The video rounded up their year together with a video from every month, finishing with a snap of the pair standing hand in hand in front of a Christmas tree.

"Another year of fun with this one…sorry December got a bit lazy," Kelly, 42, captioned the post from December 29.

“Are you ready? Here we go,” the playful video begins.

Starting dressed in all black for January, it chronicled Bob and Kelly's 2021 with videos of them baking, dressed up as bikers, and driving while in snorkeling gear.

One video segment also showed Bob swinging a baseball bat toward the camera above Kelly's with the caption: “When people feel the need to comment on our 23-year age difference."

On Christmas Eve, Kelly had shared another touching photo of her and Bob as they celebrated their first Christmas together despite having been married for three years.

The journalist also posted a joke video a few days before about overhearing Bob try to explain her job.

“'She’s like a food person who travels and likes to go to concerts but it’s like her job….' Or some iteration of that," she captioned the video.

In the last days before his death, "Full House" star Bob had left adoring comments on Kelly's posts as he headed off to perform shows after the holidays.

"Pretty….pretty…pretty…. pretty… Pretty," he wrote on one picture of his wife.

The actor had added wide-eyed emoji on his wife's comment about being married to a comedian.

"Comedians are dark and ominous…and yes funny too," Kelly had said over a video of her laughing.

BOB & KELLY'S ENGAGEMENT

After meeting in 2015, Kelly and Bob were engaged just two years later - announcing their upcoming nuptials via Instagram in November of 2017.

He joked: "Love the people in this picture. The most loving and legendary @George_Shapiro Katie Killean & of course my gal Kelly.

“In case you're wondering, we were celebrating our engagement— and I know George and I will be very happy together."

At the time, Kelly also shared the engagement news on social media – showing off the impressive ring.

"Who needs pearls??? Enjoying my favorite food with my new favorite accessory," she captioned the photo.

Bob once revealed that he prosed while watching Stranger Things.

In an interview with People, Bob later shared how he and Kelly has been settling down to watch the Netflix show when he nipped to the bathroom.  

There, he had secretly concealed an engagement ring for four days and firmly believed that the time was right to pop the question.

"We were watching Stranger Things on the iPad, and then I got up to go to the restroom," he recalled.

“I opened the safe and I took out a ring that I had been hiding for four days and I got on one knee.

"And she said 'What are you doing?' and she got very emotional and so did I."

INSIDE BOB SAGET'S MARRIAGE

In 2018, the couple tied the knot at a ceremony on Santa Monica beach, California.

At the time, they exclaimed that they were “damn happy” as they shared the magical moment with fans on social media.

Bob was found dead in his hotel room at the Ritz-Carlton in Orlando around 4pm by hotel security on Sunday.

The star was pronounced dead at the scene as reports later emerged that he may have suffered a heart attack or a stroke.

Bob had been touring the country, playing a show in Jacksonville on Saturday night.

He was due to leave the state the following day.

When family members couldn't get in touch with him, they grew concerned.

He was reportedly in "great spirits and looking forward to the comedy tour" before he was unexpectedly found dead.

Sources told The Sun exclusively: "Bob was in great spirits the days before, performing sold-out comedy shows in Florida.

"You can see from his Instagram posts following the show what a blast he had on stage and how excited he was to be back on the comedy tour circuit."

While Kelly is emotional following the surprising loss, the insider says she's moved by the outpouring of love and support.

"Kelly is so appreciative and touched by all of the support, media tributes, fan response, and messages from close friends and family," the insider said.

The source went on to add: "She is still numb, as this has happened less than 24 hours ago, so she needs time to process this, and will speak out when she has had some time to properly grieve.

"It is truly devastating."
