Drew Barrymore insisted Martha Stewart was only joking when she pushed her away for being too touchy during an interview.
Andy Cohen asked the 49 year old “50 First Dates” star about last year’s viral moment with the lifestyle maven, 83, when she appeared on “Watch What Happens Live” Wednesday.
“You know what? I think she was just teasing,” Barrymore said, to which the Bravo host agreed.
The actress explained that she has come to the understanding that Stewart “really does like” her.
“I think the internet just misunderstood the moment and ran with it, because when I first was getting to know her, I was like, I don’t think she likes me, but I think I broke through. She doesn’t dislike me!” she added.
The awkward interaction first made headlines in November 2024 when Stewart appeared on “The Drew Barrymore Show.”
