Jennifer Aniston is "rock" for hospitalised Selena Gomez

"She's just like a little cherub that I feel like I wanna take care of." - by Belinda Wanis
  • 17 Oct 2018

Jennifer Aniston really is a good friend. The A-list actress has reached out to troubled singer and actress Selena Gomez to offer her support after the 26-year-old entered a psychiatric facility for treatment for mental health issues.

The actress shares the same agent as Selena and  has grown close to the former Disney star over the years. “She is very protective of Selena,” an insider told HollywoodLife.

It seems their friendship started when Selena was just 16-years-old when she admitted to fan-girling Jen at the Women in Film Crystal and Lucy Awards. "I was shaking! I ran into Jennifer in the bathroom and she goes, 'Hi!' My legs started to shake and I ran. I didn't know what to do because I freaked out.”

Then in 2014 Selena took to Instagram with a picture of her and Jen cuddling up together to declare her love for the Friends actress.

"I have not only been following her career as a fan since I was 8 and now get to watch her completely transform in her new movie Cake, I have gotten to have real conversations with such a real heart, made my entire year,” she wrote.

Jen confirmed the blossoming friendship at the premiere of Cake. “She's just like a little cherub that I feel like I wanna take care of.” Jen said. “She's been extremely supportive and wonderful."

Mood lol (I was looking at myself in the mirror -like an idiot!) Update: taking a social media break. Again. As much as I am grateful for the voice that social media gives each of us, I am equally grateful to be able to step back and live my life present to the moment I have been given. Kindness and encouragement only for a bit! Just remember- negative comments can hurt anybody's feelings. Obvi.

Selena then lent on the Friends actress when she discovered her ex, Justin Bieber, had got married.

“Selena gets a lot of love and support from Jen Aniston. They always make time for each other and stay connected with phone calls and texting even though their busy schedules often keep them on opposite coasts,” a source close to the singer revealed.
“Selena has had a tough year with her love life, relationships, health and career and Jen has always been a rock in her life. Jen gives her amazing advice and also listens to her when she needs a shoulder to cry on. Selena totally loves Jen and really values her friendship.”

Now with Selena getting help for her breakdown, Jen is making sure that Selena knows she’ll be there for her. 

“Jennifer is an extremely caring person. It hurts her heart to know that Selena is struggling like this and she is absolutely there to offer advice and support,” a friend of Jen’s reveals. “She sees Selena like a little sister and is doing all she can to help her.’
