Adam Sandler is keeping it in the family. Though his wife Jackie Sandler (née Titone) has appeared in several of his movies, most recently Murder Mystery 2, his daughters – Sadie and Sunny – stole the show last year in You Are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah.
A tight-knit family, Adam and Jackie's daughters are just as hardworking as they are, and we're sure we'll see more of them on the big screen in future. As Sadie and Sunny continue to make a name for themselves, get to know all about them and their famous parents.
Adam's marriage to Jackie
Adam met Jackie while on the set of his 1999 classic Big Daddy, in which she had a small role as a waitress.
In 2020 when they celebrated 22 years of their first time meeting, the comedian wrote in an adoring Instagram post: "22 years ago today we locked eyes and fell deep."
Adam and Jackie tied the knot in 2003 at Dick Clark's oceanfront estate in Malibu, California, in front of a reported 400 glittery guests; among them were Jennifer Aniston, Jack Nicholson, Rob Schneider and Sharon Osbourne.
They celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary last summer, for which Adam shared yet another touching tribute on Instagram. He wrote: "Your 'I do' was the best gift of my life. My heart has been yours since the first second I saw you and I love and appreciate your devoted soul more and more each day."

Sadie, 18
Adam and Jackie welcomed their first daughter Sadie, now 17, in 2006. In You Are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah, she stars as her little sister's on-screen older sister, Ronnie Friedman. She made her on-screen debut on her dad's hit comedy Grown Ups in 2010.
Her own Bat Mitzvah was reportedly a huge success, as Adam arranged for Maroon 5 lead singer Adam Levine to perform. He told Jimmy Kimmel: "I text him, 'I'm sorry to do this to you, my kid's getting bat mitzvahed Saturday night. Would you mind coming and singing a few tunes? It would be incredible.'"
Not only did he agree, he brought along his lead guitarist, James Valentine. It certainly won the comedian some cool points as Sadie loved it: "Oh, she hugged me so much, my Sadie," he said.
Sunny, 15
The couple then welcomed Sunny – You Are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah lead character Stacey Friedman – on November 2, 2008.
Like her sister, Sunny has appeared in a number of her father's films, including Grown Ups, Blended and Murder Mystery. But it looks like it won't be long til the teenager strikes out to make a name for herself on her own terms. "They wanna do their own thing one day," Adam said of his daughters.
Sunny also had an impressive Bat Mitzvah, with A-Listers like Jennifer Aniston and Taylor Lautner in attendance, and performances from Charlie Puth and Halsey - the latter described it as "the craziest bat mitzvah I've ever seen in my life," comparing it to Coachella.
What has Adam Sandler said about his daughters' Hollywood career?
During an appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show in October 2020, Adam joked: "They make it look like I'm forcing them to do it," adding: "Meanwhile, they were asking me the whole damn year, 'Can I be in your next movie, Daddy?'"
You Are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah director Sammi Cohen also recently told Decider that the girls "work harder than most adults I know."
She added: "Adam is one of the hardest working people I have ever met in my life. It’s clear the girls take on that as well."
