College admissions scandal: Lawyers for Lori Loughlin and others due in court

Candace Cameron Bure admits she has no idea how "Fuller House" will handle Lori Loughlin's departure.
The 54-year-old actress was reportedly cut from the Netflix "Full House" spinoff after her alleged involvement with the college admissions scam was revealed in March.

"I've been a big crybaby the whole week — like every day," she confessed of her first week of filming Season 5. "We've had such an amazing run on 'Fuller House' and I work with my best friends every day, so knowing this our last season is quite bittersweet. We're so happy that we get to do a whole other season, but knowing it's our last, we’re savoring every moment of it. It's emotionally really hard because I love what I do and I love the people I work with."
