Devastating truth about Rob Reiner's daughter Romy: Her own addiction battle... how she 'lived in fear' of Nick... and the handsome companion she's leaning on, all revealed by heartbroken friends
Daily Mail ^ | December 21, 2025 | Meredith Clark, Eileen Reslen, Steve Helling, Dana Kennedy

Posted on 12/21/2025 3:30:04 AM PST by Angelino97

...In a 2022 episode of the All of Us podcast, Romy admitted that, at one point, she had been smoking up to 25 joints of marijuana a day and was on antidepressants.

'I was pretty addicted,' she said. 'I hate marijuana. Addiction is very real. Let's say I was abusing it, for sure.

'Fifteen to 25 joints a day, just blitzed all the time. That's a very long time. Dude, I was really f***ed up, and now I smoke, let's say tops, three joints a day at the end of the night.'...

She had been on and off the antidepressants, she said, 'since I was 15 or 16'.

Her depression, she added, had been so 'severe' when she was at high school that some days she couldn't get out of bed.

And then there were the night terrors and panic attacks over a period of many years that left her feeling as if she were 'fighting for [her] life every night'.

'I could have a dream where I have to fight off twelve huge men with guns to save my life and run,' she explained. 'I have to literally murder people to survive in my dreams.'

More recently, Romy has been candid about her battle with endometriosis, posting out inspiring updates to her 160,000 Instagram followers.

In a surprising revelation, shared again on that podcast episode, Romy told how, despite her father's stellar career – first as an actor on hit sitcom All in the Family and later as director of classics such as When Harry Met Sally – he too struggled privately with demons.

'My dad has had pretty much clinical depression his entire life, since he was a kid, and that's how I've felt and have been diagnosed whatever with that,' Romy said.

Sounds like maybe Rob had crappy parents too. You learn parenting from your parents. If your parents are clueless, what are they going to teach them?

I get the feeling that drugs were probably available , if not through the parents, then through HollyWood “people” that were buzzing around them.

White Punks On Dope
Mom and dad live in HollyWood . < > They were saying Nick stole $200 and hired a hooker at 14 or 15 .

If $200 went missing at my house growing up, heads would have rolled.

Generational sin is real. Whole families and generations of families crushed by unrepentant sin.

Bad parenting? You’ve got to add to the mix the leftist Hollywood culture filled with America hating communists and outright perverts. Yes Reiner was indeed a bad person to be raising kids, but with a culture like Hollywood the kids had no where to turn except straight towards Hell just like Reiner.

My parents were less than perfect, as were their parents and most likely other ancestors. There comes a time when we reach adulthood that we are responsible for ourselves and can no longer blame our failures on our parents or anyone else. The good news is I have lived in a good culture most of my life and never fell for the leftist victim hood life of a doper that constantly felt sorry for myself and hated everyone.

I blame the Hollywood culture equally to that of poor parenting.

“Well, she grew up with the children of the stars
In the Hollywood hills and the boulevards
Her parents threw big parties, everyone was there
They hung out with folks like Dennis
Hopper and Bob Seger and Sonny and Cher
She feels safe now in this bar on Fairfax
And from the stage I can tell that
She can’t let go and she can’t relax
And just before she hangs her head to cry
I sing to her a lullaby”

From what I’ve heard & read, it sounds like her brother, Nick, had mental illness as a child, before he reached his teen yrs and started using alcohol & drugs.

It’s because the libtards are demons sent from hell itself.

“’I could have a dream where I have to fight off twelve huge men with guns to save my life and run,’ she explained. ‘I have to literally murder people to survive in my dreams.’

Sound familiar? Where have we seen exactly that? That dream expresses anxiety at the role women have been depicted in in movies and culture for her whole life.

Must have been a lot of family stress going on. Reiner was too obsessed with his own political views. He was blinded by the light.
