The comedian’s cause of death is still under investigation after his funeral
Bob Saget’s cause of death is still under investigation. The actor was discovered dead in his hotel room at the Ritz-Carlton in Orlando, Florida on Jan. 9. His autopsy is complete, but the cause of death remains unknown.
“The cause and manner of death are pending further studies and investigation which may take up to 10-12 weeks to complete,” Orange and Osceola Counties’ chief medical examiner Joshua Stephany shared with Yahoo.
All evidence so far indicates that the actor died peacefully in his sleep after performing a two-hour-long stand-up show. Saget posted a message on Instagram celebrating the show just hours before he died.
“Okay, I loved tonight’s show @pontevedra_concerthall in Jacksonville. Really nice audience. Lots of positivity,” Saget captioned a photo of himself smiling into the camera with a stage and a guitar behind him. “Happened last night in Orlando last night at the Hard Rock Live too. Very appreciative and fun audiences.”
After thanking his opening act, the comedian shared, “I had no idea I did a two hour set tonight. I’m back in comedy like I was when I was 26. I guess I’m finding my new voice and loving every moment of it.”
He closed out the joyful caption with, “Goin’ everywhere until I get the special shot. And then probably keep going cause I’m addicted to this s***. Peace out. ✌️”
