In an interview with Jimmy Fallon on Tuesday (February 2), the 45-year-old actress opened up about reconnecting with her ex after not speaking with him for 15 years. Their emotional conversation aired on The Drew Barrymore Show in September.
Drew explained to Jimmy, “There were no questions prepared for that. I had an offline conversation with him because we didn’t want it to be some bougie Hollywood moment, like, ‘Let’s reconnect in front of the cameras.’”
Drew and Tom began dating after she reached out to him about starring in Charlie’s Angels. They got engaged in July 2000 and married a year later. They ended up splitting in December 2001.
“The thing I love about Tom is he is one of the first people to put a camera on his life, when it was a giant, fat camcorder and there were no easy phones available,” Drew told Jimmy. “His stuff was on VHS, I remember watching his VHS tapes. It’s what gave me the idea, because I just said, ‘Gosh, would you just want to reconnect? It’s been a long time and I would just love to honor what you did. You broke down all these doors, you were a pioneer. And I would love to talk about it and have it be an excuse for us to say hello.’”
“That’s the tone,” Drew continued. “I sent him a video and then he sent me one back. And immediately, he made me laugh and that’s my kryptonite, laughter.”

“I’ve had two nights of great sleep in my life before my daughters were born. I don’t know why but sleep is like, it’s just been like a weird thing for me. I remember this night just being so content,” Drew said while tearing up. “And I was at your parents lake house and I remember hearing all their voices upstairs and I was just by myself and I was going to sleep and I was like, ‘Yeah this is what safety and contentedness feels before you’re going to sleep.’ And I will never forget that night and I love your parents and I really love you and I celebrate you. You know when you say 20 years, it’s sometimes it’s the blink of an eye, and sometimes you’re like, ‘Oh my God, we’ve lived so much in these last twenty years.’ You’ve had a whole life and I’ve had a whole life. It’s just really nice to come together and check-in and talk about it, it just thrills me to no end. I think the world of you and I celebrate you and I always have and I always will.”
