Were Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry, and David Schwimmer Actually ‘Friends'?
Insider Makes Surprising Claims
Insights from a close source suggest that the camaraderie among Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry, and David Schwimmer may not have been as strong off-screen as it appeared on the iconic '90s TV show Friends.
A recent disclosure from a reliable insider sheds light on the real dynamics between these famous co-stars, adding a complex layer to our understanding of their relationships.
Paul LeBlanc, Matt's father, has made some significant claims regarding his son's experiences with his Friends castmates.
During an interview with Radar Online, Paul shared intriguing details about Matt and his time on the set of Friends.
Paul and Matt had a falling out three years ago, and during this period, Paul revealed that Matt had a great time working on Friends.
He described it as a transformative experience for both Matt and the entire crew.
“He had fun, that's for sure,” Paul stated.
“It was the making of him and the entire crew, really.”
In a surprising revelation, Paul suggested that Matt had intimate moments with his co-star Jennifer Aniston in their private dressing areas during breaks from shooting.
However, Aniston has vehemently denied these claims.
Paul also commented on Matt's relationships with Matthew and David.
According to Paul, Matt did not particularly like Matthew off-screen and even had moments where he wanted to physically confront him.
“He wanted to pound on Matthew a couple of times,” Paul claimed.
Regarding David, Paul mentioned that Matt found him to be overly serious and less lively compared to Lisa Kudrow, whom he genuinely appreciated.
Despite these claims, Paul believes that the tensions among the cast make a Friends reboot highly unlikely.
A spokesperson for Matt LeBlanc has strongly denied all allegations made by his father, urging fans to take his comments with caution.
Contrary to Paul's claims, evidence suggests that Matt had a friendly relationship with all his Friends co-stars.
In a 2015 interview with People, Matt described the Friends cast as an extended family.
He referred to Courteney Cox and Lisa Kudrow as his big sisters, Jennifer Aniston as his little sister, Matthew Perry as his little brother, and David Schwimmer as his big brother.
It is worth noting that Schwimmer, Cox, and Kudrow are older than Matt by a few years, while Aniston and Perry are slightly younger.
In 2016, Matt spoke warmly about Perry, mentioning that they could easily reconnect even after years apart.
He emphasized the enduring nature of their friendship, stating that he remains in frequent contact with all his Friends co-stars.
Despite this close bond, it is interesting to note that Matt, Matthew, and possibly David were not invited to Aniston's wedding to Justin Theroux in 2015.
