Drew Barrymore recently shared a bold and unforgettable story of revenge on an ex-boyfriend who cheated on her. During a candid conversation on The Drew Barrymore Show, the actress revealed the unique steps she took to confront both her unfaithful ex and the woman he had been seeing.
Barrymore explained that after discovering the betrayal, she first took all of her ex’s belongings and placed them in his car, rolling it down his driveway before walking away. But that was just the beginning of her plan. “Then I made the girl he was cheating on me with meet me for drinks with him sitting there,” she recalled. “I was like, ‘You’re gonna sit here and you’re gonna listen to the two of us talk! So shut up and listen!’”
The confrontation didn’t end there. After the drinks, Barrymore drove her ex home and told him, “Now get out.”
While she didn’t name the ex, she emphasized that they’ve since mended their relationship and are now “dear friends.” She also defended their past actions, saying, “We were young and stupid! I did dumb things too!”
SZA, who was a guest on the show, was impressed by Barrymore’s revenge tactics, calling it “fire” and admitting she was “deeply inspired.” However, when it came to Barrymore’s philosophy on exes, SZA joked that “time doesn’t heal,” to which Barrymore responded, “Time passes, baby.”
This isn’t the first time Barrymore has revealed her fiery side. In a past episode, she admitted to vandalizing the car of another cheating ex as a teenager, spray-painting it before denying any involvement when he called her the next day.
Despite her bold actions, Barrymore now maintains positive, platonic relationships with all of her exes, focusing on personal growth and understanding over time.
