Jamie Lee Curtis delivers an emotional memorial for her late friends Rob and Michele Reiner during the 2026 Emmys In Memoriam segment. Curtis, 67, appears visibly emotional and is reported to have wept as she remembers them to conclude the segment at the ceremony.
The outlets describe the moment as part of the event’s standard tribute segment, which highlights individuals who have died since the prior Emmy ceremony. Both accounts focus on Curtis’s personal remarks and the timing of her tribute—at the end of the In Memoriam segment—rather than on additional details about the Reiners’ careers, the circumstances of their deaths, or wider reactions from viewers.
While the sources largely repeat the same information, they present it with limited added context beyond the emotional tone of Curtis’s delivery and the identification of the honorees.
