Almost 24 years since the first Friends episode aired on our screens, Lisa Kudrow is opening up about a very special time on the set of the beloved show. During a recent sit down with People, the actress described how the cast embraced her pregnancy [1] while they were filming, and it'll probably make you really emotional.
"The six of us would do a huddle backstage and just say, 'All right, have a good show, love you love you love you love you,'" Lisa recalls. "And when I was pregnant, then they would say, 'Have a great show, love you love you — love you, little Julian!' Because we knew it was a boy and that was his name." She adds: "So sweet, they included my little fetus in the huddle!" Aw!
Fans of the series will recall that in seasons four and five Lisa's character, Phoebe Buffay, acted as a surrogate mother for her brother Frank and his wife Alice. Her son Julian Murray is now 20 years old, and I truly hope he knows how lucky he is to have been part of such a lovable group of friends [3].
