Dawson's Creek Stars Joshua Jackson and Busy Philipps Enjoy a Rare LA Reunion!
REUNION GOALS: Dawson's Creek Alums Joshua Jackson and Busy Philipps Reunite on Red Carpet, Spill Juicy Tea
In a move that will make 90s TV fans swoon, two beloved stars of the hit teen drama Dawson's Creek, Joshua Jackson and Busy Philipps, recently reunited at the Motion Picture and Television Foundation's NextGen Annual Summer Party fundraiser in Los Angeles. The event, held at The Aster, brought together working and retired members of the entertainment community to support health and social services.
The dynamic duo, who played best friends-turned-lovers Dawson (James Van Der Beek) and Joey's (Katie Holmes) BFFs on the iconic show, turned heads as they walked the red carpet. Busy Philipps, 45, stunned in a lacy, white suit with shorts and a boxy jacket featuring gold buttons. She paired her outfit with bronze-toned pumps, delicate dangling earrings, and a few rings on each hand.
But the real pièce de résistance was Busy's bold new 'do – a baby pink dye job that perfectly matched Joshua's pink suit. Yes, you read that right – Josh wore a pink suit! The Karate Kid: Legends actor, 47, completed his look with brown loafers and a crisp white T-shirt, while sporting a distinguished salt and pepper beard.
The two friends spent some quality time catching up on a plush sofa at the soiree. With their respective careers thriving, it's no surprise they're still going strong – Busy is busy (pun intended) hosting her late-night talk show Busy This Week on QVC and HSN, while Joshua is juggling his role as ship's doctor on the drama-filled Doctor Odyssey.
But beneath the surface of their sunny reunion lies a more complicated story. According to sources close to the couple, they're currently locked in a heated battle over what's best for their 5-year-old daughter, Juno. The issue allegedly stems from an incident where Busy reportedly enrolled Juno in school without Joshua's knowledge or consent – and things have been rocky ever since.
In a recent court appearance, Josh went head-to-head with his ex-wife Jodie Turner-Smith, whose divorce from the Canadian-American actor was finalized in May. It seems their high-profile split has left them both reeling, with Joshua recently taking to the courts to address concerns about Juno's education and well-being.
As the drama unfolds, fans can only hope that these two beloved stars will work through their issues amicably – for the sake of their little one, if nothing else.
