He spares no details, including some brutal confessions about his ex-wife Romijn.
“It wasn’t the way I was raised.
My dad was like, ‘Don’t talk about politics.
Don’t talk about religion.
Be Dean Martin.'”
Stamos ignored his father’s advice and mined some deep topics.
Many of his revelations were jaw-dropping, especially those he devoted to the Romijn years.
He toldPeople: “My first marriage was shattering to me.
I was shattered for way too long, too.”
Stamos claims in his memoir (viaET) that Laughlin teased him at the show for his obvious infatuation.
After swapping digits at the show’s after-party, Stamos and Ramijn went on their first date to Disneyland.
That Disney date was the start of what appeared to be a magical relationship that eventually led to marriage.
But what about his on-screen spouse, Laughlin?
The decision was so spur-of-the-moment that he didn’t even have a diamond to seal the deal.
She gets a cigar band around her finger."
The bride was beautiful in Badgley Mischka, and the couple seemed blissfully happy.
The “Ugly Betty” star even began hyphenating her last name to Romijn-Stamos.
They quietly separated in 2003, although they continued to appear together for publicity purposes.
While Stamos did later go on to perform on Broadway and returned to television on “E.R.”
As Romijn’s career gained momentum, the two began to drift apart.
He writes, “We’re trying new things and growing, but not together.”
It was just the perception that people took, and maybe they weren’t wrong.
She was doing great at that time and I wasn’t."
She makes a trip to the store seem clandestine."
That’s a pretty strong statement and one that has been often quoted since the release of his book.
He also acknowledged that he was not blameless in the implosion of his marriage.
“You start thinking, it’s like, ‘Oh, she wasn’t the Devil.
Maybe I was as much to blame as her.'”
That’s what I hope people take away from it."
For her part, Romijn has refused to publicly comment on her ex’s very public diss.
“I’m heartbroken and feel like a failure.
I thought I’d be the dad of three kids by now and grow old with Rebecca.
Romijn shared that sentiment.
“But it’s possible for you to’t judge until you know the situation,” he added.
And I hated myself for that.
It was a bad, bad thing.
“I derailed over the years.
I never really got back on track,” he explained.

Together, they have twin daughters, Charlie and Dolly.
About two years after they began dating, McHugh discovered that she was pregnant.
In an interview withPeople, Stamos said: “The [pregnancy] happened.
Their son, Billy, arrived just two months later, making their family complete.
I guess I was waiting for the perfect wife, which I have.”
Well, make that two: his ex-wife, Rebecca Romijn, and her husband, Jerry O’Connell.
That’s not something that really interests us.”
Apparently, their twin daughters, Charlie and Dolly, feel differently.
The girls caught wind of the name-calling and insults and O’Connell told Cohen that they have questions.
What are your thoughts?'"
So you don’t want to feed that fire."
A lot of things about him that I miss.
But yeah, it’s tricky.
It’s a very hard decision to come to when you decide to end a marriage.
It was heartbreaking."
