Freddie Prinze Jr. Previously Detailed How Their Romance Started
Freddie Prinze Jr. and Sarah Michelle Gellar initially held 'completely different philosophies' in life.
The couple first met on the set of the 1997 film I Know What You Did Last Summer. Over the years, they developed a deep bond that stood the test of time.
Prinze Jr. previously spoke about their relationship in a 2020 interview with Us Weekly.
“She didn’t have a driver’s license. She didn’t know how to drive,” he began.
“And we were shooting in Southport, North Carolina, which was an hour’s drive from the nearest Wilmington, which was the biggest city that was closest to us. … So, I started driving her, and that’s when her and I became friends,” he said.
Freddie Prinze Jr. said that he wanted to cook for for Sarah Michelle Gellar during the earliest days of their friendship.
He also explained that the two of them had “completely different philosophies on just about everything," which made him want to befriend her more than anything else by the time filming for I Know What You Did Last Summer wrapped.
He also revealed that he thought “she was too skinny and I wanted to cook for her. Because that’s what my family does.”
“And so, we started this weekly barbecue thing at her house, and me and my cousins would come over and cook food for her and her friends. And then we’d make sure everybody ate, and that was kind of how our friendship began,” he added.
