TMZ first reported the news, which the Orange County Sheriff’s Office confirmed. They report that they were called to Orlando’s Ritz-Carlton by Grande Lakes regarding an unresponsive man in a hotel bed.
Saget was declared dead on the spot. Officials have not found any evidence of foul play or drug abuse.

It brought fame to many cast members, including Lori Loughlin, John Stamos and the Olsen Twins.
John Stamos tweeted, “I am broken. I am gutted. I am in complete and utter shock. I will never ever have another friend like him. I love you so much Bobby.”
Among his credits, Saget was also the longtime host of America’s Funniest Home Videos and the narrator on “How I Met Your Mother.”
Saget tweeted Saturday night a picture of himself smiling after performing a Jacksonville standup set. He captioned the tweet with part. “I had no idea I did a 2 hr set tonight. I’m happily addicted to this ***t,”It is a reference to performing for a live audience.
