Born just a couple of years apart, Sadie, born on May 6, 2006, and Sunny, born on November 2, 2008, have grown up in the world of entertainment, as per the report.
The sisters have also gone viral many times in the past few years, like in 2022, a TikTok user shared a video of the younger sister's bat mitzvah, which showed a glimpse of Sunny's party, which had A-list guests and performances by Charlie Puth and Halsey, as reported by People.
Then a few months later, when their dad received the 2022 Gotham Awards' Film Tribute Award, the sisters, who were 16 and 14 at the time, had apparently asked Sandler if they could write his acceptance speech, which he hadn't prepared, as reported by USA Today.
He had said at that time, "I said absolutely," adding, "It would be nice to see you do something other than watch YouTube or go to (expletive) Lululemon every (expletive) weekend," as quoted in the report.
