosecutors released staged rowing photos that they claimed Loughlin and her husband, Mossimo Giannulli, supplied to get their daughters into the University of Southern California. The photos were given to Rick Singer, the mastermind behind the entire admissions scheme.
On March 12, 2019, the United States attorney’s office in Massachusetts indicted Loughlin and Giannulli, along with actress Felicity Huffman, as part of an investigation called Operation Varsity Blues. Almost 50 other parents, admissions counselors, exam proctors, and coaches were accused of crimes including paying for boosted SAT scores and lying about their students’ athletic skills in order to get them into top-notch universities such as USC, Stanford, Yale, and Georgetown.
The Inquisitr previously reported that Olivia Jade has been anxious about the impending trial involving her parents, leaning on her boyfriend, Jackson Guthy for support. An inside source close to Olivia and her family told Us Weekly that she feels “uncertain” about the future and worries what else prosecutors will do to incriminate her family.
The Giannulli sisters have been quarantining in a separate residence from their parents, who stayed behind in their Bel Air mansion.
