Bob Saget’s widow Kelly Rizzo and her new boyfriend Breckin Meyer were spotted holding hands on a stroll in Los Angeles, California on Friday afternoon.

Less than a week after debuting their new romance, two years after the tragic death of her spouse, who died in his sleep after accidentally hitting his head in a Florida hotel room, the pair appeared comfortable engaging in some light PDA. 

For their laid-back outing, the actress, 44, wore a brown leather jacket, white tank top and light-wash ripped jeans. 

She completed her casual ensemble with a black Prada purse with a gold chain and sneakers.

Meyer, 49, bundled up in a denim jacket over a grey z-up hoodie and graphic t-shirt.  

It comes just three days after the duo made their debut as a couple at a Grammys party on Sunday.

The lovebirds arrived at the Jam For Janie GRAMMY Awards Viewing Party held at Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles.

It was clear they are very much in love because they arrived holding hands at the event. Breckin is best known for his roles in Clueless, The Craft and Road Trip and was previously married to Deborah Kaplan, with whom he has two daughters.

And Kelly – who married Bob in 2018 – was more than happy to talk about dating again and revealed she had the blessing of her late husband’s daughters.

‘It took a while,’ she told E! News about dating again, ‘to the point where I’m like, “OK, I think he’d be happy with it”.’

And talking about having the support of Aubrey, Lara and Jennifer Saget, she said: ‘It’s wonderful, it just meant so much to have their blessing.

‘They’re just angels. And to have them support is so meaningful.’

In December, Kelly said that having the girls’ support and blessing means the world to her.

She told Fox News: ‘I’d love to think that Bob would want me to be happy too, but to hear it from them is just a totally different level. And it meant the world just to hear, ‘Hey, we trust you. We love you.’

Bob died in his sleep aged 65 on January 2022 at The Ritz-Carlton Orlando, after accidentally sustaining blunt head trauma.

He became a star playing opposite John on Full House, the smash hit sitcom that ran for eight seasons on NBC from 1987 to 1995.

Bob was found dead in his hotel room bed in Orlando around 4pm EST on January 9, 2022 after performing a stand-up gig in Jacksonville the previous night, sources close to the investigation informed TMZ.

The police saw no sign of drugs or foul play and it was initially suspected that he succumbed to either a stroke or a heart attack.

However, the following month, his family announced that medical examiners had ruled head trauma to be the cause of death.

‘They have concluded that he accidentally hit the back of his head on something, thought nothing of it and went to sleep,’ said the family’s statement.

Florida medical examiner Joshua Stephany, MD confirmed to People magazine that Bob’s death was ‘the result of blunt head trauma.’

Blunt head trauma can cause death via brain bleed, bruising to the brain or asphyxiation while unconscious.
