Nick Reiner's chilling admission about his father Rob Reiner, ‘We didn’t…'
Nick Reiner, the son of Rob Reiner and his wife Michele, is allegedly being questioned by police as a person of interest in his parents' deaths, TMZ reported.
Rob Reiner, the renowned filmmaker, and his wife Michele Singer Reiner, were found dead on December 14 within their residence in Brentwood, Los Angeles.
Emergency responders were summoned to the scene in the afternoon, and authorities confirmed the couple's demise.
The Robbery-Homicide Division of the Los Angeles Police Department has initiated an investigation into the incident, which is being treated as a potential homicide (murder).
Reports from various news outlets like NY POST state that the victims suffered injuries similar to a knife attack, although official information from law enforcement remains scarce as the investigation progresses.
Is Rob Reiner's son Nick being probed?
The focus soon shifted to the couple's 32-year-old son, Nick Reiner, as several sources referenced by publications such as People and TMZ have stated that Nick is currently being interrogated by police and is regarded as a person of interest regarding Reiner and Michele's deaths.
However, no official arrest has been made so far, and the authorities have not publicly verified any charges or formally recognized Nick as the suspect. Meanwhile, investigators continue to work on establishing a timeline and motive as they examine the evidence.
Nick Reiner's shocking admission about his father Rob Reiner
During an interview with BUILD Series released on May 5, 2016, Nick discussed how the process of creating Being Charlie strengthened his relationship with father after they struggled to connect during his childhood.
“It really clicked for me because we didn’t bond a lot as a kid,” he stated at the time. “He really liked baseball, I liked basketball, and he could watch that with my brother — baseball — but I just, when I saw him do that, it was something that I’m interested in, I was like, ‘Wow, he really knows a lot’ and it made me feel closer to him.”
Navigating life while growing up with a well-known father was not a straightforward journey for Nick. By the time his middle child was beginning to find his way, Rob had already established himself as a prominent figure. Renowned for his roles in classic films such as The Princess Bride and When Harry Met Sally…, Rob was deeply involved in both Hollywood and activism, which frequently drew attention from various quarters.
