Back to 2000, the Friends set was their starting point, and from there, this dynamic duo crafted a rock-solid friendship. On screen, they have played sisters at odds and work rivals, but behind the scenes, it is all about a friendship knitted with awe and mutual regard.

In the whirlwind of Friends mania, rumors started buzzing about some tension brewing between Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon on set. The gossip mill spun tales about the swift entry and exit of Rachel Green’s sister, Amy. Moreover, it hinted towards some behind-the-scenes drama. But, both the co-stars were quick to shut down those rumors, denying any bad blood between them. Despite Witherspoon’s plans to return for more episodes, it seemed fate had other ideas.

It is when Christina Applegate swooped in for the role. However, these Hollywood powerhouses proved the naysayers wrong by teaming up for The Morning Show in 2019. This showed everyone their friendship was rock-solid. Reese Witherspoon even gave fans a nostalgic treat by posting an old Friends moment on her Instagram, sealing the deal on their epic bond.
