One of Drew Barrymore‘s daughters recently “spent days in the E.R.” after being involved in an e-bike accident in France.
The actress and talk show host, who’s mom to 12-year-old Olive and 11-year-old Frankie, revealed that she had to cancel plans with Stephen Colbert and his wife, Evelyn McGee-Colbert, after one of the girls was injured.
“She’s fine, yes, everything’s fine,” Barrymore said on “The Late Show” on Thursday. “My daughter, actually, she got in an e-bike accident in France, which sounds so fabulous. Yes, we were in fabulous France and then she had an e-bike accident.”
Without specifying which daughter had the accident, Barrymore explained she was “a mile out in the mountains and ripped her whole elbow open.” She said she was amazed that her daughter had the wherewithal to use her bra and turn it into a tourniquet before being rushed to the E.R.
“That’s just who she is,” she said. “I just marvel at her.”
The Golden Globe Award winner shares Olive and Frankie with ex-husband Will Kopelman, whom she married in 2012. The former couple have remained on good terms despite going through a “painful” divorce in 2016.
“You’re never not together if you have children,” she said about co-parenting on her eponymous talk show in 2021.
