What was once a symbol of redemption for Full House alum Lori Loughlin and her husband Mossimo Giannulli has now become the centre of their high-stakes separation.
According to People, the couple — who are parents to Olivia Jade and Isabella Rose Giannulli — have separated after 28 years of marriage, with their $25m (US$16.5m) L.A. mansion, relisted just months before their split was announced, now at the heart of what could become a financial battle.
The 11,800-square-foot modern farmhouse, purchased in August 2020 for $14.4m (US$9.5m) in the aftermath of the college admissions scandal, was meant to represent a fresh start.
However, its reappearance on the market in February 2025 suggests a calculated move to liquidate significant joint assets should the couple decide to advance divorce proceedings.
“They are living apart and taking a break from their marriage. There are no legal proceedings at this time,” Loughlin’s representative Elizabeth Much told People.

Lori Loughlin and Mossimo Giannulli have separated after nearly 28 years of marriage.
Their L.A. home is currently for sale.
The couple purchased the stunning home in August 2020 for $14.4m (US$9.5m) in the aftermath of the college admissions scandal.
The property’s designer kitchen.
With a potential $10.6m million profit on the line, the sale of this property is poised to become a critical element in the financial negotiations surrounding their split.
The luxe pad sits in the gated Hidden Hills community, which is home to other celebrities including Kim Kardashian, Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, Lil Wayne, and Kevin Durant.
It features maple flooring, high ceilings, and a neutral palette. The roomy living spaces include a formal living room, dining room, and family room.
The kitchen is equipped with marble counters, top-tier appliances, and white oak cabinets — and the primary suite has a fireplace, two baths, and mountain views.
Additional amenities include a gym, a home theatre, and a wine room.
The grounds include a pool, bocce court, fire pit, barbecue area, and covered dining space.
The stakes are further heightened by the couple’s $19.7m (US$13m) vacation home in the exclusive Madison Club of the Coachella Valley.

This 9300-square-foot luxury retreat, complete with a wine cellar, private theatre, and multiple pools, adds another layer of complexity to the division of their assets.
Whether sold or retained by one party, the fate of this desert property will be closely tied to the broader financial settlement.
Loughlin and Giannulli’s history of navigating high-value real estate deals, including the $18.75 million sale of their Bel Air mansion in 2020, underscores their experience in the luxury market.
But this time, the stakes are deeply personal.
The Hidden Hills mansion, once a private refuge, now stands as a financial chess piece in a divorce that has captivated public attention.
Its eventual sale will not only mark the end of their shared chapter but also provide a tangible measure of the financial and emotional toll of their separation.
As the couple’s assets come under the microscope, the Hidden Hills property has transformed from a symbol of renewal into a battleground for one of the year’s most closely watched celebrity divorces.
