This isn’t the first time Aniston has publicly shown love to her longtime friend and costar.

Back in February, The Morning Show actress honored Cox in a joint speech with Lisa Kudrow as she received her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

"We're very honored to be here today to speak on your behalf as your co-workers, your friends, and your family, your sisters," Aniston said. "And that's happened since we've known you for a very long time."

She gushed, "To be friends with Courteney is to be family with Courteney. She is responsible for all of that. From the beginning of when we met her, she was immediately inclusive, warm, loving, interested in everything about you."

"As fans we want to thank you for making us laugh," Aniston concluded. "Watching you on screen and just in life in general, you're one of the funniest human beings on the planet Earth. Nothing makes me happier than a Courteney joke and always making us smile and thank you for enriching our lives with your work. We are so proud of you, we love you, you're sisters from another mister and we love you."
