‘Full House’ star Bob Saget died in January 2022

On Jan. 9, 2022, comedian and actor Bob Saget was found dead in his hotel room in Orlando, Florida. The 65-year-old was on a stand-up comedy tour and had just performed a two-hour set. His cause of death was determined to be accidental head trauma, likely from slipping and falling in his hotel room. 

A month after Saget’s death, his family, including his wife Kelly Rizzo and his three daughters, filed a lawsuit to block the District Nine Medical Examiner’s Office and Orange County Sheriff John Mina from sharing documents related to the Full House star.

In March 2022, CNN reported that Saget’s family was granted a permanent injunction, preventing the release of the comedian’s death investigation records. “The entire Saget family is grateful that the Judge granted their request for an injunction to preserve Bob’s dignity, as well as their privacy rights, especially after suffering this unexpected and tragic loss,” attorney Brian Bieber shared in a statement. “We are pleased this issue has been resolved, and the healing process can continue to move forward. All of the prayers and well wishes continuously extended to the family are beyond appreciated.”

I am not a victim.”

She continued with a positive message for her followers. “And the best thing I can do for anyone else is to accept and to live in the loving,” Lara wrote. “And to know that whatever life throws, it is my Responsibility to honor it.
