Former Friends star Courteney Cox and David Arquette had been leading separate lives for years.
As far as her friends were concerned, Courteney Cox had it all. A successful career, a loving husband and even a much-yearned-for family after finally giving birth to daughter Coco in June 2004.
But behind the brazen facade of fame and fortune, the stunning star was hiding a secret – her seemingly perfect marriage to fellow actor David Arquette was, for a long time, in tatters.
Though she offered relationship advice to her eternally single best buddy Jennifer Aniston, Courteney’s marriage effectively ended two years ago. While she managed to keep their separation secret, the truth unravelled last week when David was spotted with Jasmine Waltz, a 28-year-old cocktail waitress who bears an uncanny resemblance to his wife.
This forced the estranged couple to release a statement confirming a “trial separation that dates back for some time”. Now Woman’s Day can reveal Courteney and David have in recent years had an open relationship, living in separate houses and employing a firm “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy when it comes to other lovers.
David, 39, confessed to the arrangement on a popular US radio, opening up about the relationship and dishing deeply private details of their sex life.
