Influencer Olivia Jade hits the beach in Miami. She is Aunt Becky's mini-me
Slide aside, Southern California. Miami has a new fan: Olivia Jade. The infuencer, the daughter of actress Lori Loughlin and designer Mossimo Giannulli, is in the 305 and clearly enjoying herself. On Wednesday, the 25-year-old, who goes by her first and middle name, hit the beach, showing off a few snaps to her 1.2 million Instagram followers. 'It's a beautiful day!' said the post. In another carousel, the beauty vlogger is seen lounging with a cup of coffee, and in another pic, smiling wearing a pair of shades and a bikini on the sand. The sign in the background puts her at the public beach in Surfside. Even the most casual observer can't ignore the young woman's striking resemblance to Loughlin, who starred as Becky in 'Full House' (and even before that as Jody on vintage soap 'The Edge of Night'). It's unclear why the YouTuber is in town beside the obvious reason (hello, perfect weather). It's also unclear who is on the other side of the camera because some of her photos don't appear to be selfies. Rumored boyfriend, Aussie actor Jacob Elordi, perhaps? He wasn't in paparazzi photos picked up by the gossip rags. Whatever the reason, it's clear that Giannulli has moved on from the college admissions scandal that rocked the headlines a year before COVID hit. Loughlin, 60, and Giannulli, 61, admitted to paying $500,000 to a fixer to help Olivia and her older sister Bella get into USC by falsely portraying their daughters as standout rowers, even going as far as to stage photos. Neither girl was charged but Loughlin was sentenced to two months after pleading guilty to a federal charge of conspiracy to commit wire and mail fraud. The TV star was also fined $150,000 and required to complete 100 hours of community service. Giannulli served a five month sentence. There was no grudge about what her folks did, the former USC student told the ladies on 'Red Table Talk' in late 2020. Ignorance really was bliss. 'To be honest, I wasn't angry and I think it's because I didn't have a good understanding of what just happened,' Olivia said at the time. 'I walked around my whole 20 years of life not realizing, 'You have insane privilege.''

Bikini-clad Olivia Jade looks just like controversial mum Lori Loughlin during Miami holiday
Olivia Jade Giannulli's beach day has fans doing a double take. Lori Loughlin's 25-year-old daughter looked just like the Full House star while soaking up the sun in Miami Beach on Wednesday. The influencer was photographed sporting a printed blue bikini while strolling in the shallows. She accessorised the swimsuit with a gold necklace and bracelet, leaving her brunette locks down in loose waves. Giannulli, who was the spitting image of her actress mum, ended her beach day by covering up her bathing suit with a white sundress. She completed her look with a Nike baseball cap and black sandals. The Dancing With the Stars star ditched her black sunglasses and rocked the same swimwear in a selfie shared via Instagram Stories that same day. She documented the 'beautiful' Florida day with an Instagram slideshow Wednesday. In the outdoor snaps, Giannulli posed in a blue halter-style bathing suit top, white sweatpants and a pair of bright sneakers. Her boyfriend, Jacob Elordi, did not appear to be present for the sunny getaway. The couple have been romantically linked on and off since late 2021, with the duo briefly splitting the following year but reconciling by 2023. While the actor, 27, and Giannulli have yet to publicly comment on their romance, the Euphoria star and the YouTuber have been caught on camera cuddling up on multiple occasions. Olivia Jade is Loughlin and husband Mossimo Giannulli's younger child, with the couple also sharing 26-year-old daughter Isabella Rose. Both were involved in the 2019 college admissions scandal that got the Fuller House star jail time and a hefty fine, which Olivia Jade addressed on a Red Table Talk interview in 2020. She apologised for her 'insane privilege' in the controversial interview, eventually returning to YouTube vlogging in 2021 after a year-long hiatus. 'I really found a drive and a work ethic that I think I've had since I was young, but maybe I haven't been able to execute in the last few years,' she later told Page Six while competing on Season 30 of Dancing With the Stars with Val Chmerkovskiy. 'Hard work really does pay off … when you really give something your all and that joy you genuinely feel from doing so, there's nothing really like it. It's so rewarding.'
