Rob Reiner And Michele Singer Reiner Passed Away!

Rob Reiner and wife Michele found dead in home. Los Angeles Police Department investigate. Prominent film director best known for TV and movies.

Shocking death of a famed actor, director and progressive activist. It appears that he and his wife were found deceased in their home in Brentwood, Los Angeles, California.

The official could not publicly discuss details of the investigation and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity. Rob Reiner and wife Michele were stabbed to death by their son.

The Los Angeles Fire Department says it responded to a medical aid request Sunday afternoon and found a 78-year-old man and 68-year-old woman dead inside.

Reiner was long one of the most prolific directors in Hollywood, and his work includes some of the most memorable movies of the 1980s and ’90s, including “This is Spinal Tap,” “When Harry Met Sally,” “Misery” and “The Princess Bride.”

His role as Meathead in the 1970s TV classic “All in the Family” alongside Carol O’Connor’s Archie Bunker catapulted him to fame.

He turned 78 in March, although authorities have not confirmed the identies of the people found dead in Reiner's home.

Messages to his representatives were not immediately returned Sunday night.

Reiner is married to producer Michele Singer Reiner, 68, and they share three children. He also adopted a child from his first marriage to ex-wife Penny Marshall.

Progressive media agitator Stephanie Miller will take this hard as well. Her former co-host Jim Ward passed away. Singer Jill Sobule passed away. Now this.

Reiner was often a guest on The Stephanie Miller Show and her Sexy Liberal Tours.

As an actor, Reiner first came to national prominence with the role of Mike "Meathead" Stivic on the CBS sitcom All in the Family (1971–1979), a performance that earned him two Primetime Emmy Awards.[1] His other acting credits include Throw Momma from the Train (1987), Sleepless in Seattle (1993), Bullets Over Broadway (1994), The First Wives Club (1996), Primary Colors (1998), EDtv (1999), Everyone's Hero (2006), and The Wolf of Wall Street (2013).

Reiner was born into a Jewish family in the Bronx, New York, on March 6, 1947. His parents were Estelle and Carl Reiner. As a child, Reiner lived at 48 Bonnie Meadow Road in New Rochelle, New York. He studied at the UCLA Film School.

Nick Reiner is the prime suspect.

Reiner married actress/director Penny Marshall in 1971. He adopted Marshall's daughter, actress Tracy Reiner (A League of Their Own), from a previous marriage to Michael Henry. Reiner and Marshall divorced in 1981.

Reiner was introduced to his future wife, photographer Michele Singer, while directing When Harry Met Sally. The meeting not only resulted in his decision to change the ending of that film, but he also married Singer in 1989. They have three children, Jake (born 1991), Nick (born 1993), and Romy (born 1997).

In 1997, Reiner and Singer founded the I Am Your Child Foundation, and in 2004, they founded Parents' Action for Children, a non-profit organization with a dual purpose: 1) to raise awareness of the importance of a child's early years by producing and distributing celebrity-hosted educational videos for parents, and 2) to advance public policy through parental education and advocacy.

Reiner has stated that his childhood home was not observantly Jewish, although he did have a bar mitzvah ceremony; Reiner's father Carl acknowledged that he himself had become atheistic as the Holocaust progressed. Reiner identified himself as having no religious affiliation and as atheistic on the January 13, 2012, episode of Real Time with Bill Maher. Reiner later said that while he rejected organized religionl, he was sympathetic to the ideas of Buddhism.

Nick Reiner may have killed his father and mother.
