Tom Green
In 1999, Tom Greene and Drew Barrymore got together. By 2000, they were in love and happily married. Unfortunately, this time around love faded quickly again and the couple filed for a divorce in 2001.
But that is not the end of it, the couple did reunite over 15 years later on Barrymore’s show.
In the episode, Barrymore said “You’ve had a whole life and I’ve had a whole life, and it’s just really nice to come together and check in and talk about it. It thrills me to no end. I think the world of you and I celebrate you and I always have and I always will.”
Fabrizio Moretti
This was perhaps one of Barrymore’s longest relationships. The couple started dating in 2002. She gave an interview to Harper Bazaar and said “The longest I’ve ever been with someone was, like, two to three years, so I’m in uncharted waters.”
She also added that “Right now, I’m more into championing him as a human being than gushing love for him.” That is perhaps not the best words to say about your partner. They ended up breaking up in 2007.
Justin Long
The celebrities’ lucky stars connected in 2007 but they ended up parting ways one year later. However, it seemed that they “long-ed” for each other as they started dating again in 2009. This was before they did He’s Just Not That Into You and Going The Distance.
Explaining the relationship, Barrymore said “Justin and I, we were together at a time when the stakes were low. We weren’t thinking about marriage or children. We were just having fun.”
Will Kopelman
Barrymore took a year’s break after the breakup with Long. However, love found its way to her heart again, this time with the former CEO of Chanel Will Kopelman. They started dating in 2011 and were married in 2012.

Barrymore Swore Off of Men
In one of the interviews on her show with Jane Fonda, Barrymore said she related to the 82-year-old’s comment about having “sworn off men.”
In the interview, Barrymore said “I think I’m there and have been there for the last five years. Why am I here, why are you here, what’s happening?”
However, Fonda said that Barrymore was too young still. She also added that she had made the comment after realizing that her life was fulfilling enough without having a romantic partner.
Barrymore agreed and said, “I’m not closed for business but I have been in exactly that mentality for the last five years thinking, I just don’t have the bandwidth, I just can’t fit it in.”
Her fans hope that she does not give up on the idea of love and that she finds someone who is right for her and will be there for her.
