Jennifer, 52, said that she had a conversation with Ross prior to their character’s first kiss.

‘Honestly, I remember saying one time to David, ‘It’s going to be such a bummer if the first time you and I actually kiss is going to be on national television,’ Jennifer said. 

‘Sure enough, first time we kissed was in that coffee shop,’ Jennifer noted.

Adding: ‘So we just channeled all of our adoration and love for each other into Ross and Rachel.’
