Rob Reiner’s Daughter Speaks to Police After Director and Wife Found Inside Their Home
New details are emerging following reports involving filmmaker Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner, who were discovered inside their Brentwood, Los Angeles residence over the weekend.
Authorities have confirmed that the case is under active investigation, with officials urging the public to avoid speculation as facts continue to be gathered.
The couple were found on Sunday, December 14, after a family member contacted emergency services.
First responders arrived at the gated property in the upscale Brentwood neighborhood and secured the scene.
What Authorities Have Confirmed
Law enforcement sources have stated that investigators observed injuries consistent with knife wounds, prompting the Los Angeles Police Department’s Robbery-Homicide Division to take over the case.
Officials have also indicated there were no immediate signs of forced entry, though they emphasized that the investigation is still in its early stages.
A search warrant was obtained to allow detectives to conduct a detailed examination of the home.
During a press briefing late Sunday, LAPD Deputy Chief Alan Hamilton stressed that no conclusions have been reached.
“At this time, the Los Angeles Police Department is not identifying any suspects or persons of interest,” Hamilton said. “We are continuing to collect evidence and speak with family members to establish the facts.”
Reports Reference Statements Made at the Scene
Some outlets, including TMZ, reported that the couple were discovered by their daughter, Romy Reiner, who contacted authorities.
The report cited unnamed sources claiming that Romy expressed concerns to officers about a family member’s behavior.
Police have not confirmed these claims, and officials reiterated that no one has been named or detained in connection with the case.
Family Reaction
Rob Reiner, 78, and Michele Singer Reiner, 68, had been married since 1989 and shared three children, Jake, Nick, and Romy. Reiner also has a daughter, Tracy Reiner, from a previous marriage.
Tracy was the first family member to speak publicly.
In a brief comment to NBC News, she described the situation as overwhelming.“I came from the greatest family ever,” she said. “I don’t know what to say. I’m still in shock.”
A Career That Shaped Hollywood
The son of legendary comedian Carl Reiner, Rob Reiner rose to prominence as Michael “Meathead” Stivic on All in the Family, earning two Primetime Emmy Awards.
He later became one of Hollywood’s most respected directors, creating landmark films such as This Is Spinal Tap, Stand by Me, The Princess Bride, and When Harry Met Sally.
Investigation Continues
Authorities have confirmed that interviews with family members and others connected to the case are ongoing. Officials have repeatedly emphasized that no arrests have been made and that all information released so far remains preliminary.
As investigators work to determine what led to the incident, police continue to ask for patience while the inquiry unfolds.
