Jennifer Love Hewitt Breaks Silence on Sarah Michelle Gellar Feud Rumors After 30 Years

In a surprising revelation, Jennifer Love Hewitt has disclosed that she hasn’t spoken to her 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' co-star Sarah Michelle Gellar in nearly three decades. Addressing persistent rumors of a feud, Hewitt, now 46, clarified that there’s no bad blood—at least not on her side. During a candid chat with a media outlet, she noted that the last time she saw Gellar, 48, was at 18, right when the iconic 1997 slasher flick hit theaters.

Hewitt expressed bewilderment at the online speculation, questioning why narratives of conflict seem to dominate. 'Why do we always have to be pitted against each other?' she mused, highlighting a broader frustration with Hollywood’s tendency to stir drama where none exists. She emphasized that, from her perspective, everything is fine, even if they haven’t crossed paths in years.

The buzz around their supposed rift intensified recently with the release of the latest installment in the franchise, where Hewitt reprised her role as Julie James, and Gellar made a brief cameo. At the premiere, the two didn’t manage to meet—Hewitt was on the red carpet while Gellar was inside with her family. Gellar later took to social media to dispel any tension, praising Hewitt’s performance and explaining the logistical chaos of such events as the reason for their missed connection.

Fuel for the feud rumors also came from small moments, like Gellar’s abrupt response to a reporter’s question about Hewitt’s involvement in the 2025 sequel, which she later attributed to NDA constraints. Additionally, a social media post where Gellar tagged several cast members but omitted Hewitt sparked chatter, though some fans pointed out technical reasons for the oversight.

What’s clear amidst the noise is that both actresses have moved forward with their lives and careers since their teenage horror days. Whether it’s a genuine disconnect or just the passage of time, this story reminds us that not every silence signals a storm. Sometimes, life just... happens.
