In October 2022, Drew announced that she had not been intimate since her split from Will in 2016.
She shared the candid detail on her blog with her talk show host, adding that her “view on sex has really changed” since their split.
She wrote: “At almost 48, I have very different feelings about intimacy than I did growing up. I didn’t have exemplary parents and I engaged with people in a grown-up way from a young age!’
She added that through intercourse, she was “looking for companionship, validation, excitement, pleasure, hedonism, fun and adventure.”
The mother-of-two wrote that since she doesn’t have a “time machine” or a way to “change” her story, she said she chooses to “look at it through a positive lens.”
“After two children and a cautious breakup with her father, I’ve had the pleasure of shifting my focus in terms of loving myself and my two daughters. I know that doesn’t include a man and hasn’t in a while.’
Drew added that her therapist told her, “Sex is not love! It is the expression of love.”
“I’ve been looking for words like this all my life to help me understand the difference and now, thanks to him, I’ve found it. And since I came into life as a single mother, it has not been possible for me to have an intimate relationship.
She said that while she could “get into a relationship” in the future, it “just wasn’t” her priority.
“I’m not a person who needs sex and needs to get out there and engage with people at that level. I’m someone who is very passionate about how young girls, my daughters and myself as a woman should function in this world!’
