Rob Reiner’s Son Interacted With A-List Comedian at Conan O’Brien’s Holiday Party

Nick Reiner, the son of filmmaker and actor Rob Reiner, found himself at the center of an awkward moment during a high-profile holiday gathering hosted by Conan O’Brien, according to reports.

The incident, which took place at O’Brien’s annual Christmas party on Saturday, December 13, involved a brief but tense exchange between Nick Reiner and Bill Hader that ultimately led Nick Reiner to leaving the exchange angry, NBC News reported.

According to the outlet, Nick Reiner “interrupted a conversation involving comedian Bill Hader.”

“When Hader told him the conversation was private, the source said, Nick Reiner appeared to stand still and stare before ‘storming off,’” NBC News noted.

Nick Reiner Also Had an Argument With His Parents

Prior to Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner, being found dead at their Los Angeles home on Sunday, they reportedly got into an argument with their son at the party.

“They had had an argument at Conan’s holiday party, and Rob had been telling people that they’re scared for Nick and scared that his mental state was deteriorating,’’ a family friend told The New York Post.

TMZ added it was a “very loud argument,” which was “loud enough for many others to hear.”

Though it remains unclear what the argument was about, another family friend added Rob and Michele wanted Nick to return to rehab, according to the Post.

“I know [the parents] wanted him to get help, go to rehab, but he wanted to get help while at home — he did not want to get treatment at a facility,” the friend added.

“We’re told Rob and Michele then left the party,” TMZ added. “We do not know if Nick left as well.”

Nick later checked into The Pierside Santa Monica hotel around 4 a.m. and left at an unknown time.
