John Stamos 'Still Texts' Bob Saget 4 Years After 'Full House' Costar's Untimely Death: 'It's Weird'

John Stamos opened up about how he's kept his connection to Bob Saget alive.

In an interview with DirecTV for their 1-minute "Direct to Camera" segment on July 9, Stamos was asked, "Who's the last person I texted?" He replied, "Bob Saget, I still text him. It's weird."

A few people addressed his comment.

One said, "Wait, the first answer has me in tears 😭😭."

"We're not crying, you are," wrote DirecTV.

Saget passed away suddenly in his sleep on January 9, 2022, while on tour at the age of 65 in Orlando, Fla., at the Ritz-Carlton hotel. A medical examiner and his family confirmed that his death was the result of accidental blunt force trauma.

He had hit the back of his head earlier, "thought nothing of it and went to sleep," with it being confirmed that neither drugs nor alcohol played a role in his death.

At the time, the Saget family released a statement saying, “The authorities have determined that Bob passed from head trauma. They have concluded that he accidentally hit the back of his head on something, thought nothing of it and went to sleep. No drugs or alcohol were involved.”

The tragic loss of the beloved Full House star and comedian left the entertainment industry shocked.

Since his passing, Stamos has been candid about how hard it has been to lose his good friend.

About two years after Saget's death, Stamos appeared as a guest on The Jennifer Hudson Show and reflected on their deep connection. He noted that he was “still very broken up about” his passing.

“He never left anything on the table; he always told you how much he loved you and cared about you, so let's keep his legacy going with that as it’s so important," Stamos said about Saget.

“I went in his backyard the night he died and I said ‘Bob, come on, show me a sign, show me that you’re OK up there,'" he added.

“And I started to walk back, and this little hummingbird came,” Stamos remembered. “I have it on my phone. It had a red; my mum used to wear a red scarf, and she had red hair, and it was her saying, ‘It’s OK, we’re OK. Bob’s up here and just be kind to one another and be loving like he was.’”

More recently, Stamos took to his Instagram to share his last photo with Saget on Sunday, May 17, in honor of what would have been his 70th birthday.

Saget was joined by his wife, Kelly Rizzo, Stamos, and his wife, Caitlin McHugh, as they stood in front of the ocean. "Last Pic" was written in the sky, as they all flashed their smiles.

Captioning the post, "We used to throw each other great birthday parties. Your 70th today would’ve been epic! I miss you and love you."
