LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Jennifer Aniston is reportedly not happy with the closeness Reese Witherspoon and Nicole Kidman share.

The two actresses were recently seen together in a Vanity Fair video feature as they discussed a third season of their black comedy-drama television series ‘Big Little Lies’, where the camaraderie and closeness between them were evident, as reported by Closer Weekly.

To which, the ‘Eyes Wide Shut’ star replied, “Well, we see each other quite a bit so this is not like, ‘Reunited, and it feels so good!'”

The ‘Legally Blonde’ actress then revealed, “We see each other a lot in Nashville. We walk in the woods, we laugh.[We] figure out all the problems, solve all the problems, and then… ‘See you later!’”

Commenting on their bond, a tipster shared, “Reese and Nicole are so close. They’re in touch nearly every day, whether it’s just a simple text or a deep conversation, it’s gone way past a work friendship.”

They elaborated, “They’re not snobby about it but when they are in the same city, they really prefer to catch up one-on-one, and it’s hard for people not to feel left out.”

“They don’t mean any harm by it, and actually they do invite Jen along quite a lot of the time, but it’s not gone unnoticed by her that they’re thick as thieves,” the insider stated.

The source also mentioned that Aniston has “felt like the third wheel lately when she’s been in their company, and that’s got her a little down — no one likes to feel left out.”

The ‘Friends’ star and Kidman were co-stars in the 2011 romantic comedy ‘Just Go With It’ while the former worked with Witherspoon in ‘The Morning Show’ in 2019.



 

The mole disclosed, “Things were difficult with Jen and Reese in the early days of 'The Morning Show', but they patched it up and Jen was really optimistic it would lead to a much tighter friendship but it’s just become this rock-solid acquaintanceship versus the BFF situation that Reese and Nicole have.”

Another tipster spilled, “It doesn’t help that Jen looks up to Nicole and would love to see more of her too but Reese is hogging her.”

Netizens say Jennifer Aniston ‘is not the jealous type’

Meanwhile, some people commented on the actresses’ dynamics with a reader below an article commenting, “These are grown women -  not 12-year-old girls. Rest easy everyone their friendship is fine.”

“Oh please; not buying this story. Jen is not the jealous type. She is a very strong woman and literally has her own network of ‘Friends,’” another said.

One user commented, “I believe both Reese and Nichole are producers of big little lies, so they do have to interact more personally and professionally because of the big scope of the project. So Jennifer needs to understand that and move on.”

Another remarked, “Close friends ???  who told you that they were your close friends ???”

Stated one user, “Jennifer Aniston has many friends. She cares about her friends and she also loves Pets.”
