The romance didn’t work out for Courteney Cox and David Arquette, but the Cougar Town star still has plenty of love for her ex – as a friend.

"He’s my best friend in the world," the actress says on an episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show airing Monday. "I love him."

Months since the former couple both filed divorce papers citing irreconcilable differences in June, Cox says, "I appreciate David more now than I ever did."

Birthday boy

Bradley Cooper didn’t necessarily have the wildest of birthday celebrations, but his special day certainly didn’t go unnoticed.

The Silver Linings Playbook star, who turned 38 on Saturday, was greeted by a slew of fans chanting happy birthday when he arrived on the red carpet at the 24th annual Palm Springs International Film Festival Awards Gala in Palm Springs, Calif.

After being honored with a Desert Palm Achievement Award presented by Playbook director David O. Russell, People’s former Sexiest Man Alive was given a shoutout by host Mary Hart, who insisted the entire room sing Happy Birthday to the actor.
