Adam Sandler is a dad of 2: What to know about his family

WATCH: Adam Sandler steals the show during Conan O'Brien's Oscars monologue

Adam Sandler has made a name for himself in the entertainment world for the last three decades, but aside from acting, performing and singing, the beloved comedian is also a devoted family man.

Sandler and his wife Jackie Sandler , whom he wed in 2003, are the parents of two daughters, Sadie and Sunny.

Both Sadie and Sunny star alongside their dad in the highly-anticipated sequel, "Happy Gilmore 2."

The movie, airing on Netflix in July, features Sadie and Sunny alongside new co-stars including Bad Bunny as Sandler reprises his role as a down-and-out hockey player who uses his prior experience to pick up golf.

When O'Brien called Adam Sandler out for his appearance, the "Happy Gilmore" star brought the audience to laughs with his reply.

"Nobody even thought about what I was wearing until you brought it up," Sandler replied to O'Brien's question about what he was wearing.
