Jodie Sweetin says Full House group chat fell silent after Bob Saget’s passing

Jodie Sweetin revealed that the cast’s group chat has been largely quiet since Bob Saget’s death, noting how much his presence is still missed.

Bob Saget, who died at age 65 from blunt-head trauma in a hotel room at the Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes, is still a frequent subject in the Full House alumni’s communications. Jodie Sweetin told SheKnows that the group chat they share has become “very quiet” since his passing, reflecting how his absence is felt whenever the cast gathers. She highlighted Saget’s habit of being the first to wish happy birthdays and plan events, noting that his love of attention would have made him happy to stay involved.

Earlier this month, Sweetin, John Stamos, Lori Loughlin, Dave Coulier and Andrea Barber met at The Nostalgia Con in Orlando, where Stamos posted a backstage TikTok of the cast dancing to C+C Music Factory. The reunion underscored the lasting bond among the actors, who consider each other family. Sweetin’s comments convey both grief and gratitude for the memories they shared with Saget, whom she described as a brother, father, and friend.
