Jennifer Aniston is clearly enjoying her new Instagram account, and has been answering a number of fan questions about her time on the hit sitcom Friends.

The actor managed to break the social media platform upon joining, as users rushed to follow her account.

She has since begun interacting with her fans after posting her first photo, which showed her reunited with former Friends co-stars Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry, Lisa Kudrow, David Schwimmer and Courteney Cox.

One of the earliest and perhaps biggest questions came from one fan, Kaitlyn, who wanted to know what Aniston thought had happened to Ross and Rachel.

“Well,” Aniston replied. “We’re on a break.”

Her reply referenced the notorious excuse by Schwimmer’s character Ross Geller, who cheated on Rachel only to repeatedly claim “we were on a break!” when he was called out for it.

Ross and Rachel's on-off romance became legendary even as the series was still ongoing, with the tenth and final series ending in a reunion between the couple.
