AceShowbiz - Jennifer Garner couldn't be more thankful to have a friend like Reese Witherspoon. When attending Hello Sunshine's Inaugural Shine Away Event in Downtown Los Angeles, the "Yes Day" actress gave a shout-out to "The Morning Show" star for being by her side during a "very hard moment."
The 51-year-old attended the Saturday, October 21 event along with Reese and Mindy Kaling. During a panel discussion, she sai, "I think back to being pregnant. This one [Reese] was sitting next to me... I think back to going through a very public, very hard moment in my life. She was right there and the way I needed to get through it was dance cardio."
"And I danced cardio-d so hard, we broke her foot, but she kept going!" the ex-wife of Ben Affleck added. "It was like, OK, we worked out at seven on vacation, we're going to work out again at two. She was like, 'I'm going to be there. I'm going to be there.' "
Jennifer, who didn't reveal the difficult moment she was referring to, additionally credited Reese for giving her some sound parenting advice. "She'll also look at you and say, 'OK, you need to be finding a preschool. This kid is two and a half and they need to start next month. You actually have to get on this,' " the former detailed.
Not stopping there, the "Alias" alum also discussed how Reese had provided space for her and other actresses to be able to speak freely about their industry without being silenced or supervised. "Those meetings happened at Reese's house. And it was the first time I'd ever sat down with that many actresses in the same room that we weren't passing each other in an award show in big dresses, where we just sat," she recalled. "We've been siloed off the one place."
Back in April, Jennifer declared that she's interested in joining forces with Reese and Jennifer Aniston on "The Morning Show". After being asked if she would take up the opportunity if she was given it, she told Entertainment Tonight, "Of course! I would love to work with those ladies. Put me in, coach."
