"At the London premiere of When Harry Met Sally, I was walking to meet Princess Di and someone shouted, 'Hey Meathead,'" he said in a 2003 interview with Manila Times. "Many times I’ve said I could win the Nobel Prize and they’d write 'Meathead wins the Nobel Prize.' I’ll never get past that."

After his 1981 divorce from director Penny Marshall, Reiner met Singer while filming 1989's When Harry Met Sally. The two married that same year and later welcomed three children: son Jake in 1991, son Nick in 1993, and daughter Romy in 1997.
