Diane Keaton’s pal claimed she left $5 million to her dog so he’s taken care of for the rest of his life.

“Reggie was her world,” a friend told Rob Shuter‘s Substack. “Diane used to joke her great loves were her children, Al Pacino, architecture — and that dog.”

The report explained that the funds will ensure he is properly taken care of for the rest of his life, with some of it also being donated to animal charities.

“She wanted Reggie to live with the same dignity and humor she did,” a second insider shared. “It’s the most Diane thing ever — eccentric, kind and deeply loving.”

The movie star’s final Instagram post, which was an April joint upload with retailer Hudson Grace, even included the pup.

One source noted that her daily routine abruptly changed, spilling, “Up until just a few months ago, she’d walk her dog every day. She was usually dressed the same, with a hat and her signature sunglasses regardless of the weather.”

“She was always very nice, funny and chatty. She’d talk to her dog like he was a person,” they added. “She was eccentric and had this old-school Hollywood aura. She was very, very special.”
