Jennifer Aniston has confirmed a long-standing rumor about David Schwimmer on live TV.
Friends is a popular sitcom about six close friends living in New York City and the funny things that happen to them.
They deal with work, love, and the problems of being an @dult, all while making us laugh and feel good.
Aniston and Schwimmer played Rachel Green and Ross Geller on the show for ten seasons, from 1994 to 2004.
The actress has now made an interesting disclosure about her former co-star.
Aniston talked openly about the ups and downs of their on-screen romance on an episode of Live with Kelly and Mark.
Viewers were fascinated by her on-screen on-off romance with Schwimmer, and many wondered if the chemistry between the two was real or just for show.
It looks like the answer has finally come to light.

This isn’t the first time they’ve talked about their relationship outside of the show.
In the Friends: The Reunion documentary, Schwimmer openly admitted to having a “major crush” on Aniston during the first season of the show, and the actress agreed with him.
“We were both really into each other at one point, but it was like two ships passing because one of us was constantly in a relationship, and we never passed that line. Schwimmer said, “We respected that.”
He said that during breaks in rehearsal, they would often “cuddle on the couch.”
As she continued, “We would spoon and fall asleep on the couch, and I kept wondering, ‘How did no one know we were crushing on each other?'” We couldn’t do anything about it.
Aniston said during an interview with Howard Stern, “He was great, David was great.” But no, we never got together in my life… We were in relationships, and it was never the perfect moment for us to be together.
But it seems like Aniston has finally put an end to one rumor…

In a video that has gone viral and gained a lot of attention on social media, Kelly Ripa brought up the particular topic. She made the observation, “In the early years, you [and Schwimmer] had a crush on each other.”
Aniston quickly confirmed the rumors by saying, “Yes we did.”
As the talk went on, Aniston went into more detail, stressing the difference between how they really felt and how they acted in the story.
“We just let it play out on TV,” she remarked, referring to how they handled their character’s relationship.
Ryan Seacrest, who is filling in for Mark Consuelos as co-host, wanted to know more about the disclosure, which gained traction.

Seacrest took advantage of the chance and said, “So, was your first k!ss on TV?”
Aniston said, “Yes.”
When Ripa asked if the encounter was strange, the conversation turned funny.
The actress said, “Well, no, it was actually quite fun,” and then she went on to remark, “Sure enough, the first time we k!ssed was in that coffee shop, so we just channeled all of our love and adoration for each other into Ross and Rachel.”
