Crime Pays: Lori Loughlin To Earn $150K Per Episode In Return To Television

Oct. 18 2021, Published 11:07 a.m. ET

Ex-con Lori Loughlin is living large after being freed from jail β€” securing $150,000 per episode to return to the small screen, Breaking Celebrity News has exclusively learned.

Loughlin, 57, spent two months in jail in connection with the 2019 college admissions bribery scandal. Hallmark cut ties with the actress following her involvement in the scandal β€” but fans rallied and begged the network for her to reprise her role as Abigail Stanton, the former mayor of Hope Valley, in When Calls the Heart.

After some initial confusion, Hallmark came out with a statement to clarify that Lori is actually joining season 2 of When Hope Calls β€” a spin-off β€” on GAC Family, not When Calls the Heart.

"Hallmark Channel has not cast Lori Loughlin in any current projects, including When Calls the Heart, nor do we have any plans to cast her in the future. She was cast by GAC Family, a wholly separate cable network not affiliated with Hallmark Channel or Crown Media Family Networks," Hallmark said in a statement.

β€œThe producers know she sells,” a source told Breaking Celebrity News. β€œLori’s like a wreck on the highway. Everybody wants to see her return β€” especially because of her tarnished track record.”
