Rob Reiner and Michele Singer's love was like the movies.
Or, at least, it was the inspiration for one.
Reiner and Singer, who were killed at their California home on Dec. 14, met on the set of "When Harry Met Sally" and married in 1989.
Reiner, the film's director, said in several interviews over the years that his meeting Singer, a photographer, changed the ending of the beloved rom-com.
“Originally, Harry and Sally didn’t get together. But then I met Michele and I thought: OK, I see how this works,” he told The Guardian in 2018.
Here's what to know about Reiner and Singer's marriage.

Rob Reiner speaks onstage at Collider's Directors On Directing Panel during 2025 Comic-Con International: San Diego at San Diego Convention Center on July 24, 2025.
Rob Reiner met Michele Singer on set of 'When Harry Met Sally'
In a February 2024 interview on "Who's Talking to Chris Wallace," Reiner revealed that "When Harry Met Sally" initially didn't end with the title characters, played by Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan, getting together.
"I'd been single for 10 years, and I couldn't figure out how I was ever going to be with anybody. That gave birth to 'When Harry Met Sally,'" he said. "I hadn't met anybody, so it was going to be the two of them seeing each other after years, talking, and then walking away from each other."
Instead, Reiner said, the original ending was only tweaked after he met his future wife.
"I met her while we were making the film, and I changed the ending," Reiner said.
Director Rob Reiner and Michele Reiner attend the "Earth To LA - The Greatest Show On Earth" event benefiting the Natural Resources Defense Council on May 6, 2004 in Los Angeles, California.
As for how their meeting took place, Reiner told The Guardian that director Barry Sonnenfeld played matchmaker. During pre-production of "When Harry Met Sally," Reiner spotted a magazine with actress Michelle Pfeiffer on the cover. He told Sonnenfeld he was going to call her, Reiner told the outlet.
But Sonnenfeld nixed that: "You’re not going to call her, you’re going to marry my friend Michele Singer," he said.
The movie ends with Harry (Crystal) going to see Sally (Ryan) at a New Year's Eve party, where he tells her he loves her before they share a kiss. The characters married three months later.
