Summary
- Executive denies Rob and Nick Reiner fought before parents' murder.
- Nick Reiner charged with murder; previously diagnosed with schizophrenia.
- Nick Reiner's behavior at Conan O'Brien's party was erratic, not a fight.
A Hollywood executive present at Conan O'Brien's Christmas party on December 13, 2024, has denied widespread reports of a physical altercation between Rob Reiner and his son Nick. These rumors surfaced following the tragic discovery of Rob and Michele Reiner, murdered in their Brentwood home shortly after the event. The executive stated that O'Brien witnessed no fight or argument, calling the reports "bulls-t."
While Nick Reiner, 32, did attend the party and exhibited unsettling behavior, including eavesdropping and making guests uncomfortable, the executive emphasized that the situation did not escalate into a major dispute. Reports of Nick having a brief, strange interaction with actor Bill Hader were confirmed, but it was not a significant conflict.
Nick Reiner was arrested on Sunday, December 15, 2024, and formally charged with two counts of first-degree murder on Tuesday, December 17, 2024. The homicides were ruled as stabbing deaths. He has been diagnosed with schizophrenia, and his medication regimen had reportedly been altered before the murders. Nick is currently held without bail.
