Rob Reiner's Son Arrested for Parents' Murder

Nick Reiner previously opened up about his battle with addiction and bouts of homelessness.

“I was homeless in Maine. I was homeless in New Jersey. I was homeless in Texas,” Nick told People in a 2016 interview.

He said he first went to rehab at age 15, and ended up doing at least 17 stints in treatment.

He added: “I spent nights on the street. I spent weeks on the street. It was not fun.”

The younger Reiner said he “could’ve died” after bailing on a treatment center and living on the streets when he was just 19.

“It’s all luck,” he said. “You roll the dice, and you hope you make it.”

To help cope with his troubled life and demons, Nick Reiner told the celeb glossy that he co-wrote the semi-autobiographical movie “Being Charlie.”

His dad directed the 2015 film, and “The Princess Bride” star Cary Elwes appeared in it.

“It was very, very hard going through it the first time, with these painful and difficult highs and lows,” Rob Reiner told the LA Times in 2016 about his son’s battle with addiction.

“And then making the movie dredged it all up again.”

But Nick Reiner acknowledged in his interview with People that his addiction “made me who I am now, having to deal with that stuff.”

“I met crazy great people there, so out of my element. Now, I’ve been home for a really long time, and I’ve sort of gotten acclimated back to being in LA and being around my family,” he said at the time.
