Comedian and actor Rob Schneider is not the only superstar in his family, his daughter from his first marriage is "Ex's & Oh's" singer Elle King!
Rob Schneider and Elle King
Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo and Saturday Night Live star Rob Schneider married supermodel London King back in 1988, and although their marriage sadly only lasted 2 years, the two did produce an incredible daughter in 1989.
Their daughter was born Tanner Elle Schneider in 1989 in Los Angeles, California. Elle explained to People, "My whole childhood, my dad was a workaholic," so the two had a strained relationship while she was raised in Ohio by her mother and stepdad. Elle even altered her name to take on her mother's maiden name.
Elle has since built up her own powerful music career that skyrocketed when her song "Ex's and Oh's" topped the charts. Elle sadly also suffered from substance abuse, serious depression, and PTSD after her very scary "destructive marriage" to Andrew Ferguson. She and her ex-husband finally separated in 2017 after Ferguson was charged with domestic violence on Elle.
Now she is happily engaged to tattoo artist Dan Tooker. Adorably the pair even proposed to each other!
Now Elle is strong, proud and has put her past issues with her father behind her. Now that Rob has had 2 little girls with his third wife Patricia Azarcoya Arce, Miranda and Madeline, Elle has stepped in to be a big sister.
"We both have grown up a lot. And you realize what's important. Him having children, I wanted my sisters to have good memories of me from their childhood when they grew. Family really is so important. So through that, me just kind of showing up and trying to be good for them, really made it easy because there were no bad motives. When it's about the kids, the bulls*** kind of goes away. I love him."
Now, "the relationship I have with my father is what I always wanted." Kind Rob is very encouraging of her work too! "Honestly, he's probably my biggest supporter. Like every other day I'll get texts in all caps of like, 'Your record's gonna change the world! I can't wait for your fans to hear what you've made! I love you! I'm so proud of you!' And that's a beautiful, wonderful thing."
Rob himself is very outspoken about how proud he is of Elle, apparently, now fans recognized as "Elle King's dad!" The two are so sweet and a great example for both his fans and her fans. Check out some of our favorite snaps of the daddy-daughter duo!
