Nick Reiner, the son of famous director Rob Reiner and Michele Singer, has had a tough journey. He's been fighting with drug problems since he was a teenager. His parents tried everything to help him, but it was really hard. They gave him space, brought him close, but his struggles were too deep. It's a nightmare for any parent.
Nick once said he used to be really angry at his parents. They sent him to a treatment center when they found out about his drug use. He felt like he had to choose between their way or being homeless. He's been homeless in different places like Maine, New Jersey, and Texas. He said it was scary and hard, but it shaped who he is today.
In 2016, Nick talked about feeling lost and without a passion. He said growing up in the shadow of his famous father and grandfather made him feel like he needed to be different. He became rebellious and angry, turning to drugs. He even admitted to causing damage in his parents' guest house.
Things seemed to be getting better, but by 2017, Nick was using drugs again. His parents, Rob and Michele, were found dead in their home. Nick has been arrested and is being held without bail. It's a tragic end to a long, difficult struggle.
