“Ex’s & Oh’s” singer Elle King “never in a million years” thought her rant about her famous father Rob Schneider would go viral, but she doesn’t seem too keen on patching up any of the obvious holes in their relationship either.

Elle King, the "Ex's & Oh's" country singer, is opening up about her complex relationship with on-again, off-again estranged dad Rob Schneider.

After Elle King recently made headlines when she discussed her strained relationship with her father, comedian Rob Schneider, on Bunnie Xo's 'Dumb Blonde' podcast, she exclusively tells PEOPLE "I never in a million years thought that that was going to go viral.

"Sometimes you have to just say things and get them off your chest so that you don't have to carry it for the rest of your life," she said.

Elle King says she wasn't 'trying to hurt' her famous dad with her viral comments, but she doesn't regret them, for one important reason.
