R.I.P. ROB & MICHELE REINER


Last night, Rob and Michele Reiner were stabbed to death by their son, Nick. 

Rob met Michele while making the 1989 classic 'When Harry Met Sally…' Michele was a photographer and occasional actress, and they met on a double date arranged by the movie’s cinematographer, Barry Sonnenfeld.

While 'When Harry Met Sally...' ends with the eponymous best friends finding love together, the original ending wasn’t as happy. “It was going to be the two of them seeing each other after years, talking and then walking away from each other,” Rob Reiner said in a 2024 interview. In many ways, this not-so-happy ending was truer to Reiner’s own experiences in love.

“I had been married for 10 years. I’d been single for 10 years, and I couldn’t figure out how I was ever going to be with anybody, and that gave birth to When Harry Met Sally…” Reiner said.

But meeting Michele changed all that.
