\nShailene Woodley won Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama Series for her role in Paradise<\/p>\n
Rob Reiner has been posthumously honoured with an Emmy Award for his guest appearance in the series The Bear.<\/p>\n
The Spinal Tap director, 78, and his wife Michele Singer Reiner, 70, were found dead from apparent stab wounds in their home in Los Angeles last December.<\/p>\n
Their son Nick, 32, has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder. He has pleaded not guilty.<\/p>\n
On Sunday night in the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, Reiner was announced as one of the winners at the ceremony formerly known as the Creative Arts Emmys. <\/p>\n
He won the award for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series after playing Albert Schnurr on a 2025 episode of The Bear.<\/p>\n
Following the announcement of his win, presenter Wendi McLendon-Covey told the audience it was “appropriate to stand for this one”.<\/p>\n
“I know we all wish Rob could be here tonight to share in the celebration; I’m honoured to accept this Emmy on his behalf,” she said.<\/p>\n
The comedy-drama series The Bear stars Jeremy Allen White as Carmy Berzatto, an award-winning chef who returns to his hometown of Chicago to manage the chaotic kitchen at his recently deceased brother’s Italian beef sandwich shop.<\/p>\n
Reiner’s posthumous win came 48 years after he won an Emmy for his role on All in the Family in 1978.<\/p>\n
His win on Sunday broke the record for the longest gap between acting wins in Emmy history. <\/p>\n
Reiner’s father, Carl Reiner, previously held the record after winning the same category in 1995 for his role in Mad About You, 37 years after he first won for Caesar’s Hour.<\/p>\n
The Creative Arts weekend, which was held ahead of the Primetime Emmys on 14 September, saw more than 100 awards handed out over two nights.<\/p>\n
Other winners at the awards included Shailene Woodley, who won her first Emmy for her role in the post-apocalyptic thriller series Paradise.<\/p>\n

In July, the Television Academy announced both categories, along with several others, would be moved from the main broadcast show due to the “limited time available within a three-hour broadcast”.<\/p>\n
The Primetime Emmys ceremony, hosted by Mariska Hargitay, will be held at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles on 14 September.<\/p>\n
