He said, she said, he said again. John Stamos is pushing back on recent comments his ex Teri Copley made, claiming she and the “Full House” alum were actually very much broken up when he found her in bed with Tony Danza.
In his new memoir, “If You Would Have Told Me,” Stamos told a wild story on how he allegedly walked in on his then-girlfriend Copley with Danza.
“I call her from the road, but the girl who breathlessly picked up the phone after one ring is now giving me busy signals and dial tones,” Stamos, 60, wrote. “When I get home, I call her throughout the day and into the evening. No response. Strange. We’ve gone from talking on the phone every few hours to silence.”
When he began to get concerned, he drove over to her house. When he arrived, he noticed “no lights on” and “no movement behind the windows.”
“A black 1957 Porsche 356 Speedster, vintage convertible. Strange. I shuffle to the car with my stomach sinking and take a quick look inside,” Stamos wrote. “There’s a hairbrush, keys, boxing gloves, and a half-unrolled poster of my girlfriend, naked, barely covered by a white sheet. Half of her butt is showing. I’ve never seen this poster before.”
“The blinds are closed, but the door is slightly open. I take a peek inside and see four feet protruding from the shabby-chic, floral-print duvet that once kept me warm,” he continued. “My Tiny Dancer is in bed with Mr. Porsche Speedster. They are sleeping. I can’t tell who he is, but I recognize Teri’s a– barely covered by the sheets. It looks like her new poster.”
Copley, 62, responded to Stamos’ allegations to People — denying that they were even together at the time.
“I wondered, ‘What was John doing there?’ because we had broken up,” she told the outlet on Monday. “He just looked at me and shook his head and walked away.”
The “Fuller House” alum got wind of her new comments, and spoke out about the incident again. This time, during an interview on “The Howard Stern Show.”
“She came out yesterday or I think the day before and said we were broken up. And I don’t think she told me that,” he said on Tuesday’s episode.
He added: “I was busted up, man.”
The actor went on to note he really was “so brokenhearted” over it and decided to include his version of the story in his memoir to “highlight some of the relatable issues” from his life.
“People thought like, who’s going to cheat on Stamos? Well, it’s happened more than once,” Stamos wrote. “The real reason why I put that story in there was to, well, to be relatable, but also the end of the story was this: I remember walking in and I see them, and was like, ‘I’m gonna kick this guy’s ass.’ Then I kind of saw his abs and I’m like, ‘I’m gonna run.’”
The “Who’s the Boss?” alum, 72, for his part, has yet to react to the back and forth.
