However, we were like two boats passing each other. Each person always had their own relationship and never crossed the line. We respected that,” Schwimmer said in the episode.
Aniston also admitted her feelings in an interview with Howard Stern later: “We never had the right moment to come together. We put our personal feelings into playing the two characters Ross and Rachel. My co-stars can testify that there was nothing between me and Schwimmer.”

After the movie, the couple remained close friends and often met on major holidays such as Christmas and New Year. Schwimmer divorced photographer Zoe Buckman in 2017 and has a child together.
