Adam Sandler and his wife Jackie, who have been married for 17 years, met on the set of the film Big Daddy in 1999.
Despite only scoring a minor role in the film as a waitress, sparks flew between them off-screen after her character brought him a root beer at a sports bar.
’22 years ago today we locked eyes and fell deep. Look forward to the next 22, young lady. Love you my forever girl,’ the 53-year-old Uncut Gems star gushed over his longtime spouse on Friday.

Speaking of Jackie and their kids, he joked, ‘They watched the kissing. They love it. They love Aniston, and they want her to have good things and they say, ‘Give her something nice.’
Back in May, the doting dad spoke about the challenges of working from home with his youngsters, who were swamped with schoolwork.
‘I’m in the middle of their school every day, so I gotta quietly talk to people and I’m typing things while they’re doing their work and stuff and not understanding any of it,’ he said on Jimmy Kimmel Live. ‘But I peek my head in and say hi to the teachers.’
