Lori Loughlin is set to reprise her role of Abigail Stanton from Hallmark Channel’s “When Calls the Heart” for the Season 2 premiere of spinoff series “When Hope Calls.” It will mark her first TV role since being released from prison in December 2020 for her role in the college admissions bribery scandal.
The part of Abigail (which you can see Loughlin in character as in the photo above) is one that Loughlin originally lost at Hallmark Channel after news of her involvement in the scandal, along with her husband Mossimo Giannulli, broke in 2019. Loughlin was also fired from Netflix’s “Full House” revival, “Fuller House.”
