Exclusive
Lori Loughlin and Mossimo Giannulli he gave up the super exclusive Bel-Air Country Club … this after a war broke out over the decision to suspend but then reinstate the couple after they completed their sentence … sources tell TMZ.
Our sources say the club’s Board of Directors voted unanimously to suspend Lori and Mossimo, but the suspension is lifted when they serve their terms.
The decision did not sit well with some of the members. Old president Michael Gallagher shot a biting letter to the board, obtained by TMZ, in which it says … “This unprecedented decision by the board to allow criminals to continue as members causes irreparable damage to the reputation of the Club and its members.”
Gallagher continues … “BACC is a gentlemen’s and ladies’ club. Gentlemen are not criminals, and criminals are not gentlemen. You cannot be a member of good standing and guilty of a crime at the same time, it is a not logical. “
And it didn’t end … “The action of the board, taken on behalf of the Club membership, now establishes our Club as a place of refuge and comfort for known criminals … This matter is already well known in the world of golf, nationally and internationally, and our Club has become a laughingstock. “
Our sources say that membership was deeply divided. Some members supported Lori and Mossimo, while others loved them forever.
We are told that Lori and Mossimo did not want to be in the middle of a war between the members, so they voluntarily resigned. We are told that Mossimo joined because she is an avid golf player, Lori also plays golf, but not as much. As we report, Lori arranged a plea agreement and he will serve 2 months in prison and Mossimo will serve 5 months.
Which is also interesting … Rick Singer, the mastermind in the college admission scandal, was also known to many and many rich parents on the west side of Los Angeles. We don’t know if other club members knew about or used Singer, but at least it would be incredibly surprising if Lori and Mossimo were the only members who were privy to Singer’s exploits.
Gallagher said in his letter that he was resigning. We don’t know if he changed his mind after Lori and Mossimo resigned.
We contacted Lori, Mossimo and Michael Gallagher … so far, we have received no news.
