In an era predating the MET Gala’s and award shows’ current reign as hotbeds for unexpected celebrity encounters, Friends emerged as the ultimate catalyst. However, it is the enduring connections forged between the show’s stars, Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon, that remain iconic to this day. The duo that first appeared on screen as the quarreling sisters actually had an even more unpredictable encounter behind the scenes.

While the audience mostly remember the bizarre happenings of what went down when Rachel Green, Aniston, discovered her sister, Jill Green, played by Witherspoon, was hiding a dirty little secret from her, the actress’ had a more puzzling encounter off-screen.

Jennifer Aniston could not beleive this about Reese Witherspoon

While it is almost impossible to notice, Reese Witherspoon when she guest starred on Friends was a new mother. Nor only was it impossible to notice on camera, but seems like it was hard to tell off-screen as well. In an interview dating back to 2019 with Harper’s Bazaar, Reese Witherspoon had revealed that Jennifer Aniston appeared the most shocked at the revelation. “You have a baby?” Aniston had said with bewilderment.

After the intial surprise, Aniston worked her sweet charm on Reese Witherspoon. The actress comforted the new mother and told her that there was no reason to be nervous. This among other things cemented the Legally Blonde actress’ admiration for her Friends co-star. The friendship that Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon shared not only helped them deliver one of the most iconic episodes of Friends, but also one of the most entertaining shows in recent years, The Morning Show.

After premiering in 2019 with the Friends actresses, The Morning Show now eagerly has fans waiting for a fourth season.

When will The Morning Show Season 4 be released?

The Morning Show was renewed for its fourth installment in April, long before season 3 was premiered. The show in its first two seasons was nominated for 11 Emmy award, and won even more hearts. Perhaps it was the star power of Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon, the spectacular writing of the show, or seeing the actor’s play realistic characters, but the show has hit almost as great of a chord with the audience as Friends.

While it has done exceptionally well, The Morning Show has been facing a drop in viewership ratings. Fans suspected that this might hinder with the renewal alongside the SAG-AFTRA strikes. However, Apple TV+ has assured fans that a season four will surely be released on the platform. Despite the drop, the show will go on for Season 4 as it was confirmed by Apple TV+.
