John Stamos’ wife says he ‘went through everyone else’ before they got married

Caitlin McHugh knows she married a Hollywood heartthrob.

John Stamos’ wife joked about the “Full House” actor’s romantic history in an interview with Fox News Digital published Tuesday.

“We spend a lot of time together. There’s good communication and stuff,” McHugh, 38, said of the couple’s marriage.

“But really,” she added, “I wonder if it’s just that he went through everyone else already.”

McHugh said through laughs, “I was the last one.”

The actress, writer and model married Stamos, 61, in February 2018, seven years after they met on the set of “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.”

They have a son, Billy, who was born in April 2018.

Before McHugh, Stamos dated stars including Teri Copley, Paula Abdul and Denise Richards. He was married to Rebecca Romijn from 1998 to 2004.

Stamos shared details about his past relationships in his 2023 memoir “If You Would Have Told Me,” including when Copley, 63, allegedly cheated on him with Tony Danza.

The “General Hospital” star claimed he caught Copley in bed with Danza, 73, about a year into their relationship in the ’80s.

However, Copley claimed she didn’t cheat on Stamos. “I wondered, ‘What was John doing there?’ because we had broken up,” she told People. “He just looked at me and shook his head and walked away.”

Stamos also wrote in his book that he “hated” Romijn, 52, after their divorce.

“In my mind back then, she was the devil, and I just hated her,” he told People of the “X-Men” actress, who is now married to Jerry O’Connell.

“I couldn’t believe how much I hated her, and it ruined my life … I talk about it [in the book], because [in Alcoholics Anonymous,] the fourth step is you lay out all your grievances, everything that people did to you. I go like, ‘None,’” Stamos added.

Stamos has credited McHugh with helping change his life, including encouraging him to get sober.

“I wasn’t deserving of it yet, I think. But six years ago, I sobered up and I became a better person. And when Caitlin came around, I recognized it immediately. I said, ‘I have to be good for that, to make it work,’” he told People in 2021.

In her Fox News interview, McHugh said that her son “is a ham bone and a half, just like his dad.”

“He just loves making other kids laugh. He’s got all these little girls with crushes on him and stuff,” she added about the 6-year-old. “I mean, he can’t help it. It’s just who he is.”
