Outside that, she is also known to work as a screenwriter and author; her net worth is estimated at around $1 million. Since their divorce, Kramer has kept a relatively low profile, but she still lives in California, where she has a home worth about $3.5 million.

HOW DID BOB SAGET DIE?

In March, police records that chronicled Bob Saget's death were revealed, and his family attorney Brian H. Bieber confirmed that the reports perfectly represented an extensive buildup of the events leading up to his death.

In his statement, Bieber claimed that Saget passed away after hitting his head during a fall in his hotel room. The cause of death had been under speculation since the medical examiner revealed that he died after suffering head trauma.

Since it was revealed the trauma came from the fall, the Saget family requested that they be allowed the privacy to mourn in peace. RIP Bob.
