Actor Drew Barrymore couldn't hold tear when she met her ex-Justin Long on her self-titled chat show on Sunday. Drew Barrymore wept when she shared the stage with the 44-year-old actor, whom she dated from 2007 to 2010.

Both Barrymore and Justin were nostalgic about their overindulgent days, but Drew and her ex embraced one another before sitting together on the set to discuss their connection. "We have gone through a lot together," she said. According to the host, whenever they used to chitchat and video call, she would say that she had changed a lot and wanted to show him the difference she had made since they dated. She was the best, Justin replied.

It was chaos; it was hella-fun Justin agreed, "Fun chaos, well yeah, most hedonism is fun", when Drew said that they were more hedonistic and slightly naive; they would start dating, then split up, and then date again. That was "chaos," but that was "hella-fun."


Drew started the third season of her star-studded talk show in a powerful cream suit and soaring platform heels. Justin went for a navy plaid full-sleeved top paired with khaki pants and white sneakers.

Previously, Drew hinted to the media about meeting her former boyfriend, Justin Long, saying she couldn't wait to get started with him. "My former boyfriend Justin Long will be in the opening episode of season 3. We speak of merry times, we toast his beloved, and it will just be intimate. Positive thoughts on Drew's part have previously represented her time with Justin". She said on July's show that she didn't get why they were never associated as an exciting couple. To her, it didn't make sense. She couldn't care less if they weren't interesting.
