Olivia Jade Giannulli is speaking out.
The 21-year-old influencer found herself caught up in her parents' drama when her mother Lori Loughlin and father Mossimo Giannulli were linked to the college admissions scandal, working to bribe their daughters' way into college.
Since news broke of their involvement, Olivia Jade has been relatively quiet, once explaining publicly that legal requirements kept her from speaking publicly on the matter.

Olivia Jade did not reveal the identity of the "very inspirational woman."
"I think about that quote every day because I think it's so true and it's such a bigger message to our world right now," the social media personality continued. "I think we're all very quick to judge, I think we're all very quick to put people down and I just want people to remember: If your feelings are hurting, or if they're valid to you, they're valid."
