Inside Jen & Sandra's 30-Year Friendship

Jennifer Aniston and Sandra Bullock could've easily ended up as Hollywood rivals - but instead they're each other's biggest fans!

A few days before Thanksgiving, Jennifer Aniston invited close pals over for her annual "Friendsgiving" celebration. Among this year's famous attendees? None other than Sandra Bullock.

The woman Jen affectionately calls Sandy or Sand-a-la has been a trusted confidante for three decades and life's adversities have only reinforced their bond along the way. "Sandra was a rock for Jen when she was going through her divorce from Justin Theroux," reveals an insider of the 2017 split, adding that the Friends alum also "stepped up" after the Blind Side star's longtime partner, Bryan Randall, passed away in 2023 following a long battle with ALS. "A lot of people run away during hard times, but not these two." Of course, they've had plenty of jovial moments, too.
