It’s a love story tragically cut short.

As we’ve been reporting, Rob and Michele Reiner were found dead in their Brentwood, Los Angeles home on Sunday. Their 32-year-old son, Nick Reiner, who struggled with his mental health and drug addiction for years, was arrested and charged for brutally murdering both of them. The couple loved each other and their family so much — that’s crystal clear from everything we’ve heard and seen about them over the years. So to see their lives end like this is just devastating. And while we all mourn their loss, let’s look back on their epic love story together…

When Rob Met Michele

Rob and Michele met on the set of the film he directed, When Harry Met Sally. He had been single for 10 years and didn’t think he would find anyone following his divorce from Penny Marshall. However, the filmmaker saw a “very attractive woman” on set one day — after previously telling a friend he planned to ask Michelle Pfeiffer out. That woman turned out to be Michele! They fell in love and got married in 1989, the same year the beloved rom-com came out. And we would’ve had a completely different (and terrible) ending to the iconic on-screen love story if it weren’t for his deep love for Michele! / (c) When Harry Met Sally/Columbia Pictures
