Why Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr. Ordered Pizza for Their Family Thanksgiving Dinner

Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. had an unforgettable Thanksgiving abroad.

While appearing on the Tuesday, Dec. 10 edition of Live with Kelly and Mark, Gellar, 47, opened up about how her family celebrated the holiday. She revealed that they were in Australia, as Prince Jr., 48, was filming the I Know What You Did Last Summer reboot.

"Well, first of all, it’s warm. So there’s the plus right there. And we had these great plans. Freddie was working and we were going to all have dinner. It was going to be Jen [Jennifer Kaytin Robinson], the director," recalled Gellar.

"We were in a car, it was my daughter Charlotte, who’s 15 ... and Rocky and Freddie were in another car. And it rained, which, it does rain in Australia," said Gellar. "But for some reason, it shut the world down."

According to the actress, who met Prinze. Jr on the original 1997 horror film set, the weather caused them to be stuck in a tunnel for almost an hour.

"Tunnels don’t freak me out… [but] by the time we got out of the tunnel, it was so late. And I was like, 'Ugh, guys, I can’t even eat anymore.' So we ordered pizza," she said.

After host Kelly Ripa expressed that she loved the fact that Gellar had pizza on Thanksgiving, Gellar said, "There’s nothing wrong with pizza, ever."

"They do pretty much good everything. The coffee is out of control in Australia," said Gellar.
