Children and Family Life

Schneider and Azarcoya share two daughters, Miranda Scarlett, 13, and Madeline Robbie, 9. Both children have already appeared in entertainment projects tied to their father’s work, reflecting how closely intertwined the family life and professional careers of the couple became.

Entertainment Runs in the Family

All three of Schneider’s children have been involved in the entertainment world in some capacity. Elle King has achieved mainstream success as a recording artist, while Miranda and Madeline appeared alongside their father on the Netflix sitcom "Real Rob."

Miranda also played a role in Schneider’s 2022 film "Daddy Daughter Trip." The movie was written and produced by Azarcoya, underscoring her role as more than a supportive spouse and highlighting her own creative contributions. The film included cameo appearances by Elle King and Madeline Robbie, turning the project into a family affair.

Before marrying Azarcoya, Schneider was married twice. His first marriage was to model London King, with whom he shares Elle. He later married Helena Schneider in 2002, a marriage that ended in divorce in 2005.

Each of Schneider’s relationships has unfolded under public scrutiny due to his longstanding career in comedy and film, particularly through his work with Adam Sandler and his starring roles in comedies throughout the late 1990s and 2000s.

Professional Collaboration With Azarcoya

Azarcoya, a television producer and writer, worked closely with Schneider during their marriage. She served as a producer on "Real Rob," the semi-autobiographical Netflix series that offered a fictionalized glimpse into their home life and marriage.

Her involvement in Schneider’s creative projects positioned her as an integral part of his professional life, not just his personal one. Their collaborations often emphasized family dynamics, making the divorce a notable shift both personally and professionally.

What Comes Next

As of now, no further details regarding custody arrangements or financial settlements have been made public. Neither Schneider nor Azarcoya has issued a public statement addressing the filing.

The end of Rob Schneider and Patricia Azarcoya’s marriage closes a chapter defined by family collaboration and shared creative ventures.

As the divorce proceeds, attention will likely turn to how both navigate their professional paths separately, especially given their history of working together and raising children in the public eye.
