City officials and political leaders expressed their grief, including Mayor Karen Bass, who said she was “heartbroken by the tragic loss of Rob and his wife Michele.”

“Rob Reiner’s contributions reverberate throughout American culture and society, and he has improved countless lives through his creative work and advocacy fighting for social and economic justice,” Bass said.

Former President Barack Obama joined the outpouring of tributes, posting on X: ”Michelle and I are heartbroken by the tragic passing of Rob Reiner and his beloved wife, Michelle. Rob’s achievements in film and television gave us some of our most cherished stories on screen. But beneath all of the stories he produced was a deep belief in the goodness of people—and a lifelong commitment to putting that belief into action. Together, he and his wife lived lives defined by purpose,” Obama wrote.
