PDA

View Full Version : Stephanie Tanner hit rock bottom

Former Full House actress Jodie Sweetin has made startling admission: she once had a daily methamphetamine habit.

The problems began when Full House ended its run in 1995, the actress told Good Morning America on Wednesday. "There is a certain sense of loss when a series ends. It is kind of hard to figure out who you are when you've lost your job at age 13, when that was basically how you identified yourself," says Sweetin, 24, who played Stephanie Tanner on the series.

Seeking a "normal" life, Sweetin attended high school and college, and was married by age 20 – to a Los Angeles policeman. But two years ago, feeling bored and being unemployed, she says she began experimenting with drugs and got hooked on meth.

After a three-day "lost" weekend, reportedly followed by an intervention staged by her former Full House costars Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, John Stamos and Bob Saget, Sweetin checked herself in to the Promises rehab facility for six weeks of intense treatment.

Sweetin now owns up to "living a total double life," she tells GMA. "I was married to a police officer – we are going through a divorce right now – he had no idea."

As for the future? "I want to make movies, TV series, wherever the career takes me," she says. "I really hope this isn't the last people hear of me. In fact, I would like to make this a footnote in my career, not the end."

Read about that in Dose, what is it with the Full House gang? The only one that's made it until now without a media frenzy/mishap/questionable choice at some point has been Lori Laughlin (and that irritating Kimmy kid).

Publicity stunt, no one knew if she was still alive til now.

Though she filled out quite well! I hope she does an Alicia Milano.

Could be worse, could be the kids from "Diff'rent Strokes". Todd Bridges has turned himself around, but Dano Plato is, well, dead :(. Seriously, actors ending up robbing stores always leaves me with a big "WTF" on my forehead.

Full House was even milder than Diff'rent Strokes (though I haven't seen much of the latter), so I find it a bit more surprising.

Oh man would "Full House" would have been really funny if they let the REAL Bob Saget loose! :lol:

That's a tragic fate most child actors without proper guidance end up in. Very rarely do you ever hear about child actors going onto a successful career in later years. Jodie Foster and to some extent, Drew Barrymore are the only two that come to mind. All others have fallen into obscurity only to pop up on the news or doing Christian evangelism program like Kirk Cameron :D

She should have followed in her older sisters footsteps and married a NHL player.
