Drew Barrymore – John Barrymore’s Granddaughter
Veteran actress Drew Barrymore has been famous ever since the time she learned how to talk. She belongs to the Barrymore acting dynasty and has become its last surviving member. Her Barrymore heritage can be clearly seen in her resemblance to her actor grandfather John, who had starring roles in a slew of films in the 1920s and 1930s.
Unfortunately, she also had the Barrymore propensity towards substance abuse. Her granddad John and her dad, John Jr., passed away due to complications associated with alcoholism whereas Drew herself completed rehab for alcohol and drugs at just 14 years old.
