"And we hosted swing parties," he continued. "This was in the tabloids. And my favorite part of that happening was we got a lot of texts from other friends of ours saying, ‘How could you not have invited me to the swinger party?’
"They were teasing, of course, cause they know us and they know we're not hosting swinger parties," Shepard clarified.

Barrymore pointedly asked Shepard if there was any couple that he and his wife of over a decade had fantasized about engaging in extracurricular activities with.
"There's a lot of hot couples out there, but no we haven't. We have not crossed that divide with anyone," the "Buddy Games" star said.
