“The Drew Barrymore Show” Got Shit For Giving A High School Teacher And His Alleged Former Student Their “Fairytale Wedding”

November 24, 2020 / Posted by:

Last Friday Drew Barrymore and The Drew Barrymore Show threw a surprise wedding for a Connecticut couple. The bride, Selina, thought she was on the show to discuss being a frontline nurse and postponing her wedding due to the pandemic. But Drew and Dan, the groom, secretly planned an in-studio wedding officiated by Dan’s sister, with all their friends and family Zooming in from home. Awwww. But there’s a hitch (wedding pun): On the show, Dan and Selina claimed they “met several years ago in school through mutual friends”. But, according to online commenters, they actually met because Dan was Selina’s high school physics teacher. Like, when she was an underage teen. Record scratch.

“It would be a great story if it was actually true. They met ‘in school’ because she was his student. The mutual friends was the physics class he taught,” wrote one commenter on YouTube. “Could CBS not find a couple whose relationship didn’t begin completely inappropriately?” asked another. “I just hope he’s more observant of his marriage vows than he was of the law when he started dating her.”

Other commenters acknowledged Dan was their physics teacher back in high school and congratulated the couple on their nuptials. Sigh. There’s a Dan at every school. Ours was the chemistry teacher.

 

Here are the videos (hmmm, I wonder when they’ll get pulled down) of Selina getting surprised with the wedding, and the wedding itself:

Ugggghhh. The sad part is Selina the bride is a frontline nurse who seems really sweet, and now she’s embarrassed the world over because Dan may have groomed her as a teen and then surprise-married her on The Drew Barrymore Show. 

So far neither the couple nor The Drew Barrymore Show has responded to the allegations. But Drew clearly needs to hire a better researcher. Or she could go undercover as a teen (Never Been Kissed-stylez) and catch pervs on hidden camera sex traps like they do on Maury:

It would surely guarantee her a second season!
