Jamie Lee Curtis has opened up about her enduring friendship with Lindsay Lohan, highlighting the genuine bond that formed during their time working together in Disney’s 2003 film, Freaky Friday. The movie, where they portrayed a mother and daughter who swap bodies, marked the beginning of their connection when Lohan was just 15 years old.
In an interview with People, Curtis, now 66, emphasized the importance of maintaining a real relationship, especially in the often challenging environment of the movie industry. She noted that it is crucial for those who connect to communicate openly and authentically. Curtis remarked, “There’s R-E-E-L life, and then there’s R-E-A-L life,” underscoring that their relationship extended beyond the film set into genuine mentorship.
Throughout Lohan’s evolving career, Curtis has made it clear that she has always been available for support. The two have stayed in touch over the years, which has only strengthened their bond. Now, as mothers themselves, the actresses share a deeper understanding of each other’s experiences. Curtis is a mother of two daughters, Ruby and Annie, while Lohan recently welcomed her son, Luai, with her husband, Bader Shammas.
