Drew Barrymore stopped by to chat with the women of "The View" on Friday, and discussed marriage and motherhood.
Barrymore, who married art dealer Will Kopelman (son of Chanel CEO Arie Kopelman) seven months ago in a traditional Jewish wedding, shared her experience being married to a "nice Jewish man" from a "nice Jewish family."
While Drew testifies that she "hasn't converted yet," she revealed that she and her husband are planning to raise their baby daughter Olive, who was born five months ago, "traditionally Jewish."
In addition, Barrymore said that her wedding was also traditionally Jewish, "we had a very traditional wedding ceremony," said Barrymore, "with Rabbi Rubinstein (Kopelman's rabbi), and I did the ketubah, and we wore the yarmulke and were under the chuppah!"
As for her view of Judaism, Barrymore said, "I'm there, I love it. It's a beautiful faith and I am so honored to be around it, its so family-oriented and beautiful and I learn so much and the stories are beautiful, it's incredibly enlightening I'm really happy."
