Adam Sandler is a popular comedian, actor, singer, and musician who has won a huge fanbase with films like ‘Happy Gilmore’, ’50 First Dates’, ‘Grown Ups’, ‘Grown Ups 2‘, and more. But in real life, he is smitten by a very special woman, his wife Jackie Sandler.
They met when she was cast in his film, ‘Big Daddy‘. Jackie played an important role in the film and the pair started dating in 1999. She converted to Judaism in 2000 and got engaged to Adam. The pair tied the knot in 2003 and are the parents of two daughters, Sadie and Sunny. Here’s all about the Sandler family.
