25 Years & a Secret?! Jennifer Aniston's Reese Witherspoon SHOCK!

After 25 years of friendship, Jennifer Aniston was stunned to learn Reese Witherspoon's real name isn't actually Reese! The revelation came during a lighthearted episode of LADbible's "Do You Even Know Me?" where Witherspoon quizzed Aniston on her middle name.

The Big Reveal: Laura Jeanne Witherspoon

The initial question was about Witherspoon's middle name – Jane, Jeanne, or Joan. Aniston guessed Jane, but Witherspoon corrected her: "It's Jeanne. That's confusing. I'm Laura Jeanne."

Aniston's reaction was priceless. "Laura Jeanne?" she exclaimed in disbelief. "That's my real name, yeah," Witherspoon confirmed. The "Friends" star, completely taken aback, jokingly asked, "Who's Laura? What? Who the hell's Laura? Wait, Laura Jeanne, like I’m not calling you that from now on."

Reese's Origin Story

Witherspoon went on to explain that 'Reese' is her mother's maiden name and also her middle name. She shortened her moniker to Reese before her acting career took off. This led Aniston to playfully compare her to Marilyn Monroe, whose real name was Norma Jeane Mortenson. Witherspoon confirmed, "Yeah, like Laura Jeanne Reese."

The exchange highlighted how even close friends can have surprising secrets. The actresses, co-stars on "The Morning Show," proved that after all this time, there are still fun facts to discover about each other. Aniston even revealed her own middle name, which is Joanna.

This funny anecdote shows that even after decades of friendship, there are always new things to learn about the people we think we know best!
