Bob Saget, 61, is engaged to girlfriend Kelly Rizzo, 38

Congrats are in order for Full House star Bob Saget. He revealed that he popped the question to his much-younger girlfriend, Kelly Rizzo, via Instagram on Wednesday, Nov. 8, just days after his former co-star John Stamos revealed he’s getting married too.

“Love the people in this picture. The most loving and legendary @George_Shapiro, Katie Killean & of course my gal Kelly. In case you’re wondering, we were celebrating our engagement— and I know George and I will be very happy together!” Bob, 61, wrote alongside a group photo where Bob can be seen holding Kelly’s hand.

Kelly, 38, then showed off her bling on the social media platform. “Who needs pearls??? Enjoying my favorite food with my new favorite accessory💍,” she wrote. What a stunning ring!

In a previous exclusive interview with Closer Weekly, Bob opened up about finding happiness again with his Kelly. From Full House to America’s Funniest Home Videos, Bob made millions of people laugh for decades. But offscreen, he struggled through losing two sisters and divorcing the mum of his three beloved daughters, Sherri Kramer, after 15 years of marriage.

“I didn’t think I’d have a relationship again,” Bob revealed to Closer. “I was kind of in that ‘just work, make people happy and take care of your kids until they’re 90’ mindset.”

“My daughters love her!” he said of Kelly, who moved from Chicago to LA to be with him. “She’s a remarkable person, and she’s really talented. She’s got her own website and streaming series called Eat Travel Rock.”

Kelly has been by his side at different events since they started dating (they met in 2015) — and Bob is clearly happier with her there for him! “To be busy and do things you’re passionate about is great,” he says. “I’m happier today, and I’m the youngest 61-year-old I know!”
