See What Joey Tribbiani's Former Love Interests Look Like Today
Updated July 30 2018, 12:07 p.m. ET
There is no denying Joey Tribbiani had his fair share of love interests on Friends. All it took was his signature "How you doin'?" — and women were swooning over the soap opera actor.
So, it should not have come as a huge surprise when Joey, who was played by Matt LeBlanc, started dating his longtime friend Rachel Green.
The two hit it off in Barbados when Joey sees his then-girlfriend, Charlie Wheeler, kissing Ross — which prompts him to kiss Rachel (Jennifer Aniston), who had already been not-so-secretly crushing on Dr. Drake Ramoray. Fourteen years after the finale, fans of the comedy series are still upset that Joey and Rachel ended up as, well, friends.
"I say this every time I finish Friends but I’m gonna say it again: RACHEL AND JOEY SHOULD HAVE ENDED UP TOGETHER!!," one pro-Jochel fan tweeted. Another agreed, writing, "Y’all ever watch Friends and get really annoyed with the fact that Joey and Rachel didn’t end up together because same."
Rachel and Joey aside, even the biggest Friends fans have a hard time keeping track of all of Joey's famous love interests. From Susan Sarandon as Cecilia Monroe to Kristin Davis as librarian Erin, Joey's love life was definitely not DOA.
