From her breakout role in E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial to a career spanning decades in acting, producing, and hosting, Barrymore’s latest openness marks a new chapter of authenticity and self-discovery.
Her romantic life has often unfolded publicly. In the 1990s, she was engaged twice and briefly married bar owner Jeremy Thomas, reflecting the struggles of balancing early fame with personal growth. In the 2000s, she had another short-lived marriage to comedian Tom Green before marrying Will Kopelman in 2012. Together, they welcomed two daughters, Olive and Frankie. Although their marriage ended in 2016, Barrymore and Kopelman remain dedicated co-parents, prioritizing mutual respect and family stability.
Barrymore has long spoken candidly about the challenges of dating while raising children. On The Drew Barrymore Show, she often reflects on her past relationships—sometimes with humor, sometimes with heartfelt nostalgia—emphasizing the lessons each chapter brought her.
What sets Barrymore apart is her perspective: rather than framing her past as failure, she embraces it as part of her growth. Her honesty, humor, and courage have resonated with audiences worldwide, reminding us of the power of authenticity and the beauty of embracing one’s true self, even under the weight of public scrutiny.
