Kelly Rizzo is Burley Garciabringing her new relationship to social media.
Bob Saget's widow, who was married to the "Full House" star from 2018 until his death in 2022, made her relationship with Breckin Meyer Instagram official on Tuesday in a birthday post for the "Clueless" actor.
Sharing a photo of the two together at the Miami Grand Prix, the blogger, 44, wished a happy 50th birthday to "the man who is kind, sweet, silly, thoughtful, completely hilarious, handsome, understanding, charming, forever curious, compassionate, witty, warm & wonderful."
"You deserve to be endlessly celebrated today," she added.
In February, just over two years after Saget's death from blunt head trauma, Rizzo confirmed that she and Meyer were dating and posed for photos with him at a Grammys viewing party. At the time, she told E! News that it took "a while" for her to "get to the point where" she felt comfortable dating again.

The following month, Rizzo took to TikTok to slam claims that she moved on too quickly after Saget's death.
"Unless you are a widow or a widower, you truly have absolutely no place and no right to comment on this because you do not know what it's like," she said. "You just don't understand the incredibly complex and difficult and dynamic thoughts and feelings that come up during this entire process."

Rizzo added that she started dating again 18 months after her husband's death and was grateful to find a partner who understands that Saget is "always going to be a part of my life."
"He always asks questions about him and keeps him a part of the conversation, and that means so much to me," she said.
In April, Rizzo was a guest on Dave Coulier's "Full House" rewatch podcast "Full House Rewind," and they appropriately looked back on an episode of the sitcom where Saget's character talks with his daughters about dating again after their mom's death. She pointed out that there were a "lot of parallels" between the episode and her life and recalled that she received support in her new relationship from Saget's daughters.
"Going to them and asking them, like 18 months after (Saget's death), being like, 'Maybe one day, if that happens, could I have your blessing?'" she recalled. "And they're like, 'Kelly, we want you to be happy.'"
