Olivia Jade fires back at ‘Gossip Girl’ after show mocks her over parents
Lori Loughlin’s social-media-famous daughter has fired back at the makers of a new HBO “Gossip Girl” reboot for claiming she capitalized on her parents’ college-admissions scandal.
Olivia Jade Giannulli, 21, was skewered on the HBO Max show when one character quipped that the offspring raked in followers because her mom and dad were tossed in the slammer over the infamous bribery scheme.
In the TV scene, a group of girls is chatting about “losing” — with one saying it’s “bad for business.”
“Everything will be fine so long as you win. Olivia Jade gained followers when her mom went to jail,” another character responds.
Olivia Jade — the daughter of the disgraced former “Fuller House” star and fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli — shared the scene on TikTok on Saturday while rubbing her head with a what-the-hell expression on her face.
“No, I didn’t,” she fired back in reference to the “gained followers” comment.

Last year, Loughlin and hubby Mossimo pleaded guilty in federal court to conspiracy charges after being accused of paying $500,000 to get Olivia Jade and her sister, Isabella Rose Giannulli, into the University of Southern California as fake crew team recruits.
Loughlin was sentenced to two months in prison, while Giannulli landed five months behind bars.
