The nanny was also ordered to payback the $48,000 that HP Production (Adam's company)had paid her under the settlement and cover HP's more than $33,000 in attorney fees.
Scott is not much seen in the media, apart from a few appearances during red carpet events of Adam's movie projects. For instance, he attendedAdam Sandler Footprint Ceremony at the Chinese Theatre in California in May 2005.
And if you didn't know, Scott was the one who gave his younger brother Adam the perfect career advice to pursue acting. At the time, Adam was juggling several jobs and couldn't make up his mind, and asked Scott for advice. He retrospected,"I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. So I asked my brother what I should major in – he said acting, and that's how it started."
Not only Scott helped Adam with advice, but he also supported his younger brother with finances.According to the LA Times, Scott helped his brother Adam win a legal dispute against a nannywho took care of the actor's children and accused his company of slavery.

An Instagram handle with username @sandva12— that seemingly belongs to Valerie— suggests that she prefers an EDM lifestyle and is a student of biology and linguistics.
