Courteney Cox Calls David Arquette Her Best Friend

Despite having filed for divorce, Courteney Cox still refers to her ex-husband David Arquette as her best friend. How sweet! It’s good to see celebrities getting along with the utmost regard for their child, as have Courteney and David. What a really amicable way of being apart…

The former couple called it quits in 2010, but ended up filing for divorce in 2012 and Courteney says that she still loves him. In a new interview with Ellen DeGeneres, she said, “He’s my best friend in the world. I love him. I appreciate David more now than I ever did. I mean, it’s hard…. I don’t recommend divorce in general, but, you know, he is my best friend and we’ve both grown and changed.”

She went on to say, “I think we both appreciate each other more. I hope he does. I do.”

Since becoming single, Courteney said that her co-stars on “Cougar Town” have tried to help her find someone new. When he was asked who he would choose for Courteney to date, Brian van Holt pointed at Dan Byrd and jokingly said, “She loves this man right here, she likes the cerebral hunk type.”

Her other show co-star Busy Phillips said, “A couple of people have asked me who I would set Courteney up with. I think she is a homebody and if Courteney had her way she would never leave her house, so she does need a partner who will bring her out and just tell her she has no choice and, make her go out into the world. She prefers everyone to come to her beautiful house, and by the way if my house was as good as hers I’d never want to leave it.”
