The next day, Rizzo, 42, spoke out on social media and shared a touching Instagram tribute to her late husband.
“I’m trying, really trying, to not think I was robbed of time. But instead to think: How lucky was I that I got to be the one to be married to THE MOST INCREDIBLE MAN ON EARTH,” she wrote in part. “I was the one who got to go on this crazy ride with him and be in his life these last 6 years. We had that time to make each other the happiest we’d ever been and change each other’s lives forever.”
“We loved each other so damn much and told each other 500 times every day. Constantly,” she added. “I know how much he loved me until the very last moment and he knew the same. I’m so grateful for that.”
