Yes, "Friends" cast members have been seen together on numerous occasions, either hanging out or supporting one another.


The lead cast members met when they were in their 20s and 30s; thus, they have seen each other struggle and celebrate, literally through thick and thin, as Matt LeBlanc was last to $11 when he joined Friends. From Courteney’s miscarriages to Perry’s alcohol issues, “Friends” were always there to support each other.


However, it has been eighteen years since the sitcom concluded, and since then, they haven’t had time to meet daily. Because, after Friends, or more accurately, during its run, cast members became global celebrities with a lot of work to do. Simply put, everyone got busy with few or no dinner dates and lunch gatherings.


A glimpse of how close they really are: Jennifer Aniston is the godmother of Courteney Cox’s daughter, Coco, born in 2004; David Schwimmer was very excited for the 2021 Friends Reunion; Perry and LeBlanc are often seen together during their free time; Lisa Kudrow and Cox were among those invited to Aniston’s wedding with Justin Theroux; etc. Thus, there is a complete list of who invited who and the gossip, but let's focus on major events regarding friendship among “Friends” cast members.


Who was invited to Aniston's wedding with Theroux?


In August 2015, Jennifer Aniston invited only Lisa Kudrow and Courtney Cox to her wedding to Justin Theroux. Even though they weren't invited, the guys couldn't complain about their favorite cast member. Approximately 70 people attended the intimate wedding. If Rachel wasn't upset that she wasn't invited to Monica's wedding, then Matthew, David, and Matt shouldn't be upset about Jennifer's guest list either.


To be completely honest, Brad Pitt and Aniston did invite the entire cast to their Malibu wedding in 2000. The only one who couldn't make it was Matt, as he was stuck on a movie set. These six friends have only been in the same room together twice since the show ended, despite the fact that there is no hostility between them.


Given that this has only twice occurred since 2004, it is understandable why Jennifer Aniston's first Instagram post caused such a stir online. Maybe some of the personal relationships that weren't as strong before got stronger again because of the reunion. So it makes sense why only a few of them were invited to the 2015 wedding.

Are Courteney Cox and Jennifer Aniston still friends?


Courtney Cox and Jennifer Aniston are best friends in real life, much like Monica and Rachel are. When significant life events or transitions occur, they support one another. For instance, Jennifer is the godmother of Courtney's child, and Courtney served as maid of honor at Jennifer's 2015 wedding.


The bond goes beyond honorable titles. Similar to how Monica took in Rachel after she and Brad Pitt split, Cox moved in with Aniston for the foreseeable future. Real-life issues are not references used in Friends, but to understand the friendship better, such examples do make sense.


Since then, Cox and Aniston have been practically inseparable and have maintained a strong friendship over the years, the few inconsistencies mentioned above are undoubtedly not a factor in their relationship. In fact, Courteney and Jennifer can be seen together during lockdown and the pandemic via their Instagram account handles.

How do the Friends cast members stay in touch?


The actors prefer lunch dates over coffee dates, which is how their characters preferred to stay in touch. The fans were ecstatic when Courtney Cox and Matthew Perry had a date, and Cox shared a selfie of the two of them on her Instagram page. This was especially true for those who believed that Monica and Chandler were the best couple in the sitcom.

It doesn't take much for the media to start speculating about whether or not the former coworkers are in a relationship. The media photographed Courtney and LeBlanc having dinner together in Los Angeles in 2016. They were not involved in a secret relationship, despite rapidly spreading rumors to the contrary.


The truth is that both of them were in separate relationships at the time, so these rumors are nothing more than idle chit-chat. Jennifer Aniston and Courtney Cox are supposedly really close, but Lisa is just as much a part of their lives as Phoebe was for Monica and Rachel.


A few years ago, the three Friends women mentioned having a group chat. It's possible that the group chat has since disintegrated because Courtney claimed she wasn't a big fan of texting. Or possibly they came up with a completely new one and decided to include the guys as well. Considering the impending reunion, they had plenty to discuss at that time.
