Barrymore, the proud mother of Olive and Frankie from her previous marriage to Will Kopelman, shared with Us Weekly: "I’ve always spent the night with them on my birthday and their birthdays."

"We have a tradition, so I’m planning a night or two of sleepovers leading up to the big day, and I’ll be having a sleepover with my daughters on my 50th. The entire theme of my 50th birthday is centered around sleepovers. They should never disappear from our lives."

The star of 51st Dates reveals she feels more joyful and healthy than ever as she nears this significant birthday, according to femalefirst.co.uk.

Having gained fame at a young age with her role in the beloved 1982 sci-fi film 'E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial', she expressed: "I don’t think I’ve ever experienced happiness like I feel now, and I never imagined I’d reach this point."

The Charlie's Angels actress, who was married to Will from 2012 to 2016, added: "They are their own individuals."

"I’m not eager to dictate who they should become, but I sometimes feel it’s my role to help them understand how to behave, emphasizing that there’s no place for unkindness, lack of grace, or ingratitude. If I could prioritize one lesson, it would be for them to grow into kind, good-hearted, humble, and grateful individuals who feel secure."

Barrymore has garnered numerous accolades and nominations, including a Golden Globe Award, along with nominations for nine Emmy Awards and a British Academy Film Award. In 2023, she was recognized as one of the 100 most influential people globally.
