Rees Witherspoon and Ellen DeGeneres had a “fight” over who is a closer friend of Jennifer Aniston. The “Legally Blonde” actress was a guest on “The Ellen Show” recently, where she discussed a wide range of issues, including her pregnancy and baby rumors.

Back in February, Witherspoon and DeGeneres both attended Aniston’s birthday party, where they apparently danced with each other. DeGeneres asked the actress on “The Ellen Show” about who she thought was closer to Aniston.

Aniston and Witherspoon are really close, and the latter pointed out that they will be releasing a new show that they worked on together.

DeGeneres teased her guest by saying that it is “obvious” that she is closer to the “Friends” actress, and added that her guest is delusional about her being the BFF.

Witherspoon explained that DeGeneres can say she is close to someone like Oprah Winfrey because they live near each other and are really close. As far as Aniston is concerned, the actress said that what she has with the “Friends” star is something “special.”

DeGeneres later called Aniston during the show and put the phone on speaker for everyone to hear. She explained to her friend about her “fight” with Witherspoon and asked her to settle the matter for her. The “Marley and Me” actress said that she has already cleared that up and said that she and DeGeneres are closer.

Apart from the fight about Ansiton, DeGeneres also discussed rumors about Witherspoon being pregnant. The “Big Little Lies” actress joked that she’d probably have about 70 kids by now if all these rumors about her pregnancy were true.

The magazine that shared the rumor about the pregnancy had also claimed that DeGeneres was planning to start a family with wife Portia de Rossi. The TV show host also denied these rumors.

Meanwhile, Witherspoon is busy promoting the new season of “Big Little Lies.” Her new show with Aniston is titled “The Morning Show,” and she revealed that it will be released sometime in the fall. The actress said that she will be meeting people to discuss making “Legally Blonde 3” as well.
