Adam Sandler recently commemorated his 20th wedding anniversary with his wife Jackie Sandler on June 22. The actor took to Instagram to express his adoration for his partner, stating that her "I do" was the greatest gift he has ever received. Sandler further expressed his unwavering love for Jackie, mentioning that his heart has belonged to her since the moment he laid eyes on her. He appreciates her dedicated soul and cherishes her even more with each passing day. Sandler concluded his heartfelt message by emphasizing his commitment to their relationship and their family, expressing his desire to continue their journey together with an abundance of love.
Several celebrities joined in the tribute, expressing their admiration for the couple. Josh Gad sent his well wishes, calling them "beauties" on their anniversary. Jodie Turner-Smith responded with a heart emoji. Nick Swardson, a frequent co-star of Adam's, playfully teased him and congratulated them on their love, mentioning Jackie's greatness and Adam's occasional odor.
Adam shared a heartwarming anecdote about the birth of his first child, expressing his initial nervousness and uncertainty. However, within minutes of being alone with his newborn and a nurse, he experienced a profound love and intense concern for his daughter, which completely overwhelmed him emotionally.
Adam has collaborated with his wife on numerous projects, such as 50 First Dates and Grown Ups. Throughout his extensive career, he has also acted alongside renowned Hollywood actresses like Drew Barrymore and Jennifer Aniston. Despite portraying the romantic partner to these A-list leading ladies, Adam expressed to W Magazine that he never feels jealous. In fact, he shared that his wife encourages him to fully embrace these romantic scenes, urging him to give his best performance.
The actor shared in the subsequent year that Jackie and Aniston, who are both 54 years old, enjoy working together to help him become a "healthier individual." During an interview with The Hollywood Reporter in 2021, he humorously mentioned their desire for him to improve his flexibility and be able to touch his toes, despite currently being about 9 inches away from achieving that goal.
In March, Jackie showcased the compatibility between her and the comedian as she delivered an inspiring speech in Washington, D.C. following Adam's recognition with the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor.
"I want to honor the genuine Adam," she addressed the audience. "The person who guzzles Pepto Bismol, cranks up the air conditioning, relieves himself in the backyard, and disrupts the norm. And let's not forget, he is just as hilarious in real life as he is on screen... And he lives up to the long-held fantasies of his prowess in the bedroom. Whether awake or not, Adam always delivers an amazing experience."
