Ben and Erin Napier appeared on The Drew Barrymore Show today, giving us a celeb crossover event we couldn’t miss. While the HGTV duo chatted about all things design with cohosts Drew Barrymore and Ross Mathews, they also gave Drew some relationship advice.
After sharing that Ben and Erin are one of her favorite couples (and noting that what works for one couple doesn’t always work for all), Drew wanted to know how they keep their relationship so strong. She asked, “What is the Napier wisdom?”
“We overshare with each other,” Erin responded. Ben added, “We tell each other everything. And people say that. They say communication is key. We tell each other everything. I know it sounds elementary, but it really is.”
“We don’t have misunderstandings ’cause we know everything,” Erin said. “We have all of the information that is available.”
Ben and Erin aren’t the only ones who have discussed romantic relationships with Drew on her show. The actress has covered the topic with many guests, from Jane Fonda, who gifted Drew a vibrator on air, to Abbott Elementary‘s Lisa Ann Walter, who spoke with Drew about what she’s looking for in a partner.
The Napiers have been building a friendship with Drew ever since the three first met on her show in December 2021, and we’re here for it. Maybe Drew will guest star on Home Town or Home Town Takeover one day. We can dream!
Love knowing what your favorite HGTV stars are up to? Same. Let’s keep up with them together.
