Laura and Reese are friends and colleagues, having worked together on the 2014 drama Wild and the HBO hit Big Little Lies.

Though their hit show is over after two limited series, the gals have stayed close.

And they haven’t let the pandemic fray their friendship either.

Last March Reese shared a snapshot of the pair taking hike together while keeping a hearty distance between them.

Dern talked about her deep connection to Witherspoon during a 2017 New York Times chat, saying: ‘When I met Reese, I knew she would be my family for the rest of my life. And I don’t say that lightly.’

‘Nobody makes me laugh harder than Laura,’ Reese said in the interview. ‘She can put me on the floor with a text message.’
