Lori Loughlin Reflects on Bob Saget’s “Kind Heart and Quick Wit”

As family, friends and fans mourn the loss of Bob Saget, his Full House co-star Lori Loughlin is opening up about her long-term friendship with the comedian.
 
The 57-year-old actress—who co-starred alongside the comedian in both Full House and Fuller House—said in a statement to E! News, “Words cannot begin to express how devastated I am. Bob was more than my friend; he was my family. I will miss his kind heart and quick wit. Thank you for a lifetime of wonderful memories and laughter. I love you, Bobby.”
 
On Jan. 9, the Orange County Sheriff’s Office confirmed Saget was found dead inside a hotel room at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Orlando, Fla. He was 65 years old. At this time, the cause of death is unknown.
 
The two actors first starred together in the popular family-friendly sitcom—as Danny Tanner and Rebecca Donaldson Katsopolis, respectively—during the show’s original run from 1987 to 1995. More than two decades later, the pair reprised their roles for the Netflix reboot, Fuller House, starting in 2016, with the series ending in June 2020.
