David Schwimmer has responded to rumours he’s dating Jennifer Aniston.
Earlier this week, Closer magazine reported that the former co-stars had grown close since filming the Friends reunion special earlier this year.
A source told the outlet: “After the reunion, it became clear that reminiscing over the past had stirred up feelings for both of them and that chemistry they’d always had to bury was still there.”
“They began texting immediately after filming and, just last month, David flew from his home in New York to see Jen in LA.”
“They’ve been spending time at Jen’s home, where she’s cooked dinners in the evenings, and have enjoyed quality time together, chatting and laughing,” the insider continued.
“They were also spotted drinking wine, deep in conversation, as they walked around one of Jen’s favourite vineyards in Santa Barbara, where it was clear there was lots of chemistry between them.”
Sadly, a rep for David Schwimmer has since told HuffPost UK that the report is untrue.
Jennifer and David played on-screen lovers Rachel Green and Ross Geller in Friends, which aired from 1994 until 2004.
During the reunion special, which aired in May, the former co-stars admitted they had a connection off-screen during the early years of filming.
David told host James Corden, “I had a major crush on Jen,” before Jennifer confessed, “It was reciprocated.”
David then said: “We were both crushing hard on each other, but it was like two ships passing. One of us was always in a relationship and we never crossed that boundary.”
Jennifer added: “I remember saying one time to David, ‘It’s going to be such a bummer if the first time you and I actually kiss is on national television.’ And sure enough, it was.”
“We just channelled all of our adoration and love for each other into Ross and Rachel.”
