Lori Loughlin has begun her prison sentence, reporting to California's Dublin Federal Correctional Institute on Friday. It hasn't even been a week in there, and already multiple sources are talking to
Us Weeklyabout what a hard time Loughlin is having.
Loughlin, of course, was sentenced to two months in prison, a $150,000 fine, two years of supervised release, and 100 hours of community service for paying $500,000 with her husband to make it appear that their daughters Olivia Jade and Isabella were rowing team recruits in order to guarantee their admission into the University of Southern California. The couple was charged with conspiracy to commit mail fraud, money laundering, and bribery in the college admissions cheating scandal; Loughlin pled guilty to conspiracy to commit wire and mail fraud as part of a plea agreement.
Us spoke to two sources about Loughlin's time behind bars so far. One said that Loughlin was a "wreck."
Another elucidated, saying, "Lori really went into prison strong, she had her faith and the support of her family, but the first few days and road ahead are daunting."
The first source added that in the weeks before Loughlin checked herself in, the actress was very scared. "Lori tried her best to be brave and look at the end result but there was nothing that could dissipate her fears,” the source. “It’s only two months but she’s dreading it. Her mind keeps telling her that something will go horribly wrong in prison or that her stay could be prolonged.”
As for Loughlin's daughters, Olivia and Isabella, they're also struggling seeing their mom go to jail. A source told E! last Friday that "the girls were there saying their goodbyes before Lori headed off. It was a big moment for their family and everyone was very upset. Although the girls knew it was coming and have had time to prepare, it's still devastating to see their mom go. Both Olivia and Bella are very distraught over it. They are grateful it is for only two months but are anxious knowing they will have a very different and hard holiday season this year."
