Let me tell you a story about Hollywood's golden couple—Adam Sandler and his wife, Jackie. Picture this: it's 1999, and they meet on the set of Big Daddy. Sparks fly, and the rest is history. They tied the knot in 2003, surrounded by A-listers like Rob Schneider, Jennifer Aniston, and Dustin Hoffman. Since then, they've built an incredible life together, blending careers in entertainment with raising a beautiful family.
Who Is Jackie Sandler, Adam's Better Half?
Jackie Sandler, born and raised in Florida, didn’t start out as an actress. She began her journey in the world of high fashion modeling before transitioning into acting. Her big break came when she landed a cameo in Rob Schneider's 1999 comedy, Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo. Rob, being the generous guy he is, helped Jackie get a part in Big Daddy, where she met Adam. This wasn’t just another day on set—it was the beginning of a lifelong partnership.
Fast forward to August 2020, when Adam celebrated their 22nd anniversary of meeting each other. On Instagram, he shared a heartfelt throwback photo, reminiscing about how he "locked eyes and fell deep" for Jackie right there on set. Their wedding in Malibu was nothing short of magical, filled with laughter, love, and some of Hollywood's biggest names.

Over the years, Adam and Jackie have worked side by side in movies like Eight Crazy Nights, 50 First Dates, Grown Ups, and Bedtime Stories. In 2019, Adam opened up about the secret to their enduring marriage at the Toronto International Film Festival. He said it all comes down to spending quality time together, staying honest, and not letting work take over their lives. Simple yet powerful advice, right?
“Just getting time together,” he told Closer. “Making sure that you don’t run off too long and hanging out together and telling the truth and that kind of thing’s good.”
In June 2023, Adam celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary with a rare Instagram post. “Happy 20th my sweet Jackie!” he wrote alongside a wedding-day photo. “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. Us. The kids. Let’s keep going and going, babe. Lots of love to give you. Always.”
Are There Kids in This Love Story?
Adam and Jackie's family grew in May 2006 with the arrival of their eldest daughter, Sadie. Their youngest, Sunny, was born in November 2008. Both girls have made appearances in several of Adam’s films, including Blended, Jack and Jill, and Murder Mystery. In August 2023, the entire family starred in Netflix’s You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah, showcasing their incredible chemistry both on and off-screen.
When Sadie and Sunny made cameos in 2020's Hubie Halloween, Adam revealed that his daughters are eager to pursue acting careers of their own. “I hear sometimes in the house, ‘I want to be in a movie,’ and I say, ‘You are, you were in this, this and this,’ and they go, ‘Not yours,’” he joked during an October 2020 interview with People. “Oh, Daddy’s not good enough! They want to do their own thing one day.”
