Reps for Hader and O’Brien did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.
Sources previously told The Post that Nick allegedly “freaked out” and had a loud argument with Rob inside the bash.
“They had had an argument at Conan’s holiday party, and Rob had been telling people that they’re scared for Nick and scared that his mental state was deteriorating,” a Reiner family friend told The Post.
The friend claimed that Nick, who has a history of violence and drug use, was “badly addicted to a combo of opiates and heroin.”
