'Friends' Reunion: Cast Might Not Be Complete After Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox Fight
Joey, Phoebe, Ross, Rachel, Monica, and Chandler will finally be back in the upcoming 'Friends' reunion on NBC for a two-hour special on Feb. 21. While millions of fans are already holding their breath, all the cast members might not be on stage after rumors started circulating that Courteney Cox and Jennifer Aniston are fighting.
Cox, 51, and Aniston, 46, have been close friends even after the show ended in 2004. However, it is now rumored that the two are no longer in speaking terms. The feud was said to blow out of proportions when Aniston and husband Justin Theroux invited their close friends to their home in Tellluride, Colorado. Everyone was present except for Cox, reported Hollywood Life.
"Jen didn't invite Courteney to Telluride on purpose. Courteney feels incredibly betrayed by Jen. She's really hurt that her best friend hasn't been there for her," an insider told Life&Style.
Their fight reportedly began when Cox broke up with Snow Patrol band member Johnny McDaid last December 2015 and her gal pal Aniston was not there to support her. The Rachel apparently wasn't too pleased of the separation because she met her husband through McDaid.
"Jen said some really insensitive things. She told Court she was being 'difficult' with Johnny, who had wanted to work things out. It really ticked Courteney off," the insider claimed. "Jen just isn't there for Courteney. It's really sad."
As of press time, the two have yet to comment on the issue even after NBC announced the "Friends" reunion last Wednesday at the Television Critics Association's press tour in Pasadena.
NBC Entertainment Chairman Robert Greenblatt told the press (via Entertainment Weekly): "I'm hoping all six will be in same room at same time; I'm not sure we can logistically pull it off."
The upcoming episode will serve as a tribute to comedy director James Burrows who helmed 15 episodes of "Friends" However, with the rumored feud between Jennifer Aniston and Courtney Cox, will all of the cast members still be on board for the reunion? Stay tuned for more updates.
