Did You Know That Rob Reiner Appeared In Reba McEntire’s “Does He Love You” Music Video?

Such a tragic situation.

Last night it was revealed that actor and director Rob Reiner had been brutally murdered, alongside his wife Michele, in their Los Angeles home.

Reiner got his start in the entertainment industry back in the late 1960s with small roles in shows like The Andy Griffith Show and The Beverly Hillbillies before getting his breakout role as “Meathead” on All In the Family starting in 1971.

While he continued acting, Reiner came to be known more for his work as a director on critically-acclaimed films like When Harry Met Sally, The Princess Bride, Stand By Me, and A Few Good Men. 

Reiner’s son, Nick Reiner, was arrested this morning for the shocking murder of his parents and is currently being held without bond. It’s reported that Nick had severe mental health and drug abuse issues, and had allegedly had a “loud” altercation with his parents over the weekend during a Christmas party hosted by Conan O’Brien.

Immediately the tributes for Reiner began pouring in, including from some in the country music world who had worked with him.

Reba McEntire posted a heartfelt tribute to the late actor and director, who had actually used his experience in both of those roles for her 1993 music video for “Does He Love You.”

The song was of course a duet with Linda Davis, and the cinematic music video showcases a love triangle between the two singers and their man. The video features several scenes of them both with the man, and ends when Davis and the unnamed man take off on a boat together – only for the boat to explode as director Rob Reiner yells “Cut!” to show the cast the footage they had been filming.

At the time of the music video, Reba had been working with Reiner on his movie North, and today Reba fondly recalled her projects with the actor and director:

“I enjoyed every minute I was around Rob Reiner. He was one of a kind. I got to work with him on the movie North and he also helped us with our ending of my video, “Does He Love You.” I sure will miss him. What a gift he was to this world. Rest in peace, my friend.”

Of course Reba’s tribute to Reiner is probably not going to get as much attention as it normally would, because it seems the conversation has centered around the message released by President Donald Trump this morning.

Reiner was an outspoken liberal and frequent critic of Trump, and the president released a statement that’s been largely condemned by both sides of the aisle criticizing Reiner for his “Trump Derangement Syndrome.”

“A very sad thing happened last night in Hollywood. Rob Reiner, a tortured and struggling, but once very talented movie director and comedy star, has passed away, together with his wife, Michele, reportedly due to the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction with a mind crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME, sometimes referred to as TDS. He was known to have driven people CRAZY by his raging obsession of President Donald J. Trump, with his obvious paranoia reaching new heights as the Trump Administration surpassed all goals and expectations of greatness, and with the Golden Age of America upon us, perhaps like never before. May Rob and Michele rest in peace!”

Yeah, that’s a little different from the statement Reba released.

Regardless of how you feel about his politics, the whole situation is absolutely horrific and heartbreaking all around, especially for the rest of the family that now has to deal with not only the loss of two loved ones, but also the fact that it was done by a member of their own family.
