Monica and Chandler are not dating in real life, but that hasn't stopped fans excitment

Monica and Chandler are dating in real life, apparently.

According to a single “source” who spoke to US magazine Star, the actors Courteney Cox and Matthew Perry are “hooking up” following the break-up of Cox’s engagement to Snow Patrol singer Johnny McDaid.

Disregarding the validity of any such “source”, social media users have lost all self-control over the rumours. In particular, people have been sharing this tweet:

The photo of Cox and Perry actually dates back to 2005, when Cox was married to David Arquette – hence the rather sizeable wedding ring on her finger. The couple separated and then amicably divorced in 2013.

Another anonymous source told Entertainment Today the pair are not dating, confirming the rumours were totally “untrue”. Still, that has not stopped some people:

The pair worked together on sitcom Friends, which made both actors’ names during its 11-year run. Cox, 51, and 46-year-old Perry appear to have remained close following the end of the series, with Perry guest starring on Cox’s show Cougar Town.
