Jerry O’Connell and Rebecca Romijn did not get warning from John Stamos before he wrote about them in his new memoir.
The Sliders alum, 49, said his wife, 50, was blindsided and not given a heads up that they would appear in the Full House star’s new memoir, which is ironically titled If You Would Have Told Me.
O’Connell made an appearance on Access Hollywood on Monday and told hosts Mario Lopez and Kit Hoover that he and his wife found out about the book after it was already released.
‘We don’t get any warning,’ he said. ‘We find out just like anyone else.’
The Stand By Me actor then declined to comment on whether or not his wife was shocked by the comments Stamos, 60, made about their divorce in his book — which was released following O’Connell’s interview on October 24.

‘It’s not really my place to say,’ he said in response to the question. ‘I would rather my wife talk about that. My wife and I are getting along so well today.’
Before tying the knot with O’Connell, Romijn was previously married to Stamos from 1998 to 2005.
In his new memoir, he spoke candidly about his ‘failed’ first marriage with the former model.
During promotions for the book, Stamos also revealed that he was ‘shattered’ after they ended their seven-year marriage and said he ‘hated her’ during their divorce.
In a recent interview with People, the General Hospital vet confessed: ‘My first marriage was shattering to me. I was shattered for way too long, too.
‘I mean, a year, okay, good,’ he continued. ‘But it went on [for] years and years.’
Stamos also admitted that he had pure hatred for her during their early 2000s divorce.
‘In my mind back then, she was the Devil, and I just hated her,’ he said. ‘I couldn’t believe how much I hated her, and it ruined my life.’

He said following their split, he relied heavily on alcohol as a coping mechanism and only worked through his resentments towards her after going through the steps in AA.
He also revealed that he has kept a special gift that his ex-wife had given him while they were together.
Two years after their separation, Romijn went on to marry O’Connell.
In Stamos’ bombshell memoir, he opens up about his alcoholism and going to rehab. He also talked about finding out his late friend and Full House costar, Bob Saget, had passed away.
He also spoke about being sexually assaulted and revealed he had multiple rhinoplasties early in his career.
