Rob Schneider has long been one of the few Hollywood celebrities willing to express opinions that run contrary to Democrats’ woke agenda making him a top enemy of the Left.
But ever since he started speaking publicly about his recent conversion to Catholicism he’s racked up a whole new crop of enemies – including his own family.
And Rob Schneider’s response to a recent attack from his own daughter left Tucker Carlson in complete shock.
Elle King says she doesn’t “want to be associated with” her father
People often look to celebrities as if they have an easy life that would make anyone happy.
It feels like money and fame are all that matters.
But just because someone grows up rich and famous doesn’t mean they are happy.
Rob Schneider’s daughter, Elle King just made that perfectly clear.
In an interview on the Dumb Blonde podcast, she explained that her dad was obsessed with her physical appearance.
“I was a really, really heavy child. My dad sent me to fat camp. It was rough and I got in trouble one year because I sprained my ankle and I didn’t lose any weight,” she said.
King also claimed that her father also missed “every single birthday.”
“I spent my 18th birthday in a summer school, and they brought me cupcakes and when I came home, my dad had forgotten.”
King says that after a challenging childhood, she doesn’t “want to be associated with him.”
Now Schneider is getting panned in the media, and he’s humbling himself.
“I wish I was the father in my 20s that you needed, and clearly I wasn’t. . .”
Shortly after King’s interview, Schneider sat down with Tucker Carlson on his podcast, The Tucker Carlson Show.
And he got an opportunity to respond to the comments.
“I hate to start with this, but I read what looked like a family tragedy playing out in the news – your daughter going after you,” Carlson said at the outset.
Staring straight into the camera, Schneider told his daughter exactly how he felt.
“I love you completely, I love you entirely, and I just want you to be well and happy with you and your beautiful baby, Lucky,” he said.
The comedian then explained that he had many regrets from the early years of his career.
Schneider says that he feels “terrible,” but not because of the things she said, rather because of what he didn’t do.
“I wish I was the father in my 20s that you needed, and clearly, I wasn’t. I hope you can forgive me for my shortcomings,” he continued.
“We can never begin to settle all the world’s grievances. . .”
The conversation with Carlson continued as normal, but by the end it came back full circle.
And Schneider shared a heartwarming response that he got from a friend in the wake of King’s comments.
“We’ve been our own worst enemies most of our lives, and we often injured ourselves seriously as a result of a justified resentment over a slight wrong,” he said, reading from his phone.
“Doubtless, there are many causes for resentment in the world, most of them providing justification,” he added. “But we can never begin to settle all the world’s grievances or even arrange things so as to please everybody.”
“If we’ve been treated unjustly by others. . . we can avoid compounding the difficulty by completely forgiving the persons involved and abandoning the destructive habit of reviewing our huts and humiliations,” he finished.
