Bob Saget Died Of Natural Causes: Police Report
Police have ruled out the involvement of “drugs or foul play” in the death of much-loved actor Bob Saget. Saget, who was aged 65 at the time of his passing, was reportedly found dead on Sunday by hotel staff at the ‘Ritz-Carlton’ in Orlando. It’s believed that first responders arrived at the scene at around 4pm, where it was deciphered that the ‘Full House’ star likely died of a heart attack.
The Orange County Sheriff’s Office later released a statement declaring "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."
Although there has been no mention of COVID-19 in any official announcements, police are said to be investigating suggestions that the virus may have played a part in Saget’s demise. COVID concerns were raised because the comedian was in the midst of touring the country, with many being particularly troubled by his recent visit to Florida, where coronavirus is currently rife.

In addition to Bob’s death leaving his wife, daughters, and family distraught, news of his passing has caused heartbreak for many of his former cast mates. Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, who were just six-months old when they were cast to star alongside Saget in ‘Full House’, confided that they were “deeply saddened” by the tragedy.
They shared “Bob was the most loving, compassionate and generous man. We are deeply saddened that he is no longer with us but know that he will continue to be by our side to guide us as gracefully as he always has.”
“We are thinking of his daughters, wife and family and are sending our condolences.”
