ROB Reiner’s son Nick Reiner has been arrested following the death of the Hollywood director and his wife Michele.

Nick, 32, was arrested on Sunday night and is being held in custody on a $4m (£2.9m) bail, according to the Los Angeles Sheriff Department Inmate Information Centre.
It comes after detectives launched an investigation into an “apparent homicide” after two bodies were found at the director’s home on Sunday, the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) told the Press Association.
While authorities are yet to announce the identities of the two bodies, a spokesman for the family has confirmed the death of the filmmaker and his wife of more than 35 years in a statement reported by US publications.
Reiner was a prolific filmmaker and actor and created some of the most well-known movies of the 1980s and 1990s, including romantic comedy When Harry Met Sally in 1989 and legal thriller A Few Good Men in 1992.
