Losing a spouse is an incredibly challenging experience, especially when it happens unexpectedly. The grief and sadness that follows can be overwhelming. However, Kelly Rizzo, who was married to beloved “Full House” star Bob Saget, has shown remarkable strength in coping with her loss.
After two years of mourning, Rizzo is ready to start a new chapter in her life, dating. The world was surprised in January 2022 when Saget passed away at the age of 65 from complications from accidental head trauma. Since then, Rizzo has been open about her grief, but now she feels ready to move on.
At first, Rizzo found the idea of dating daunting, admitting: “The thought of anything serious in the near future was just too complicated emotionally”. But she also recognized the importance of companionship and expressed interest in simple outings, like grabbing coffee or going for a hike.
Recently, Kelly Rizzo made her first public appearance with her new partner Breckin Meyer at the Jam for Janie GRAMMY Awards Viewing Party, where they posed together on the red carpet. Meyer, known for his roles in films such as Clueless and the live-action Garfield series, complemented Rizzo, who dazzled in a bodycon leopard print dress while he opted for a casual look in gray khakis and a denim jacket. Their relationship was confirmed by the media.
Healing is a personal journey and everyone finds love at their own time. Rizzo’s decision to open her heart again underscores her resilience and strength.
Although she had previously stated that she was not ready to date because of the emotional strain involved, she now feels more prepared to explore this new possibility.
As we celebrate this new chapter in Kelly Rizzo’s life, it’s also important to remember the love she shared with Bob Saget. They were married for four years before he passed away in 2022. Moving on after such a difficult loss is never easy, but we wish her all the best on her path to happiness.
