Jodie Sweetin shares candid thoughts on former costar’s motherhood journey

Jodie Sweetin’s Take on Ashley Olsen’s Motherhood

Jodie Sweetin recently spilled the tea about her former “Full House” castmate Ashley Olsen becoming a mom, and her reaction is totally relatable.

During a chat before recording her podcast, Sweetin couldn’t help but laugh about how bizarre it feels seeing someone you knew as a kid now raising their own little one.

Time Warp Feelings

“It’s exactly how the adults on set felt about us,” Sweetin chuckled while chatting backstage.

The 43-year-old mom of two remembers the shocked faces of older cast members when she first showed up with her own kids.

That mind-bending moment of “Wait, you’re old enough to have children?” hits differently when you’ve watched someone grow up on set.

Ashley’s Quiet Journey Into Motherhood

Ashley Olsen, now 38, welcomed her son Otto with hubby Louis Eisner in 2023 without much fanfare.

The notoriously private former child star has kept her personal life under wraps since stepping away from acting.

Sweetin and Olsen shared the screen from 1987 to 1995, creating TV memories that fans still cherish today.

When Your Kids Don’t Care About Your Fame

Sweetin laughed when talking about her daughters Zoie (17) and Beatrix (14), who couldn’t care less about mom’s “Full House” fame.

Even as toddlers, they found it weird seeing their mom on TV.

“They’d probably just say ‘No thanks’ if grandma tried to get them to watch,” Sweetin shared with a knowing smile.

Different Paths For Her Daughters

While chatting about her girls, Sweetin’s face lit up describing their different personalities.

“Bea’s my little performer – she’ll create a show out of thin air if you let her,” she said proudly.

Meanwhile, Zoie has found her groove in sports, showing how kids find their own paths regardless of their parents’ careers.

Stepping Into Dramatic Territory

Sweetin’s latest project marks a major departure from her sitcom roots.

Her upcoming Lifetime movie “Dateless to Dangerous” tackles the heavy topic of online radicalization of young men.

“Not a single joke in the whole thing,” she noted with raised eyebrows, clearly excited about stretching her acting muscles in this intense new role.
