Jodie Sweetin Reveals She Borrowed Money Before Filming Fuller House
Actress Jodie Sweetin discussed her financial difficulties and borrowing money before filming the 2016 reboot of Full House on a recent podcast episode.
Financial Struggles During Production
Sweetin stated she had approximately $190 in her bank account during her first week working on Fuller House. She admitted that nobody on the set knew about her lack of funds at that time. The actress explained she had to borrow money to cover expenses until her initial paycheck arrived.
Shift To Non-Hollywood Work
Due to past struggles with addiction, Sweetin expanded her job search to include positions outside of Hollywood. She noted that working normal jobs helped her pay bills and support her children. Sweetin said she did not have an ego about taking these roles when necessary.
Humility From Hardship
The actress described learning humility while shopping at Target because she could not afford to buy everything she wanted. She emphasized that her children do not pay for themselves and required financial support from her earnings. Sweetin clarified that she was never a materialistic person but faced difficult economic realities.
