See Your Favorite Exes From ‘Friends’ Then and Now

Over the course of 10 seasons, we watched our favorite 'Friends' date (and date, and date), often with disastrous and hilarious and heartwarming results. It's hard to believe the show ended 10 years ago, and to celebrate the anniversary of the ending of one of the greatest sitcoms of all time, we're revisiting the dating history of Monica, Chandler, Joey, Rachel, Ross, and Phoebe. Join us as we take a look back at some of their most memorable significant others, and see where those actors are now.
