Disgraced influencer Olivia Jade Gianulli recently returned to Instagram amid the college admissions scandal with a big ‘eff you’ post to her critics.

The former USC student shared a pic of her flipping the bird at the camera and wrote, “@dailymail@starmagazine @people @perezhilton@everyothermediaoutlet #close#source #says”

The post caused quite some controversy when it was shared last month, not just with Instagram punters but also with her family’s legal team.
Some top ranking lawyers are reportedly fighting tooth and nail to save Lori Loughlin and Mossimo Giannulli from prison time and feared that the post would not help their cause.
“Her lawyers begged her not to post anything,” a source told Us Weekly. “Prosecutors are going to question her about it and show everything to the jury.”
Despite her previous post being a HBD tribute to her mother, insiders claim that Olivia’s relationship with the Full House actress is v. strained.
“Things aren’t fully healed between them,” an insider told the publication.
The 19-year-old is said to be worried that she won’t be able to rebuild her brand following the scandal and it’s left her “resentful,” says the source.
After the scandal broke, Olivia lost several lucrative partnerships with popular brands including Sephora.
The famous family has been facing public scrutiny since Loughlin and husband Giannulli’s arrest in March for allegedly paying $500,000 in bribes to get their daughters into the University of Southern California.
They are facing up to 40 years in prison for their alleged involvement in the scam.
