The "Eat Travel Rock" host talked about her loss on Wednesday to a panel of women that have all lost their spouses.
"It’s like, he’s still my husband," Rizzo said to Amanda Kloots. "It’s not like, ‘Oh, he’s my former husband.’ It’s like … the relationship is different now. It’s just — it is what it is."

Kloots lost her own husband, Nick Cordero, to Covid-19 complications in 2020. Saget was found dead Jan. 9 in a Florida hotel room. The 65-year-old had performed in the area as part of his stand-up tour.
In February, a medical examiner announced the comedian died from an accidental blow to the head, likely from a backward fall.

Saget is survived by his three daughters: Aubrey, 35, Lara, 32, and Jennifer, 29. He shares his children with his ex-wife, Sherri Kramer.
During the panel discussion, Rizzo shared that his daughters recently paid her a visit and were able to see first-hand his lingering presence in her life.

"His girls came to stay with me for, you know, the first time since I moved into the new house just this last week, and they walked in and I was like, ‘So it’s kind of like a museum to your dad, so don’t freak out but yes, he’s everywhere,'" Rizzo said. "And then they’ll catch me, like, talking to a picture every once in a while, and they’re like, ‘Stepmommy Kelly, are you OK?’"
Rizzo shared in April that she moved out of the house she shared with Saget in an Instagram Q & A.

"So, yes, I moved — you figured it out," Rizzo said in an Instagram video after reports surfaced that she was selling her Brentwood home.
