Lily Collins Gushes Over Engagement To Charlie McDowell With Drew Barrymore

Lily Collins says she’s the luckiest after getting engaged!

The 31-year-old Emily In Paris star appeared on The Drew Barrymore Show on Wednesday (October 7) and gushed over her engagement.

“I am a fiancée,” Lily said. “I am the luckiest. I am so grateful and I just truly feel like the happiest I’ve ever been. I am very very lucky.”

Lily also opened up about how her Instagram followers inspired her 2017 book “Unfiltered: No Shame, No Regrets, Just Me,” and being the daughter of a famous parent – her dad is musician Phil Collins, if you didn’t know!

“It gave me such a drive to want to feel like I deserved to be where I am,” she told Drew Barrymore. “There is a saying, ‘Personality can open doors, character keeps them open.’ It’s like for a certain amount of time a last name could be something that’s interesting but at the end of the day you’ve got to bring something to the table. Yeah, I maybe had to grow up a little quicker but I was also exposed to the pros and cons at an early age and I still chose it for me.”
