This week, one fan wrote, regarding the Food Network alum: "Fantastic!! I look forward to seeing more of her." Another added, in a recent thread: "Wow that’s awesome! I love me some Drew and Val!" An additional user commented: "Oh, this is a great idea and good fit on Drew’s show!" Someone else concurred, noting: "Congratulations to Valerie!!! What fun this will be!"
Earlier this summer, Bertinelli chatted with People about joining Barrymore’s cohort of talent. "I'm going to be a part of The Drew Barrymore Show. I'm going to be part of Drew Crew, and I'm super excited about that,” the mom of one dished to the outlet.
Over the years, both the 50 First Dates star, 49, and the One Day at a Time alum have won the hearts of their fans by candidly revealing their sincere experiences, both on their shows and through social media channels.
“I absolutely adore her," Bertinelli went on, regarding Barrymore. She added: "And all the people that work there are so flippin' cool." Bertinelli, whose nine-year tenure with Food Network concluded in January, shared with the magazine that her summer has been "busy" as she manages her forthcoming ventures.
In April, during the fourth season of The Drew Barrymore Show, Bertinelli memorably graced the stage with a remarkable presence. Prior to the segment's filming, she made her first public appearance with her boyfriend, Mike Goodnough, as many fans may recall. Engaging in a heartfelt conversation, she discussed themes of love and delved into her cookbook, Indulge, with both Barrymore and RuPaul's Drag Race judge, Ross Matthews.
“I'll be going to New York a lot to hang out with Drew and see where that takes me,” Bertinelli also shared with People.
The much-anticipated fifth season of the Emmy award-winning series debuts on September 9th, showcasing host Barrymore alongside Matthews, 44, celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton, entertainment journalist Zanna Roberts Rassi, and others.
