Dick Van Dyke’s centennial weekend was meant to be a joyful milestone, but it was overshadowed by tragedy and fear.
The legendary actor and his wife Arlene Silver are mourning the shocking deaths of his longtime friends Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner, while also dealing with a disturbing stalker situation at their Malibu home.
The 54-year-old took to her Instagram Stories on Dec. 16 to share that a man has been following her for months, stopping by Van Dyke’s public appearances.
“There’s someone like stalking me in Malibu,” she shared, admitting that she was too scared to attend her daily yoga class.
“And on top of that I don’t feel comfortable going out,” she added.
“I go to yoga for my mental health and just to move my body, and there’s this guy, you know, who’s been hanging around all the Dick Van Dyke stuff, and I said something to him yesterday, and hopefully…” he explained. “It’s hard to explain, but I don’t want to pay attention to it.”
She continued, “It sucks, but that’s the only hour I have to do anything for myself. So hopefully he’ll leave, or I’ll have to have a bodyguard accompany me to my yoga class. Really?”
The timing of his revelation coincided with devastating news.
On December 14, Rob and Michele Reiner were found dead in their Brentwood home.
