R.I.P. Estelle Reiner

October 29th, 2008 by Evil Beet


We lost an important piece of Americana this weekend.

Estelle Reiner, the wife of Carl Reiner and mother of Rob Reiner, was also an accomplished painter, jazz singer and antiwar activist.

But you know her?

As the “I’ll have what she’s having” lady from the Meg Ryan orgasm scene in When Harry Met Sally.

Estelle passed away at her home in Beverly Hills on Saturday at the age of 94.

You will be missed, Estelle, but — rest assured — never forgotten.
