Former Feud
John Stamos' accusations about his ex-wife started their feud.
The two men's history is defined by their connection to model Romijn, which led to a very public feud beginning in 2023 after Stamos released his memoir, If You Would Have Told Me.
In the book, he admitted to feeling self-conscious about Romijn's success and hinted that she was unfaithful during their six-year marriage, referring to her as "the Devil."
Romijn was supposedly "blindsided" and "shocked" by the accusations in the memoir, with O'Connell publicly defending his now-wife, saying the book felt like a "betrayal," adding he should have been given a heads-up.
The feud came to an end in November 2025 at comedian Howie Mandel's birthday party. O'Connell had shared a selfie of the pair at the time, alluding to the end of the yearslong beef, with Mandel commenting, "This is what I do. I bring people together. You’re welcome 👏."
Their feud ended at Howie Mandel's birthday party.
"John Stamos was at this party and I was like, 'I got to make a beeline for [him]...I got to go extend my hand,'" O'Connell told Andy Cohen on Radio Andy.
"I said, 'Hey man, how are you? It's so good to see you," he said while "trying to figure out what I can say without upsetting John and starting a beef here."
O'Connell confirmed that it was "100 million percent" a friendly conversation and that they even shared a hug.
Without giving specifics, O'Connell confirmed that the two actors talked for about 20 minutes.
"I made some self-deprecating jokes. I made sure his new wife was there. You want everyone to feel included. I whispered to him when I hugged him like, 'She says you're bigger than me. Do you want her back?' I whispered, 'She says Greeks are better lovers,'" O'Connell continued while laughing.
