Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner’s son Nick Reiner has been charged for the couple’s murder.
Insiders close to the family tells People Magazine that the late couple never gave up on their son.
While Nick has been opened about his struggles with drug addiction, homelessness and rehab, the source claims, “his issues were far, far out of his parents’ control.”
They added that he “didn’t take [his parents’] help seriously. This was true for years and years.”
Moreover, the source also shared that Rob and Michele’s other children Jake and Romy were “empathetic to how much his struggles contributed to his behavior.”
“They never lost hope in him, even when he was scaring them or making their lives harder,” the source added.
They shared that “Nick had so many good days too,” noting that his struggles would “change day to day. They thought they had more time before it resulted in tragedy.”
Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner were found dead inside their Los Angeles home on December 14, 2025. Nick Reiner appeared at the court on December 17 and his lawyer Alan Jackson declined to enter a plea for his client. Now, his arraignment will continue Jan 7, 2026.
