Losing a spouse is never easy, especially when they pass away. Bob Saget’s widow, Kelly Rizzo, has been open about her grief since the beginning. However, it seems that she’s starting to move forward. Let’s find out more about her new chapter in life.
After two years of mourning Saget’s unexpected death, Kelly Rizzo has decided to venture into the world of dating. The beloved Full House star tragically passed away at the age of 65 in January 2022 due to accidental head trauma. Initially, Rizzo stated that she wasn’t ready to date even after a year of her husband’s passing. In a public “14.5 month grief check-in” on her Instagram, she shared her thoughts.
One of her fans asked if she had started dating again, and Rizzo candidly replied that she hadn’t. At that time, the idea of dating wasn’t something she could even fathom. The thought of anything serious in the near future was just too complicated emotionally. However, she did express her openness to the possibility of meeting someone and enjoying simple activities like a coffee or a hike. Rizzo acknowledged the loneliness that can come with grief and the importance of companionship.
Now, it seems like the time has finally come for Kelly Rizzo to give love another chance. She recently made her public debut with her new partner, Breckin Meyer. The couple attended the Jam for Janie GRAMMY Awards Viewing Party and posed together on the red carpet. You might recognize Meyer from his roles in popular movies like Clueless and the live-action Garfield films.
Rizzo looked stunning in a body-hugging leopard-print dress paired with black leather boots, while Meyer opted for a more casual look with gray khakis and a denim jacket. The media has confirmed that the two are indeed dating.
While many may be curious about this new development, it’s important to remember that healing is a personal journey, and everyone finds love in their own time. Kelly Rizzo’s willingness to open her heart again is a testament to her strength and resilience.
It’s worth mentioning that Rizzo had previously shared her thoughts on dating. She mentioned that the question of whether she was ready to date again had come up repeatedly. At the time, she wasn’t ready, as the emotions attached to the idea were still too overwhelming. However, she did express her readiness to explore the possibility in the future.
Bob Saget and Kelly Rizzo were married for four years until his passing in 2022. As Rizzo takes this new step in her life, we wish her the best of luck. Moving on after losing a loved one is never easy, but we hope she finds happiness in whatever she pursues.
