On December 22, 2024, Tom joyfully announced his engagement to his girlfriend, Amanda. This news quickly stirred reactions online, with people curious about Amanda’s age and making playful comparisons, suggesting she might resemble his daughter or even his granddaughter.
Tom shared a series of lovely photos and a video on Instagram highlighting this significant life event. The images depicted Amanda’s excitement, notably showing her sparkling engagement ring. One photo showed the couple sharing a passionate kiss, Amanda resting her hand on Tom’s chest to prominently display her engagement ring.
Amanda also delighted followers with a beaming selfie, again showcasing her beautiful ring. In a wintry scene, her joy was evident, her hand proudly displaying the symbol of her upcoming marriage.
In a video clip, Amanda’s happiness was unmistakable as she laughed heartily, expressing love for the ring and stating, “It’s so pretty.” Tom remarked, “You look happy,” to which Amanda responded enthusiastically, “I am so happy.” Their happiness seemed to fill every frame, the engagement ring a focal point in all images.
Reactions from fans varied from humorous to sincere. Comments ranged from “You’re never too old to find someone half your age to marry I guess,” to questions about Amanda’s exact age. Observers noted a significant age gap, some saying things like, “22 years since Drew…looks like a 22-year age difference with his new fiancée.” Others poked fun, suggesting, “I’m happy for your Granddaughter,” and comparing Amanda to Tom’s daughter.
Despite the comments, support poured in for Tom, with fans expressing joy at his new chapter. “I love Tom Green. I’m so happy for him,” one admirer wrote, adding that they believed Drew Barrymore would be happy too.
Tom and Amanda share an interesting connection, as both hail from his birthplace of Petawawa, Canada. They come from Canadian military families and even attended the same elementary school. The couple’s mutual love for the countryside further solidifies their bond.
Tom, having spent twenty years in Los Angeles, has returned to Canada and now lives on a vast 150-acre wilderness property and farm, delving into a quieter lifestyle. His days are filled with the company of horses and the tranquility of nature.
Amanda maintains a private Instagram presence, with a focus on wellness and personal transformation. Among her achievements is a remarkable 115-pound weight loss. As a personal trainer, yoga instructor, and nutrition coach, she advocates for health and well-being.
Tom’s marriage to Amanda marks his second venture into matrimony. His previous marriage to Drew Barrymore, which began in 2001, concluded the following year. When talking about Drew, Tom expressed fondness: “Drew is a wonderful woman. I love her very much.” Though their marriage didn’t work out, he wished her the best in life.
In 2020, Tom rejoined Drew virtually on “The Drew Barrymore Show,” marking their first interaction in almost twenty years. Their reunion showcased a lingering respect and fondness, with shared memories of their time together.
During a 2021 episode of “The Drew Barrymore Show,” they physically reunited on the “Drew’s News” segment, joyfully recalling fond memories. Their reminisces spanned their entire relationship, even their honeymoon. This signaled a sweet end to their chapter.
Tom is now excitedly forging new memories with Amanda, embarking on a vibrant new journey filled with happiness and love, marking an uplifting, hopeful phase in his life.
