Billy Crystal says he no longer trusts God after losing home of 46 years then his longtime friend Rob Reiner

Billy Crystal is opening up about how a devastating year changed his relationship with God.

During an interview with CBS Sunday Morning , the comedian, 78, opened up about how losing his longtime Pacific Palisades home in the January 2025 wildfires and the death of his close friend Rob Reiner greatly impacted his faith.

Crystal was asked whether he had been speaking with God after the painful losses.

The actor referenced his previous one-man show, "700 Sundays," in which he described conversations with God, before offering a stark response.

"Too many bad things have happened," he added.

"The Earth is in bad shape.

This is a weird, scary time.

So no, not anymore." Crystal’s longtime home was destroyed in the Palisades fire after he and his wife, Janice, lived there for 46 years.

The couple raised their children and grandchildren in the house, which Crystal described as a "magical place." Speaking at a benefit weeks after the disaster, Crystal recalled visiting the remains of what was once his home.

"I stepped onto the grounds and fell to my knees and I wailed.

I had not cried like that since I was 15 years old, and I was told that my father had just died.

I remember looking in the mirror back then with my whole life ahead of me thinking, ‘What’s my life gonna be like without him?'" "And now folks, I'm 76-years-old, without a mirror and a lot less life to ponder thinking, ‘What is my life going to be like without our home?’" Crystal asked.
