Ashley Loren Played Rob Schneider’s Daughter in ‘Grown Ups’
One of the reasons why some people might think that Ashley Loren is Rob Schneider’s daughter is because she played his daughter in the 2010 comedy film ‘Grown Ups’. The movie starred Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Chris Rock, David Spade and Rob Schneider as five childhood friends who reunite for a weekend after their high school basketball coach passes away.
Ashley Loren portrayed Bridget Hilliard, the eldest daughter of Rob Hilliard (Schneider), who has three daughters from three different marriages. Bridget is a vegan and an activist who often clashes with her father’s lifestyle. She also has a crush on Eric Lamonsoff (James), one of her father’s friends.
According to Celebrities Buzz, Ashley Loren got the role of Bridget by chance. She was still in high school and doing college courses in Studio City, California, when she dropped out to start shooting in Boston. She initially did not audition for the role of Bridget, but the actress who was chosen could not make it. The director suggested Loren to Sandler, who asked her to imitate a dialogue in Schneider’s voice on the spot. He liked her performance and gave her the role.
Loren said that she was intimidated to act among big stars at first, but they made her feel welcome and comfortable. She also became close with David Spade, who played Marcus Higgins, another friend of her father.

She also studied acting at the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts and the John Robert Powers acting school in New Orleans. She moved to California at 19 to pursue her acting career.

He has a brother named John Schneider, who is a producer, and two sisters named April Schneider Bancroft and Deanna Schneider.
