Celebrities like Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen– and the rest of the “Full House” cast
are reacting to Bob Saget’s death. Let’s get into their emotional tributes.
Following Bob Saget’s death on January ninth, the comedian and actor’s on-screen family
from the show “Full House” are paying their respects.
Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, who played Michelle Tanner on the hit show - A.K.A the youngest
daughter of Bob Saget’s character Danny Tanner, released a statement that read,
“Bob was the most loving, compassionate and generous man. We are deeply saddened that
he is no longer with us but know that he will continue to be by our side to guide us as
gracefully, as he always has.”
The twins, who now mainly keep a lower profile and have avoided the “Fuller House” reboot,
went on to add, “We are thinking of his daughters, wife and family and are sending
our condolences.”
Candace Cameron Bure (like “beret”)– best known for playing and reprising her role
as oldest sister D-J Tanner shared on Twitter, ““I don’t know what to say. I have no
words. Bob was one of the best human beings I’ve ever known in my life. I loved him
so much.”
On Instagram, Andrea Barber, who played DJ Tanner’s best friend Kimmy Gibler, and honorary
member of the Tanner family, expressed her sadness with a touching message.
“This one hurts. He had the biggest heart of anyone in Hollywood. He gave the biggest
hugs. I am gutted that I will never be able to hug him again. Bob ended every text, every
interaction with “Love you.”
Andrea ended her tribute with, “This is the greatest lesson I learned from Bob Saget
– don’t hesitate to tell people you love them. I feel at peace knowing that Bob knew
exactly how much I adore him.”
In his tweet remembering Bob Saget, John Stamos –A.K.A Uncle Jesse– also said he was “gutted”
by Bob’s passing away.
“I am broken. I am gutted. I am in complete and utter shock. I will never ever have
another friend like him. I love you so much Bobby.”
Bob Saget’s other co-star David Coulier who appeared in the 1987-1995 series as Uncle
Joey tweeted, “ My heart is broken. I love you, Bob. Your forever brother, Dave.” He
also captioned a picture of the two of them, “I’ll never let go, brother. Love you.”
In addition to “Full House” cast members, other celebs also reacted to Bob Saget’s
death.
Fellow comedian Pete Davidson expressed his gratitude toward Bob in a moving statement
that he asked another comedian Dave Sirius to post on his behalf to I-G.
"Just wanted you guys to know that Bob Saget was one of the nicest men on the planet.”
Pete added, “He would check in on me and make sure I was okay. I love you Bob it was
an honor to know you. Thank you for your kindness and friendship. My condolences to the family.”
Whitney Cummings posted old photos of her,
Bob and other celebs, to insta, writing, “Bob gave everything he had to us and I’m not
sure we even deserved it. I guess I’m a bit grateful that this hurts so much, because
it meant I got to know you so well.”
And Nikki Glaser reflected, “I haven’t lost too many friends in my lifetime, so I’m
grateful to Bob for this lesson in grieving. Ultimately, I’m really lucky to feel as
sad as I do right now because it means I knew and loved a really special person.”
Wow, these messages really put a lot of people’s pain and mourning after losing someone into
perspective.”
Fans online were just as emotional and taken aback upon hearing about Bob Saget’s untimely
death.
Someone on Twitter wrote, Bob Saget's death at 65 feels almost unreal.
This person said, “He and his tv family played a part in my childhood home for years!
One would think...by now we would be over the shock of death...its something we will
never get used to…”
And finally this Twitter user shared, “First we lose America's grandmother in Betty White,
today we lost America's dad in Bob. Thoughts are with you Dave.
Interestingly enough, Bob shared a tribute to Betty White passing before his own death.
He wrote, “Betty White. This amazing woman was exactly who you wanted her to be. Razor
sharp wit, smart, kind, hilarious, sincere, and so full of love.”
We gotta say… we never pictured 2022 starting with losing two iconic celebrities in such
a short amount of time.
