Lori Loughlin is getting her passport back
Aunt Becky is free to travel abroad.
A federal judge in Massachusetts has granted Lori Loughlin’s request that her passport be returned now that she’s done her time for paying $500,000 in bribes to get her daughters into college.
Lawyers for the former “Full House” star had filed court documents on Wednesday asking for the passport back.
The filing noted that Loughlin, 56, served her two-month sentence and paid the court-imposed $150,000 fine.
The government didn’t object to Loughlin’s request and US District Judge Nathaniel M. Gorton granted her lawyers’ motion on Friday, court records show.
The actress surrendered the travel document to US Pretrial Services in March 2019 after she and a dozen other well-heeled parents were busted in a widespread college admissions scheme.
She and hubby Mossimo Giannulli pleaded guilty to their role in the sweeping scandal, admitting that they forked over $500,000 in bribes to a college fixer to get their girls, Isabella Rose, 20, and Olivia Jade, 21, into the University of Southern California.
Loughlin, who played Aunt Becky on the hit family sitcom, was released from prison on Dec. 28.
Giannulli, 57, who was sentenced to five months, is still behind bars.
