Courteney Cox, "Friends" and "Scream" star, recently posted on Instagram celebrating Johnny McDaid's forty-fifth birthday while sitting on the set of the 1990's sitcom. In a post on July 24th, Cox stated that Johnny McDaid was both her "best friend" and "love."

"He's the kindest, most patient, best listener, curious, caring, not to mention talented and gorgeous partner. I love you jmd. x"

Courteney Cox and Johnny McDaid were previously separated before the post due to the pandemic, which led McDaid to remain in Europe. The two celebrated McDaid's 44ths birthday virtually, with Courteney Cox stating: "It's been 133 days since we were last together. Covid sucks. Happy Birthday, J."

Courteney's celebratory post was quickly met with over one million likes and two thousand comments, each wishing Cox's partner well wishes for his birthday. Fellow former co-star Selma Blair commented on the post, along with "Queer Eye" co-host Tan France.
