Are you telling me, Ross and Rachel dated IRL?!
The highly-anticipated Friends reunion special has finally arrived on HBO Max, and though fans are disappointed that they didn’t get a brand-new episode of the 90s show but rather an off-the-table interview, the cast did share some *wild tidbits* about their time and experience on the long-running series. However, one bombshell that fans can’t stop talking about has to do with Jennifer Aniston and David Schwimmer.
It was revealed that the former costars were apparently crushing hard on each other during the first few seasons of Friends, although unfortunately, nothing came out of it. The actors played on and off couple Rachel and Ross for 10 years until the show ended in 2004.
Jen admitted, “Uh, well. I mean… David?” He said, Yeah,” before she confirmed, “The first season.”

As David explained,
“Yeah, the first season we—I had a major crush on Jen. At some point, we were both crushing hard on each other, but it was like two ships passing because one of us was always in a relationship, and we never crossed that boundary. We respected that.”
The Morning Show actress revealed:
“It was reciprocated. So, we just channelled all of our adoration and love for each other into Ross and Rachel.”
Friends fans have long speculated on whether the chemistry between Aniston and Schwimmer could have ignited real romance, though the two have never before confirmed a connection in such a direct way.
In the words of Monica Geller: I KNOW!
