Drew Barrymore Gushes Over Ex Justin Long And New Fiancee Kate Bosworth: ‘Ultimate Couple’

Drew Barrymore has swooned over Justin Long’s relationship with Kate Bosworth. Having a chance to do a sitdown with her ex-boyfriend’s new fiancee, the host of “The Drew Barrymore Show” offered her reaction to the couple’s engagement as she called them the “ultimate couple.”

In a clip from a Thursday, May 11’s episode of her talk show, Drew could be seen having Kate as a special guest. During their talk, the 48-year-old actress told the audience that she and the “Superman Returns” star have “a very important person in common.”

Drew, who dated Justin on-and-off from 2007 to 2010, continued, “My very dear old friend Justin Long – a boyfriend, a dear friend – and he and Kate have found each other in this world.” She went on to praise, “[You’ve] become this incredibly joyous, bonded, real deal.”

“…you holding hands, ultimate couple you root for. Period,” Drew went on to shower Justin and Kate with compliments. In return, Kate responded, “That’s so sweet. He loves you so much. He just loves you so deeply.”

Elsewhere in the clip, Kate opened up about the moment Justin informed her about his invitation to be Drew’s guest for her talk show. Revealing how she took the news, she told Drew, “I was with him when he got the ask and he’s like, ‘Oh, Drew wants me to go on her show,’ and I was like, ‘You have to do it!’ I was so excited.”

On the reason behind her excitement, Kate explained, “I was so excited, because I knew there’s so much love between the two of you. So much, yes fun and like wild – I always say you guys were in the tornado together, right?”

“It’s like the time in your life when you’re like, ‘I want to feel and I want to do everything,’ just like be a part of the adventure in a wild way, which is so much fun. He just loves you so much,” she added.

Justin himself, who confirmed his engagement to Kate on April 4, made an appearance on “The Drew Barrymore Show” back in September 2022. At the time, he proved that he and Drew remained good friends despite their breakup. “I love that we’ve maintained our love. I don’t think I’ll ever… now I know from my end it’ll never go anywhere I’ll love you always. I will always love you so much,” he stated.
