Rob Schneider has spoken out following daughter Elle King’s revealing interview on the Dumb Blonde podcast earlier this week, during which she accused him of sending her to “fat camp,” forgetting her birthdays and being generally absent from her life as a child.

In a new clip posted by Tucker Carlson on Wednesday (Aug. 14), the Saturday Night Live alum issued a direct public apology to the “Ex’s & Oh’s” singer, whom he shares with former model London King, his ex-wife.

“It’s fun being a parent, isn’t it?” he quipped when the conservative commentator first broached the subject of Elle’s comments, before getting serious. “I want to tell my daughter, Elle, I love you. 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,” Schneider continued, staring directly into the camera. “I love you completely, I love you entirely. I just want you to be well and happy, you and your beautiful baby, Lucky. I wish you the best. I feel terrible, and I just want you to know that I don’t take anything you say personally.”

“All I want is for her to be happy and to heal from this,” the Hot Chick star added to Carlson.

The interview clip comes just two days after King told Bunnie XO on her Dumb Blonde podcast that she goes years at a time without speaking to her father, adding that she doesn’t like to be associated with him because “he’s just not nice.” “My dad called me and was like, ‘Don’t f—ing talk about me in the press,’” she added on the podcast. “I was like, ‘Get f—ed.’”

The singer-songwriter also emphasized that she doesn’t agree with Schneider’s controversial political views and recalled how she once “got in trouble” for not losing any weight while suffering from a sprained ankle. “I was a really, really heavy child, and my dad sent me to fat camp,” she continued. “My dad forgot every single birthday.”
