Rob Reiner’s daughter shared two encouraging words just hours before finding him dead

Just hours before tragedy struck, a quiet Instagram moment captured a daughter cheering on her famous father — a fleeting, ordinary snapshot that would soon feel heartbreakingly final.

Found her dad

Romy Reiner, the 28-year-old daughter of actor and director Rob Reiner, shared an Instagram Story that now reads with a haunting weight. The post, seemingly casual at the time, showed a streaming screen featuring two films tied to her father’s career.

One was “This Is Spinal Tap II: The End Continues,” the long-awaited sequel to the cult classic Rob Reiner directed. The other was the original 1984 “This Is Spinal Tap,” the mockumentary that cemented his legendary status in Hollywood.

Over the image, Romy wrote a simple caption: “Go watch.” A brief, warm, proud endorsement, at the time just a daughter supporting her dad.
