In an interview with Dax Shepard on his "Armchair Expert" podcast, actor and television host Drew Barrymore opened up about her ex-husband Will Kopelman's new wife, and why she's giving the couple "space."

"This incredible woman Allie [Michler], and I just feel like I won the lottery with her, like, I really did," Barrymore admitted to Shepard. "I feel like I'm lucky that there's this new beautiful soul that came into our lives." She even revealed she wants Michler "to be her best friend," and "absolutely worship[s] the ground she walks on." Barrymore also said she's "her biggest cheerleader." According to the star, Barrymore, Kopelman, and his wife frequently hang out and are "finding [their] way in a beautiful, slow, respectful manner."

Barrymore and Kopelman's daughter's Olive and Frankie were flower girls in their dad's wedding, and have built their own relationship with Michler. "I'm just so lucky because she came into Will's life and got to know my daughters very well and very real, saw all the warts and all the hearts, everything in between," Barrymore explained. "It's a miracle, and I know miracles exist because I was so devastated that our relationship didn't work out because I wanted this."
