Netflix's Fuller House explains the absence of Aunty Becky after Lori Loughlin pleads guilty

Aunt Becky playing Lori Loughlin did not appear in the latter half of the fifth and the final season of the Netflix Original Fuller House. On Tuesday, the video-on-demand platform dropped the final episodes of the highly popular show which also revealed the whereabouts of Aunt Becky. In the episode titled 'Be Yourself, Free Yourself', Becky's husband, Uncle Jesse, played by John Stamos, mentioned his wife for the very first time since Lori Loughlin was arrested last year in march for her involvement in the college admission scandal.

After trying to turn a playdate into a sting operation to figure out who bit his beloved daughter Pamela, Jesse sought help from his niece D.J. Tanner, played by Candace Cameron Bure for advice. In the episode, D.J. asks Jesse, "You don't think you should run this by Aunt Becky first?", while Uncle Jesse responds saying, "Becky is in Nebraska helping out her mother. I don't want to bother her with a tiny little thing like this". Furthermore, D.J. concludes saying "Right, because she'd tell you not to do what you're about to do".
