Sherri Kramer and Bob Saget's marriage stands as one of Hollywood's quieter love stories: a 15-year union between high school sweethearts that ended without public acrimony. Saget married Kramer in 1982, and the pair remained together for 15 years before divorcing in 1997. She was by his side as he rose from unknown comedian to one of America's best-loved TV dads, and their split, though painful, produced three daughters he called the greatest achievement of his life.
Who Is Sherri Kramer?
Sherri Kramer, also known as Sherri Kramer Saget, is a former attorney and screenwriter. She co-wrote Bob's 1990 TV special Bob Saget: In the Dream State. She is also a licensed marriage and family therapist. She and Bob Saget were married on 16 May 1982, and their marriage lasted for over 15 years until they divorced in 1997.
According to the State Bar of California, she studied at the University of Pennsylvania Law School and was admitted to the bar in December 1981. Her law licence has since become inactive. She has kept a low profile since the divorce, remaining outside of the public eye.
How Did Sherri and Bob Meet?
In his 2014 memoir, Dirty Daddy, Saget explained that he and Kramer were high school sweethearts who met when they were 17 years old. They married in 1982 and went on to welcome three daughters together. Sherri was with him during his entire Full House tenure, a remarkable stretch spanning the show's launch in 1987 right through to its finale in 1995.
Robert Lane Saget (17 May 1956 – 9 January 2022) was an American stand-up comedian, actor, director, and television host. He portrayed Danny Tanner on the sitcom Full House (1987–1995) and its sequel Fuller House (2016–2020). Saget was also the original host of America's Funniest Home Videos (1989–1997) and voiced the narrator Ted Mosby on How I Met Your Mother (2005–2014). His family-friendly fame was built entirely during his years with Sherri. By the time they divorced in 1997, he was one of the most recognisable faces on American television.
What Bob Said About the Marriage Breakdown
Saget rarely spoke publicly about the split, but he opened up in a 1998 interview on The Howard Stern Show, one of the few times he addressed the subject in detail. "I will say that in the last couple of years, I was more of a flirter than I had ever been," he said. Stern enquired whether Saget had been unfaithful to Kramer. While Saget didn't admit to that, he acknowledged that his relationship with other women had contributed to their divorce. Saget claimed his flirting was not about his fame but about him "being an idiot".
Despite the candid admission, Saget made clear that his feelings for Sherri had not disappeared. "You love Sherri; you probably still do," Stern said. "Yes, of course," Saget replied.
The Divorce and Life After
When Sherri filed for divorce, she cited "irreconcilable differences", according to a 1997 article in the Sun-Sentinel. The filing came several months after Saget announced he would not return as host of America's Funniest Videos. The couple's split does not appear to have been acrimonious, though neither Saget nor Kramer openly discussed it in the years that followed.
In an interview with Closer Weekly in 2018, Saget revealed that he didn't think he'd find love again after his divorce. "I didn't think I'd have a relationship again," he said at the time. Saget didn't remarry for more than two decades. He met food and travel blogger Kelly Rizzo in 2015 and married her on 28 October 2018 in Santa Monica. They remained married until his death on 9 January 2022.
Daughters and Sherri Kramer Now
Their first child, Aubrey, was born in 1987; their second, Lara Melanie, was born in 1989, while their third child, Jennifer Belle, was born in 1992. Aubrey and Lara both became visual artists, and Bob described all three of his daughters as artists. Jennifer, the youngest, keeps her career private. Aubrey holds a master's degree in fine arts from New York University and lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. Lara describes herself as an "artist, curator, and educator" and co-founder of Studio 200 NYC, as well as a yoga instructor. Jennifer keeps her Instagram private and is the most private of the three sisters.
Saget was unapologetic about how much his girls meant to him. He gushed: "The highest thing in my whole life is my daughters. I worship them! If everything in my life is raised to the level of how great they are, then that would be a great thing to have achieved." Saget also told Us Weekly in 2018: "Kelly and my daughters love each other, so it really is some magical thing that happened."
Sherri has been listed as a licensed marriage and family therapist in California. She has given no interviews and made no public statements in recent years. It is unknown whether Sherri ever remarried following her split from Bob. Her decision to stay out of the spotlight has been consistent since the mid-1990s.
Latest News and Net Worth
In September 2026, Bob's eldest daughter, Aubrey, made a rare public appearance with her stepmother, Kelly Rizzo, at the Los Angeles premiere of Who Is Martin Mull?, the documentary Bob co-directed before his death.

Ten months after Bob Saget's passing, Aubrey married her long-term partner Andy Kabel in Tulum, Mexico, with Bob's widow Kelly Rizzo among the guests, highlighting the continued bond between the family members.

Bob Saget had a net worth of $50 million at the time of his death in 2022. His income came from multiple sources: Full House and Fuller House salaries and residuals, hosting fees from America's Funniest Home Videos, stand-up comedy tours spanning four decades, book deals including his memoir Dirty Daddy, and real estate investments in Los Angeles. In June 2022, Kelly Rizzo listed the couple's Brentwood home for $7.765 million. After a price cut to $6.9 million, it sold off-market in March 2023 for $5.4 million. Notably, there have been no contested probate filings and no public estate litigation between his widow Kelly Rizzo and his three adult daughters, a sign that his estate planning was thorough.
