There has been speculation online Rob kicked Nick out of the house Saturday night after returning from Conan O’Brien‘s Christmas party.
A source with direct knowledge tells TMZ, Nick left on his own accord. We do not know the circumstances under which Nick decided to leave. TMZ broke the story he and Rob got into a heated argument at Conan’s party … but it’s unclear if the exchange continued back at the Reiner residence.
