Inside Bob Saget's Dating History
If you grew up in the '90s, you likely watched a lot of "Full House." The popular family sitcom ran from 1987 to 1995, according to IMDb. Bob Saget played everyone's favorite father, Danny Tanner, throughout the show's run on television. Tanner was the perfect television father. He was loving, attentive, and delivered some of the most wholesome dad talks to hit the airwaves (per Romper). He was the quintessential father figure.
Saget's wholesome reputation as Danny Tanner proved he was a good actor. If you grew up with Saget as Tanner and later discovered Saget's raunchy standup, you were probably shocked. The TV dad has a dirty side to him, per Inquisitr, but fans love it.
If you only know Saget as Danny Tanner, the loyal and loving father figure, you may be surprised by his real-life dating history. However, just listening to his standup comedy performances, his interest in women isn't as surprising. Here is a look at TV's favorite dad's dating history.
Bob married his high school sweetheart
During his time on "Full House," Bob Saget was married to a woman named Sherri Kramer. The pair were high school sweethearts, having begun their relationship when Kramer was just 17 years old (per Superb Hub). Kramer had a successful career of her own. She graduated from law school and was appointed to the California Bar in 1981. While practicing law, she was also able to work with her husband in some of his creative endeavors. She is credited as a screenwriter for "Bob Saget: In The Dream State," according to IMDb.
Kramer and Saget share three daughters (via Closer Weekly). Their eldest is named Aubrey, who is a successful artist. Their middle child is Lara, who has a traveling art exhibit she shares with Aubrey. The youngest of the Saget troop is Jennifer, who lives her life outside of the spotlight.
Saget and Kramer would eventually divorce in 1997 after 15 years of marriage.
He remarried in 2018
While Bob Saget dated around after separating from Sherri Kramer in the '90s, he didn't remarry until 2018. He didn't think he would ever find true love again. "I didn't think I'd have a relationship again," he told Closer Weekly. "I was kind of in that 'just work, make people happy and take care of your kids until they're '90s mindset."
That all changed when he met his new wife, Kelly Rizzo. According to People, the couple met through a mutual friend in 2015. They had a whirlwind romance from there. Despite their 23 year age difference, Rizzo and Saget have a lot in common. Rizzo is a food and travel blogger, and Saget loves traveling around the world with her.
The pair got engaged in an interesting way. Saget popped the question during an episode of "Stranger Things." "I got up to go to the restroom, and I opened the safe and I took out a ring that I had been hiding for four days and I got on one knee," Saget gushed to People. "And she said 'What are you doing?!' She got very emotional, and so did I. I tried to put it in words that make sense. I adore her. She's fantastic and I'm a very lucky man." The pair are living happily ever after.
Bob even dated this news reporter
In between marriages, Bob Saget had an interesting dating life. Believe it or not, Saget went on a date with legendary news anchor Katie Couric.
According to the Huffington Post, Couric told the "Howard Stern Show" that she went on a date with Saget several years ago. On the date, she shared Saget "was fun, he was really fun," Couric gushed. "I had fun; I don't think I did it for him." Have fun getting the image of Couric and Saget as a couple out of your head for the rest of the day! According to Couric, there was no second date.
