Drew Barrymore on pregnancy: 'Yes, it’s happening, it’s true'

Drew Barrymore is speaking out about her second pregnancy, which was revealed over the weekend when she stepped out and debuted a growing baby bump under a flowy dress.

The Grey Gardens star, 38, explained that she kept the pregnancy a secret for as long as she could, but she wants to be open about it this time because of the abundance of attention she received the first time when she was pregnant with her 13-month-old daughter Olive.

“Last time I never commented on it and people just stalked me the entire time,” she told People. “So yes, it’s happening, it’s true. I tried to keep it a secret for as long as possible.”

She added, “When I found out I was overjoyed. It always feels so surreal, it’s incredible. [I'm feeling] incredible, that ‘Here we go again‘ feeling. And blessed. Blessed! You’re so lucky to get to do it. It’s such a miracle. I just felt really lucky.”

Barrymore went on to say that she and her husband, Will Kopelman, wanted their daughter Olive to have a sibling.

“Will is just thrilled — we both are — [because] we just wanted so badly for Olive to have a sibling,” she said. “In some ways, it’s really for her. So congratulations, Olive!”

Barrymore couldn’t hold in the news anymore after being spotted at the LACMA Art+Film Gala honoring Martin Scorsese and David Hockney on Saturday.
