“Sarah Michelle dumped my ass,” he quipped. “Sarah Michelle took one look at me and was like, ‘I got to get away from this drunk,'” the actor, who is a recovering alcoholic, said.

“Oh my gosh. She was like one and done. Literally like one date. She was like ‘Well, that was fun.'”

According to O’Connell, the “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” alum “needed a date to the Emmys” and that’s where he came in handy — but they never went out again.

“I see her and her husband, and her husband is like a black belt in jiu jitsu — so please, I don’t want any beef with these people,” he joked, referring to Gellar’s longtime husband, Freddie Prinze Jr.

“Beautiful family though. I see her in the neighborhood and it’s very fun.”

Although Gellar, 49, and O’Connell, 52, weren’t a match, they both went on to find their right partners and have families of their own.
