Adam Sandler’s fans remember the growing up he did alongside the Sprouse twins in 1999’s “Big Daddy.” Behind the scenes, the real Sandler was also going through a transformative experience. In the movie, the character co-played by Dylan and Cole Sprouse has a brief exchange with a waiter who asks him about the game he’s watching. As she walks away, Sandler’s character joins his future foster son at the table. “It’s too bad you don’t like girls — I think you could have had her,” he tells him.
“Her” is played by Jackie Sandler, then Titone. That’s her only scene in the Dennis Dugan film, but it was enough to win Adam over. Adam and Jackie met thanks to Rob Schneider, who suggested her for the role. Back then, Jackie was still mainly working as a model, though she moved to L.A. to pursue her a career in acting. After snagging a small role in “Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo,” screenwriter Schneider convinced his friend Adam about to include her in his upcoming project, “Big Daddy.”
Adam needed no time to fall in love with her. “My heart has been yours since the first second I saw you,” he noted in his 20th anniversary Instagram post. In 2020, he celebrated the years that had passed since they met on set. “22 years ago today we locked eyes and fell deep. Look forward to the next 22, young lady. Love you my forever girl,” he captioned the Instagram post.
