Drew Barrymore Considering Converting To Judaism
January 27th, 2013 8:32am EST
Drew Barrymore is considering converting to Judaism for her family after deciding to raise her baby daughter in her husband Will Kopelman's faith.
The Charlie's Angels star donned a yarmulke when she married art consultant Kopelman in a traditional Jewish ceremony last June and now Barrymore reveals she's thinking about formally becoming a member of his religion so little Olive, who was born in September, can be raised in a proper Jewish household.
During an appearance on The View on Friday, she said, "He is a nice Jewish man from a nice Jewish family. I do the Seders (holiday feast), and we do Passover. I haven't converted yet, (but) Olive will be raised traditionally. And we had a very traditional wedding ceremony with Rabbi Rubinstein and I did the ketubah (prenuptial agreement), and we wore the yarmulkes, we were under the chuppah (wedding canopy).
"I'm there. I love it. It's a beautiful faith and I'm so honored to be around it. It's so family-oriented and beautiful and I learn so much and the stories are so beautiful. And it's incredibly enlightening. I'm really happy."
