“Celebrating this powerful, magical, mystical, interesting, interested, ferociously talented girl today!!!” the post began.

“My sweet CC @courteneycoxofficial…she’s funny like no other, STUNNING on the inside and out. Independent in the most gorgeous way, cares for everyone even if she doesn’t know you.

“Terrified of dogs even though I’ve never known her NOT to have at least two of them.”

“Fiercely loyal to the end,” she continued.

“She’ll redecorate a room like nobody’s business. Spot a smudge on a window from a mile (literally) away. She doesn’t care what other people think!! I can’t imagine a world without her. It’s one of my great honors to call her one of my best friends for life…Happy happy birthday CC. I love you!”

REMEMBERING MATTHEW

The special bond between the Friends cast is no secret.

They reunited in 2021 for a special in which they reflected on their time on the show.

The cast also presented a united front after the shocking death of co-star Matthew Perry in October 2023.

The actor was found dead in the jacuzzi at his Los Angeles, California, home.

His cause of death was revealed in December 2023.

It was ruled that it was caused by the acute effects of ketamine, a dissociative anesthetic used to treat depression.

Jennifer recently sat down opposite actress Quinta Brunson for an Actors on Actors interview.

During the talk, the Cake star was asked about Matthew’s death.

Upon hearing the question, Jennifer began to tear up.

“Oh God, Don’t make me cry!” she said in a shaky voice.

“You’re already crying,” Quinta said.

“Do you want a minute? We don’t have to talk about [it.]”

Jennifer leaned back, trying to suppress her tears.

A producer handed her a tissue.

The actress insisted that she did want to talk about it but needed a chance to gather her thoughts.

“These are happy tears,” she maintained.

When she was ready, Quinta shared with Jennifer that the beloved comedy show was turning 30 in 2024, noting its impact.

She added that it was “one of the best shows on television.”

“It’s so strange to even think that it’s 30 years old,” Jennifer exclaimed.

During the interview, she recalled how on premiere day, she and Matthew had lunch together and decided to prank their Friends castmate Lisa Kudrow.

Jen said she was getting her hair colored so she stole the nozzle from the hairdresser and started washing Lisa’s hair.

“It definitely flew out of control,” she joked.

“It was unfortunate, but, the excitement we had and it feels like yesterday.

“The fact that it’s had this long and wonderful life and it still means a lot to people is one of the greatest gifts I think all six of us could ever imagine.”

Jennifer also noted that she and her costars still keep in touch.

“It’s a family forever,” she said.

Friends also starred Matt LeBlanc and David Schwimmer.
