He shared that since then, he learnt how to maintain his composure in front of co-star crushes. He also revealed that he was so fond of Jennifer during his pre-teen that he was even teased for it on the set. He mentioned that as a child, he used to stammer in front of the actor and forget his lines. Although he shared that sometimes he did so to get her attention and is not embarrassed about the same. He added that the whole world had a crush on her and it was valid enough for him to behave in such a way. Cole said that he was teased by the cast of FRIENDS right in front of Jennifer.
Cole will soon be having a reunion with the FRIENDS cast and relive his crushes for Jennifer Aniston. The reunion is set to air later this year. Lisa Kudrow made an announcement recently on Twitter saying that the reunion was definitely happening as she shot some scenes.
