Rob Reiner’s son Jake has made his first red carpet appearance since his parents Rob Reiner and his wife Michele Singer Reiner’s deaths, where he attended the premiere of a series he is starring in
Jake Reiner has made his first public appearance since his parents’ deaths. Rob Reiner and his wife Michele Singer Reiner died by multiple knife stab wounds in December 2025. It is claimed that their bodies were found by their daughter, Romy, at their Brentwood home.
Since then, their son Nick was charged with his parents’ murder. He later appeared in court and pleaded not guilty to six felony charges, two of first-degree murder, two of special circumstances involving multiple murder and two counts of special circumstances using a deadly weapon, which was identified as a knife.
Now, Jake has been seen for the first time, attending the red carpet event for Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness, which is a project of his dad’s friend Larry David, in Los Angeles at the Hollywood Legion Theatre.
Taking to Instagram to document the occasion, he said: “Attended the premiere of Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness this week. Comes out Friday on @hbo @hbomax, look out for me in the first episode.”
Jake has been open about discovering the tragic news of his parents’ death. In a Substack post in April, he said: “I received a call from my sister Romy telling me our father was dead. Minutes later, she called back telling me our mother was also dead.
“The 45-minute Lyft ride from downtown to the west side was unendurable … The only thing I could focus on was that I needed to get to my childhood home. I needed to get to my sister. I needed to figure out what the hell just happened.”
Jake said that that day, he felt robbed of so many things. “My parents won’t be at my wedding, they won’t get to hold their future grandchild, and they won’t get to see me have the successful career I’m still seeking,” he added.
“It simultaneously breaks my heart and enrages me … Nothing can prepare you for what it feels like to lose both parents instantly at the same time,” with Jake describing it all as a “living nightmare”.
Rob Reiner was best known for his work as an actor and director, appearing in The Wolf of Wall Street and in New Girl as Jess Day’s father, Bob Day. He was also the director of popular films, including the heavy metal mockumentary This Is Spinal Tap, The Sure Thing, Stand by Me, The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally, Misery, and A Few Good Men.
