Barrymore has been open about her dating life throughout the years, even inviting ex-boyfriend Justin Long onto her show last month to talk about their “hedonistic” relationship, which was on and off from 2007 to 2010. “I love that we maintained our love, because, I know from my end, it will never go anywhere,” Long told Barrymore. “I’ll love you always. I’m glad we’re still able to have that.”
Barrymore responded through tears, “I will always love you so much. You are so important to me. I feel like we’ve been through so much together, too. I feel like, when we used to talk and FaceTime, I was always like, ‘You know I’ve really grown up, Justin.’ I always wanted to prove to you what a different person I was from when we dated.”
The two exes agreed that they will always have love for one another, even as Long moves forward in his relationship with Kate Bosworth. “I’m just so happy because you deserve to be happy. I’m so thrilled for you,” Barrymore told Long, who assured her that Bosworth “adores” her. “She is the most supportive, most wonderful. You would love hanging out with her,” he said.
