Courteney Bass Cox is a well-known American actress, director, and producer. She rose to international fame for her role as Monica Geller on the hit sitcom Friends. Cox is also recognized for her performances in the horror film franchise Scream, the television comedy series Cougar Town, and the drama series Dirt.
Over the years, Courteney Cox has been involved in several high-profile relationships. She dated actor Michael Keaton for several years and was briefly linked to Counting Crows frontman Adam Duritz. She also reportedly dated Ian Copeland earlier in her career. In 1999, Cox married actor David Arquette, whom she met while filming Scream. The couple welcomed a daughter, Coco Arquette, in 2004.
After separating in 2010, Cox and Arquette filed for divorce in 2012. Their divorce was finalized in 2013. Later that year, Cox began a relationship with Snow Patrol musician Johnny McDaid, whom she met through mutual connections. The couple's bond grew quickly, with both frequently expressing admiration for one another in interviews and public appearances.
In public statements regarding her separation from Arquette, Cox expressed a desire for both of them to pursue happiness—even if that meant going their separate ways. She emphasized that they both tried hard to save the marriage but ultimately decided it was in their best interests to part amicably. Despite their breakup, Cox and Arquette have maintained a supportive friendship and work together to co-parent their daughter.
Arquette has spoken candidly in interviews about the circumstances leading up to their separation. He admitted to having a brief affair following their split and noted the emotional distance that had developed between them. Rumors at the time also speculated about Cox's closeness with her Cougar Town co-star Brian Van Holt, though Cox has never commented publicly on these claims. Both parties have acknowledged that their romantic relationship had ended before seeing other people.
As with many celebrity relationships, Cox and Arquette's breakup attracted considerable media scrutiny. Arquette stated that the growing emotional distance and suspicions contributed to the breakdown of their marriage. He also mentioned that they had been functionally separated before either engaged in other relationships. Cox opted to remain private on many of these matters, choosing instead to focus publicly on co-parenting and her professional work.
Following her divorce, Cox began dating Johnny McDaid in 2013. The couple became engaged in June 2014 but later called off the engagement while continuing to maintain a relationship. Their romance has been characterized by periods of separation and reunion, often drawing attention from the media.
Recently, Cox was photographed wearing what appeared to be an engagement ring while at the airport with McDaid, leading to renewed speculation about their relationship status. As of now, neither Cox nor McDaid has confirmed or denied any new engagement, but the couple continues to appear together in public, signaling a close and ongoing relationship.
