Country music artist Elle King recently spoke candidly about her strained relationship with her renowned father, actor and comedian Rob Schneider, during an interview on Bunnie XO’s podcast.  This disclosure has sparked a wave of criticism on social media.

Schneider, known for his conservative views and anti-LGBTQ stance, has a group of supporters who have taken to social media to attack the 35-year-old singer.  Some comments on social media have been particularly vitriolic, with users targeting King for her past struggles with alcohol and her claims about being sent to a weight loss camp by Schneider when she was young.

Despite the harsh words, there have been some voices of support for King.  One commenter expressed admiration for King’s stance against her father’s views, describing her as “America’s sweetheart.”

King, as reported by Variety, shared her disagreement with Schneider’s stances on LGBTQ issues and recounted her difficult childhood, which included being sent to fat camp and being forced to wear sweaters to cover her tattoos.

“He’s just not nice,” King said.

 “You can want someone to change so much.  You can’t control anyone else’s actions, and you can’t control people’s feelings.  All you can control is how you react and what you do with your feelings.”

King also faced controversy earlier this year when she performed at the Grand Ole Opry while under the influence, leading to a series of events that included an apology, the cancellation of several shows, and a subsequent appearance on Chelsea Handler’s podcast to discuss the incident.

“I had been going through something very heavy and traumatic in my life at the time, and that day was a really big day dealing with what I was going through, and I’m still going through, and I suffer from like severe PTSD,” King explained.

She also expressed her regret and the impact of the incident, saying she was “mortified” and wrote an apology letter to Dolly Parton, who was being honored at the Opry on her birthday.  Parton, according to King, was gracious and understanding, which King described as a kindness she would never forget.
