Courteney Cox shares epic throwback post with Jennifer Aniston in sweet tribute

Jennifer Aniston received heartwarming birthday wishes from her cherished Friends co-star, Courteney Cox, as she celebrated her 55th birthday. 

Courteney took to Instagram to share a nostalgic throwback photo of the duo, complemented by a clip from their beloved 1990s sitcom that holds a special place in her heart. 

In her post, Courteney humorously highlighted a memorable scene where Jennifer's character, Rachel, laments over a seashell lamp that Monica, played by Courteney, "accidentally" breaks, showcasing the unique charm Jennifer brings to her role. 

Responding with affection, Jennifer playfully commented, "You BROKE IT! I love you," echoing the fondness and camaraderie shared between them.

Courteney affectionately referred to Jennifer as "Jenny Louise" in her birthday message, expressing her deep love despite the playful nickname's origin remaining a mystery. 

Jennifer also marked the occasion with a reflective post, sharing a selection of photos from her illustrious career and personal milestones.

The week leading up to Jennifer's birthday was also marked by a delightful reunion with David Schwimmer, her former on-screen love interest from Friends, for a Super Bowl 2024 Uber Eats commercial. 

The ad humorously played on Jennifer's forgetfulness, with her failing to recognize David despite his hints about their decade-long collaboration.
