Actor Bob Saget, who starred in the 1990s sitcom “Full House,” has died at the age of 65 in a Florida hotel room.
No cause of death was listed for Saget, who was found dead in the Ritz-Carlton in Orlando, Florida, on Sunday afternoon.
Saget, who was still doing stand-up comedy, had performed in Ponte Vedra, Florida, on Saturday night, according to People.
The Orange County Sheriff’s Office confirmed that Saget had died.
“Earlier today, deputies were called to the Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes for a call about an unresponsive man in a hotel room. The man was identified as Robert Saget & pronounced deceased on scene. Detectives found no signs of foul play or drug use in this case,” the department tweeted.
In “Full House,” which ran from 1987 to 1995, Saget played Danny Tanner, a role he reprised in 2016 on the Netflix revival “Fuller House.”
Saget’s family issued a statement on Sunday.
“We are devastated to confirm that our beloved Bob passed away today. He was everything to us and we want you to know how much he loved his fans, performing live and bringing people from all walks of life together with laughter,” the statement said, according to People.
“Though we ask for privacy at this time, we invite you to join us in remembering the love and laughter that Bob brought to the world.”
