“It’s definitely shaken things up in their relationship, and not for the better, but they’re going to get through it,” a source told Us Weekly exclusively on May 27. “They’ll do their time, and then decide as a family how to move forward.”

Despite having “their differences throughout the legal battle,” the couple decided to make things work between them for their daughters, Bella, 22, and Olivia Jade, 21.

Shortly after the news of their guilty plea broke, an insider told Us exclusively that the pair’s children were part of the reason they didn’t want to serve their sentences at the same time.

“Even though their daughters are adults, Lori wants one parent to be free to provide emotional support to the girls,” the source said on May 26. “Lori’s concern all along has been Isabella and Olivia Jade.”

In fact, the Summerland alum and her husband opted not to go to trial, because of the possibility their daughters would have to testify.

“Lori and Mossimo felt going to trial would just be reckless,” an insider told Us in May. “It was going to get ugly.”

The source added that “the kids’ lives were also being affected” throughout the process and that both girls were happy to have “the clout of negative press around them gone so they can finally move on.”
