Heartwarming Celebrity Friendships That Withstood The Test Of Time

Ashley - April 4, 2023

Meghan Markle & Serena Williams

You may not expect the Duchess of Sussex and a tennis player to be besties, but these two are smashing friendship stereotypes left and right! They were brought together during the 2010 Super Bowl before Markle became royalty, and their friendship was instantaneous. Megan discussed their friendship on her now-defunct blog and said, “We are both the same age, have a penchant for hot sauces and adore fashion, but what connects us more than those things is perhaps our belief in exceeding expectations – our endless ambition.”

BJ Novak & Mindy Kaling

BJ Novak and Mindy Kaling met in 2004 as writers for the hit comedy series The Office. At one point, their friendship did turn to romance, but when that didn’t work out, the pair easily went back to their super close and super platonic relationship. Kaling said this about their relationship during an interview with InStyle in 2015, “He is not my boyfriend, but he is not my best friend. I guess you could describe our relationship as a ‘romantically charged camaraderie with loud arguments,’ but I don’t think Facebook would accept this as a new status.”

Their friendship never became strained despite Madonna’s impressive rise to fame. While they couldn’t have their traditional weekly girl’s night after a while, they still made an effort to find time for each other, and the pair remains close to this day!

Will Smith & DJ Jazzy Jeff

Will Smith and DJ Jazzy Jeff met at a house party in 1985, and their instant connection led to the formation of their hip-hop group, “DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince.” The friends released their first album, “Rock the House,” in 1987 and released four more albums before Smith’s career took off and their group took a backseat. Jeff began working on solo music projects once Smith hit it big as an actor, and the pair have remained close friends despite their careers going in different directions.
