About David Schwimmer

Did you know that our loveable "Friend" mate 'Ross' aka David Schwimmer, famous for his inexplicable fondness for prehistoric creatures and fumbled love affairs, actually restrained his love life to a lesser mess in real life? Schwimmer's uncanny knack for topping the divorce leaderboards in the hit sitcom "Friends" has had zero spillover effect into his off-screen life. Surprising, isn't it?

Our mate Schwimmer entrenched the iconic line in "Friends", "We were on ... a break!" referencing a tumultuous and recurring break-up with ‘Rachel’ played by Jennifer Aniston. While he may have gotten into numerous comic setbacks resulting in three divorces and kinds with multiple wives in the fictional world of Friends, in reality, he's only made his entry into the realm of divorce once.

Schwimmer and British artist Zoe Buckman announced their divorce in 2017 after a relationship journey peppered lightly with fewer dramatic events and absolutely no paleontological digs. But guess what! Plucky Schwimmer stowed away his marriage eulogy as he cheekily settled at zero-dollar-spent-in-divorce-court displaying those fine flamboyant "Ross" moves. The specifics of the settlement remain buried within a confidential bucket, coming out of which they won - no, not a casino on a quirky "Friends" holiday, but vast hours spending time co-parenting their beautiful daughter. Their amicable end may not be a gold mine of punch-lines, but most certainly veers away from the chaotic, dino-mite divorces of Ross Geller. Who says, life doesn't imitate art!
