New information is coming to light regarding the tragic deaths of Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner.

According to their death certificates, which E! News has accessed, the couple was cremated following their passing.

The filmmaker known for The Princess Bride and his wife, a photographer, succumbed to “multiple sharp force injuries” on December 14 at their Brentwood, California residence, as stated in the official documents.

The medical examiner’s report reveals that Rob and Michele died within minutes of each other following an attack by their son, Nick Reiner. Rob’s death was recorded at 3:45 p.m. PT, with Michele passing just a minute later.

These times mark the moment their daughter, Romy Reiner, discovered their bodies.

“Words cannot even begin to describe the unimaginable pain we are experiencing every moment of the day,” Romy and brother Jake Reiner said in a joint statement to MS NOW on Dec. 17. “The horrific and devastating loss of our parents, Rob and Michele Reiner, is something that no one should ever experience. They weren’t just our parents; they were our best friends.”

The siblings went on to share gratitude for the condolences and support they’ve received from loved ones and the public.

“We now ask for respect and privacy,” they added, “for speculation to be tempered with compassion and humanity, and for our parents to be remembered for the incredible lives they lived and the love they gave.”

Nick—who has been formally charged with their deaths and is facing two counts of first-degree murder—made a brief court appearance Dec. 17. He did not enter a plea, as his attorney Alan Jackson––who has worked with Harvey Weinstein and Karen Read among others––was granted a continuance, and the arraignment was postponed until Jan. 7.

While speaking with reporters outside the courthouse, the attorney called Rob and Michele’s deaths a “devastating tragedy” and asked that the public not “rush to judgment,” but rather “allow the [justice] system to move forward in the way that it was designed.”

“There are very, very complex and serious issues that are associated with this case,” he said. “They just need to be thoroughly, but very carefully dealt with and examined and looked at and analyzed.”
