For years, whispers of a feud between Jennifer Love Hewitt and Sarah Michelle Gellar have circulated in Hollywood. Now, the truth behind their rumoured rivalry has come to light.
The Origins of the Rumours
The speculation began in the late 1990s when both actresses were at the height of their fame. Hewitt was starring in Party of Five and I Know What You Did Last Summer, while Gellar was the beloved Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Reports suggested tension arose due to their overlapping careers and competition for roles. However, neither star publicly acknowledged any animosity.
What Really Happened?
Contrary to the rumours, sources close to both actresses reveal there was never any real feud. Instead, their busy schedules and the media's tendency to pit young female stars against each other fueled the narrative.
"They barely crossed paths professionally," an insider shared. "The so-called rivalry was entirely fabricated by the press."
Where Are They Now?
Today, both Hewitt and Gellar have moved on to successful careers and families. Hewitt stars in 9-1-1, while Gellar has focused on producing and her food business, Foodstirs.
Despite the old rumours, there's no evidence of bad blood between the two. In fact, they've both laughed off the speculation in recent interviews.
