Fans may think Stamos and Loughlin’s friendship began when she joined Full House in 1988, but their bond actually goes back even further.
“We were friends,” he told HuffPost Live in 2013. “We were on a soap together.”
In fact, the ER alum says the two even went on a date to Disneyland when they were in their late teens. However, no romance was born. Loughlin married her first husband Michael Burns in 1989, their divorce was finalized in 1996, and she married Giannulli the following year. Stamos married Rebecca Romijn in 1998.
Mr Stamos, who married Caitlin McHugh in 2018, 13 years after his divorce from Romijn was finalized, continued: “Sometimes our timing was off.” “In hindsight, I’m not disrespectful to her family or her husband. I think she may have been the one who ran away.”
Stamos is happily married to Caitlin, the mother of his 7-year-old son Billy, but Loughlin continues to hold a place in his heart as a friend. They’re even neighbors, and followers have been able to catch glimpses of their bond both on the red carpet and on social media in recent years.
“Lori Loughlin remains a dear friend to this day,” Stamos wrote in her 2023 memoir, If You Would Have Told Me. “We have weathered the storm together and stood by each other despite life’s challenges.”
