Drew Barrymore’s ex-husband Tom Green engaged to lookalike of ET star and gives her massive diamond ring
Drew Barrymore’s ex-husband Tom Green is engaged to someone who looks like a dead ringer to his famous ex as the new fiancee showed off the massive diamond ring.
The 53-year-old funnyman took to his Threads account on Sunday to share his happy news 22 years after divorcing the 49-year-old ET star who recently addressed being ‘so touchy’ on her chat show.
Tom shared several cute snaps of his new fiancee Amanda showing off her new ring featuring a large diamond.
He captioned the post: ‘Big news! Amanda and I are engaged! I am the luckiest guy in the world. I love you Amanda. Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas from us to all of you! [four red heart emojis]’
Tom did not give any details about his new fiancee including her last name, however, a rep for the Freddie Got Fingered star told People magazine on Monday that Amanda grew up in his hometown of Petawawa, Canada.
Tom’s rep also told the weekly that the two had both been raised in Canadian military families and even attended the same military school as kids as they share a love for ‘the country life.’

Tom was famously married to Drew from 2001 to 2002; the two are seen together at The Oscars in Los Angeles back in 2000
The star recently moved back to Canada after living in Los Angeles for over two decades as he purchased a 150-acre wilderness property and farm where he raises horses.
Their relationship timeline is unknown as it remains unclear when they first began dating but the first time she appeared on his social media was a post on his Instagram from back in June.
At the time, he shared snaps from a snowy mountain vacation with the caption: ‘Thank you to my amazing girlfriend Amanda for the fun times out west that was an adventure!’
Since the summer, he has routinely posted tributes to his partner but has tried to keep their relationship and her personal details as private as possible.
Tom was famously married to Drew from 2001 to 2002.
Back in September 2000, the former couple reunited for an interview on her talk show The Drew Barrymore Show which was new at the time.
The Charlie’s Angels star took a walk down memory lane with her former beau after admitting it had been nearly 20 years since their divorce, and ’15 years’ since they last spoke to each other.
Drew recalled a happy time where she understood ‘what safety and contentedness feels before you’re going to sleep’ at Tom’s family lake house.

‘You know when you say 20 years, it’s sometimes it’s the blink of an eye, and sometimes you’re like, “Oh my God, we’ve lived so much in these last twenty years.” You’ve had a whole life and I’ve had a whole life,’ she said.
‘It’s just really nice to come together and check-in and talk about it, it just thrills me to no end. I think the world of you and I celebrate you and I always have and I always will.’
Tom and Drew were married on July 7, 2001 after a whirlwind romance. They filed for divorce in December 2001 citing irreconcilable differences.
‘It’s been too long, it’s nice to reconnect,’ Tom said. ‘We really did not talk for about 15 years I guess and this is really the first time we’ve looked at each other face-to-face in 15 years.’
Drew remembered how the former couple first met in 2000 when she was filming and producing Charlie’s Angels.
‘One of the things that means so much to me professionally also is because one of the reasons we got to know each other in the first place was I admired your work so much and so I reached out to you and asked you to come and do Charlie’s Angels and you so graciously said yes,’ she said.
The Freddy Got Fingered star recalled that the pair ‘hit it off right away pretty much’ with their shared love of having a good time.
‘We had a lot of laughs together,’ he said. ‘I think one of our first dates, I think we went and bought lobsters because we both love animals and we both got lobsters and we released them into the ocean. That was what we decided to do.’

Drew remembered that Tom was the catalyst in her love of photography.
‘You bought me a camera and I still have it the Pentax K1000 and you got me started into what would become two decades full of being a real photographer and you got me into my whole Annie Hall phase of taking photographs which is such a beautiful art,’ she said.
Not one to forget a priceless collectible, Tom whipped out a personalized mug with a picture of Drew in a neck brace.
‘It’s been too long, it’s nice to reconnect,’ Tom said. ‘We really did not talk for about 15 years I guess and this is really the first time we’ve looked at each other face-to-face in 15 years’

‘I found this mug in my garage a couple of years ago and I just kind of kept it because I figured someday I might be on your TV show and it’d be fun to have a sip out of your mug,’ Tom said.
‘Remember the day in NY, you were doing yoga, you sprained your neck and then Chris went and made these mugs and somehow I kept the mug all these years. I kept the mug’

Drew admitted she was ‘so happy’ too see Tom again after all of these years.
‘Yeah we had a lot of amazing experiences and I am grateful for that and I cherish them. Thanks Drew I appreciate it,’ he said.
