Jennifer Aniston rang in her 57th birthday on February 11 surrounded by her loved ones – especially her beau and longtime Friends pals and co-stars.
Courteney Cox, 61, kicked off the celebrations with a nostalgic throwback from their Friends day. The Instagram snap, part of a carousel honouring her Aquarius crew (including Laura Dern and Isla Fisher), showed the two actresses in their sitcom era – all 90’s glow and best friend energy.
“Apparently Geminis like Aquarians! So many birthdays this month,” Cox wrote in her caption. “I’m so lucky to have these ‘air’ heads in my life.”
If that didn’t already have fans emotional, Reese Witherspoon added another layer of throwback magic.
The Morning Show star posted a playful Instagram Reel that opened with a classic Friends still of Aniston and Witherspoon as Rachel and Jill Green. The caption read, “When someone mentions growing up together like we don’t know ball.”
The video then jumped to a present day shot of the duo as Bradley Jackson and Alex Levy on The Morning Show, cheekily captioned, “We know ball.”
Witherspoon kept the sentiment heartfelt in her message: “Happy Birthday @jenniferaniston! From the Green sisters to news anchors, our conversations and laughter never stop,” Witherspoon captioned her post. “Your love of life, your humor, and your endless positivity are such a gift. I feel so grateful to know you on and off screen. Love you, Jen.”
