Wednesday, December 17, 2025 - Rob Reiner’s troubled son Nick has reportedly been placed on suic!de watch after his arrest for allegedly st@bbing the legendary director and his wife to de@th inside their California home.
Nick Reiner is currently being held in administrative
segregation and on suicide watch while behind bars at Twin Towers Correctional
Facility in Los Angeles, law enforcement sources told TMZ.
Reiner, 32, was arrested on murder charges and is being
held without bail after cops found the “The Princess Bride” director and
his wife, Michele, stabbed to de@th in their Brentwood home on Sunday
afternoon.
The son of the legendary director has been in and out
of rehab for his drug addiction and has faced mental health struggles over
the years.
Reiner “freaked out” and had a massive blow-up with his
parents at Conan O’Brien’s Christmas party on Saturday, only a day
before the tragic slayings, a source confirmed to The Post.
The trio reportedly had a “very loud argument,” which
was possibly fueled by Reiner going back on drugs and refusing treatment, the
source said.
“They had had an argument at Conan’s holiday party, and Rob
had been telling people that they’re scared for Nick and scared that his mental
state was deteriorating,’’ a lifelong family friend who lives near the Reiner
home told The Post.
Nick was supposedly off drugs,” but then talk surfaced
that he was “not so much off them,’’ the neighbor said.
The accused killer was, at his lowest points, “badly
addicted to a combo of opiates and heroin,” the family friend added.
The Reiner family still tried to rally around Nick and help
him work through his addiction and bouts of homelessness.
Nick’s sister, Romy, reportedly found their parents’ bodies
around 3:40 p.m. Sunday.
She had told investigators that her brother was “dangerous”
and “should be a suspect.”
He was later arrested and charged with their murd£rs.
