Barack Obama posted on X shortly after the news went public: “Michelle and I are heartbroken by the tragic passing of Rob Reiner and his beloved wife, Michelle. Rob’s achievements in film and television gave us some of our most cherished stories on screen.

“But beneath all of the stories he produced was a deep belief in the goodness of people—and a lifelong commitment to putting that belief into action. Together, he and his wife lived lives defined by purpose.”

Los Angeles prosecutors have stated that Nick Reiner may face the death penalty should he be found guilty of murdering his parents. The 32-year-old was initially held on a $4,000,000 bond following his arrest, but this was later updated to detain him in custody without bail as he awaits his day in court.

District attorney Nathan Hochman said in a statement: “Rob Reiner was a brilliant actor and director, an iconic force in our entertainment industry for decades. His wife, Michele Singer Reiner, was an equally iconic photographer and producer.

“Their loss is beyond tragic. We will commit ourselves to bringing their murderer to justice.”
