On Friday, the Eat Travel Rock blogger took to her Instagram Story and shared a heartfelt selfie with Katie Couric and Amanda Kloots.
“Women who have been there and understand have been so therapeutic and helpful and compassionate,” wrote the 42-year-old. “It means so much.”
“With the girls!” she added.

Couric’s first husband, Jay Monahan, passed away in 1998 at age 42 from colon cancer. Kloot’s spouse, Nick Cordero, died in 2020 at age 41 after suffering from COVID-19-related complications.
Days before, Kloots posted a photo from her separate hangout with Rizzo on Instagram.
“New friends in a club we didn’t ever think we’d be in,” captioned the 39-year-old. “So grateful to now know this strong woman, sharing stories only helps this rollercoaster we are on.”
Rizzo replied to the post and wrote: “If I’m going to be in this club, I’m grateful to have genuine caring people like you by my side.”

Saget passed away on Jan. 9 at age 65. The comedian was found dead in his hotel room at the Ritz-Carlton in Orlando, Florida, one day after he performed as part of his standup tour.
On Wednesday, the comic’s family announced in a statement that Saget’s death stemmed from an accidental blow to the head.
“The authorities have determined that Bob passed from head trauma,” the Saget family said. “They have concluded that he accidentally hit the back of his head on something, thought nothing of it and went to sleep. No drugs or alcohol were involved.”
Saget was best known for his role as beloved single dad Danny Tanner on the sitcom “Full House” and as the wisecracking host of “America’s Funniest Home Videos.”
