Before catching the eye of Bob Saget, Kelly Rizzo already had lots of eyes on her! As a journalist, the digital host started a web series back in 2013 titled “Eat, Travel, Rock.” On the web show, Rizzo would jet around the world interviewing celebrities, influencers, and fellow chefs like herself.
The series quickly took off with Rizzo’s infectious personality, leaving her to win awards for not only the series itself but for her, too — becoming Modern Luxury Michigan Avenue Magazine’s “Travel Queen” in 2017. And as the series gained more eyes, Rizzo caught Saget’s attention. The rest, for the couple, was history.
A year before losing her husband, Rizzo took to TikTok explaining to fans how the two met, after the actor found her through her web series. “So he saw my Instagram and he’s like, ‘Oh, it’s not all selfies and bikinis like she actually does stuff. She has this food show and travel show. She seems interesting,'” Rizzo explained. After finding her Instagram blog, Saget sent Rizzo a message asking if she would want to see his show and go out to eat. After hitting it off, the two began dating and married in 2018. And now, following Saget’s passing, Rizzo has kept up her blog that ultimately led her to her soulmate in the first place. But alongside her blog, Rizzo has taken on an even more important job.
