Olivia Jade Giannulli is trying to return to a YouTube career.
The 21-year-old daughter – whose parents Lori Loughlin and Mossimo Giannulli pleaded guilty to their involvement in the college admissions scandal – returned to the video content platform on Thursday with a new message to her followers.
“It’s so crazy! Welcome back to my YouTube channel,” Jade begins. “I’m really excited because of course I did not film for a very long time and I’m just thankful I’m back on YouTube and I’m very excited that you guys can watch this video.”
“I wanted to film this little intro part just because I did not want to just start the vlog and I did not address anything,” she explained. “Obviously my ‘Red Table Talk’ interview took place, and I think that if you have any questions for me, or if you have anything to say or if you want, ‘Why are you back?’ “I’m going to watch that interview. I think I made a similar statement about how I feel there.”
