Drew Barrymore is dishing on her earliest romance.
During Friday’s episode of her titular talk show, the 46-year-old actress chatted with Scrubs stars Zach Braff and Donald Faison, the latter of whom shared that he first met Barrymore through his Clueless costar Breckin Meyer.
“When I first moved to Los Angeles, Breckin, Paul Rudd, and Alicia [Silverstone] took me to Jones and we met you that night,” Faison, 46, said. “I met you through Breckin and every time I’ve seen you since then I’ve always been like ‘I know Breckin!’ “
An excited Barrymore then revealed that Meyer was actually her first boyfriend. “Breckin Meyer, aka Travis Birkenstock, was my first boyfriend in like grade school,” she said, referencing his character’s name in Clueless. “I love Breckin.”

Last September, the talk show host opened up to PEOPLE about what it was like growing up in the entertainment industry, and how she got to where she is now.
“I started [in this industry] when I was in diapers,” she said. “At 13, it was that sad sob story. And then I picked myself back up. I’ve been married, I’ve gotten divorced, I’ve raised myself, for better or worse. I have these two girls who are my entire universe. And it has all been out there.”

Barrymore went on to share why she’s an open book with her own life, but chooses to keep her daughters away from the spotlight.
“My life with my children, my feelings, that’s all on the table — but [Olive and Frankie themselves] are not,” she said. “Because of my life experiences, I’m not selling my brand on my kids. I won’t do it.”
“But to ignore that part of my life would make me an automaton,” she continued. “So it’s really inventive to figure out how to bring them into the omelet and fold it in, in a way that feels appropriate for me.”
