Lori Loughlin, 61, stuns with youthful look at 'When Calls the Heart' event

A familiar face is back in Hope Valley.

Lori Loughlin stunned in a white strapless gown during the “When Calls the Heart” and “Hope Valley: 1874” celebration Wednesday in West Hollywood, Calif.

The actress, 61, hit the blue carpet at The Sun Rose Hotel, pairing her dazzling dress with silver heels and matching clutch.

Loughlin also rocked a bronzed glow, silver earrings and wore her hair back in a glamorous ponytail.

Fans were overjoyed by Loughlin’s attendance at the Hallmark panel as she starred as Abigail Stanton on “When Calls the Heart” from its 2014 debut until 2019.

The “Full House” alum was written out in Season 6 following the college admissions scandal, in which she went to jail for conspiring to pay a half-million-dollar bribe to get her daughters into the University of Southern California as fake rowing recruits.

However, Loughlin is returning to the iconic role in the upcoming 14th season.

“Since the series’ debut in 2014, the character of Abigail Stanton was a fan favorite and beloved by the Hearties,” Hallmark Media’s head of programming, Michelle Vicary, told People in December. “At its core the Hallmark brand is about hope, positivity and connection, which is also the central theme of ‘When Calls the Heart.’ We felt that season 14 was the right time to continue Abigail’s story with her return to this beloved series.”

Loughlin has kept a low profile in recent years, starring in a few projects, including Prime Video’s cop drama “On Call,” “Blue Bloods,” “Curb Your Enthusiasm” and the Christmas rom-com, “Fall into Winter.”

Despite largely staying out of the spotlight, the “Fuller House” star attended the Women’s Cancer Research Fund’s “Unforgettable Evening” gala on March 11.

Loughlin’s youthful appearance once again got plenty of attention on her makeup artist Lyndsay Zavitz’s Instagram post.

One person wrote: “Wow! She looks amazing! What’s her secret?”

“Wow perfection!!!!” another fan added, while a third wrote, “Amazing! She looks so youthful wow 😍.”

Loughlin’s outings come on the heels of her split from ex Mossimo Giannulli, after nearly 28 years of marriage, in October 2025.

A source told Us Weekly in January that the Hallmark star and fashion designer, 62, who share daughters Olivia Jade, 26, and Isabella, 27, were never able to repair their marriage after the admissions scandal.

“The school scandal was a turning point, and they never really connected or recovered their relationship after that,” the source said, adding that the actress felt her husband “got her involved” in the situation.

“She didn’t fully blame him, but he spearheaded it,” the source also shared, noting that Loughlin “never fully forgave him and never fully got over it.”
