Dick Van Dyke’s 100th birthday weekend was supposed to be a joyous milestone, but it was overshadowed by tragedy and fear.
The legendary actor and his wife Arlene Silver are mourning the shocking deaths of their longtime friends Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner, while facing a disturbing stalking situation at their Malibu home.
The 54-year-old shared on her Instagram Stories on Dec. 16 that she had been followed for months by a man who lingered around Van Dyke’s public appearances.
“There’s someone stalking me in Malibu,” she shared, admitting she was too scared to attend her daily yoga class.
“And what’s more, I don’t feel comfortable going out,” she added.
“I do yoga for my mental health and just to move my body, and there’s this guy, just, you know, he’s hanging out with all the Dick Van Dyke stuff, and I said something to him yesterday, and I hope…” she explained. “It’s hard to explain, but I don’t want to give it any attention.”
She continued, “It sucks, but this is my time to do something for myself. So, I hope he goes away, otherwise I’ll have to bring a bodyguard to my yoga class. Like, really?”
The timing of his revelation coincided with devastating news.
On December 14, Rob and Michele Reiner were found dead in their Brentwood home.
