Rob Schneider Apologizes To Elle King: 'I Wish I Was The Father' That 'You Needed'
HuffPost
Speaking to Tucker Carlson, Schneider offered a message to his daughter: "I hope you can forgive me for my shortcomings."
Comedian Rob Schneider wasn’t in a laughing mood during a recent interview with Tucker Carlson.
That’s because the interview happened a couple of days after singer Elle King, the 35-year-old daughter of the “Saturday Night Live” alum, called out his “toxic” parenting on the “Dumb Blonde” podcast.
King, best known for her 2015 hit “Ex’s & Oh’s,” said her relationship with Schneider was pretty rocky at times, due to long stretches of no contact and what she called his harsh criticisms of her appearance.
“I go for like four or five years without talking to my dad,” King told podcast host Bunnie XO. “If I would ever spend a summer with my dad, it would be on a movie set. I would just get lost in the shuffle.”
King also claimed that Schneider “forgot about every single birthday,” and emphasized that she doesn’t agree with her father’s conservative politics.
