David Schwimmer refuses to deny Friends reunion rumours: 'Maybe Matthew Perry is pregnant'

David Schwimmer has refused to quell rumours of an upcoming Friends reunion, deflecting a question by joking that co-star Matthew Perry could be pregnant.

Quizzed by Matt Baker and Alex Jones on BBC’s The One Show, Schwimmer remained coy about the prospect of a reunion, saying: “I’m so glad I finally get to answer this question.”

“I honestly, I really wish I could confirm or deny. I can’t. There’s nothing official to report, unfortunately”, he continued.

But Jones pressed the issue, asking: “But maybe?” 

“Maybe Matthew Perry is pregnant,’ Schwimmer replied, referring to a mysterious tweet by Perry that simply said: "Big news coming."

Many fans are desperate for a revival of the hugely popular sitcom, which ran from 1994 to 2004, and it looks like a reunion of some sort is finally on the cards.

Last October, Jennifer Anniston posted a photo of the six lead castmembers – Schwimmer, Perry, Lisa Kudrow, Courtney Cox, Matt LeBlanc and herself – on instagram.

Some reports have claimed that the reunion will take the form of a cast get-together, supposedly hosted by Ellen Degeneres.
