When their characters Chandler Bing and Monica Geller finally began dating after four seasons of Friends, fans could not have been more excited for Matthew Perry and Courteney Cox. But for Matthew, the onscreen romance was the result of years of him secretly petitioning writers to hook Chandler up with Monica after he fell in love with her 26 years ago.
According to our insiders, it was the set’s worst-kept secret that Matthew had harboured a barely concealed crush on his gorgeous co-star ever since meeting her in 1993, the year before their 10-season sitcom took over the world.
ONSCREEN CHEMISTRY
“Matt was bowled over by Courteney, from her good looks to her wicked sense of humour,” says a show insider. “His feelings for her were written all over his face, and he was thrilled when it was finally decided that Chandler and Monica should get together. The chemistry you saw on screen was real – for him at least.”
