For more than 20 years, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Selma Blair have been each other’s rocks.

It all dates back to Cruel Intentions, when Gellar lobbied the film’s producers to cast Blair as the naïve Cecile. On the set of that film, Gellar “took me under her wing,” Blair has recalled on Instagram. “Today is no different. I am so in love with my angel of a friend… May we all have a friend like this.” Praising her pal on Instagram, Blair revealed that after she was diagnosed with MS Gellar cooked her dinner, tucked her in bed and “loved me up”. “I woke with so much love for [her],” Blair wrote.

The love has continued this week, when the pair journeyed to Disneyland to celebrate Gellar’s birthday. It’s been 20 years since they were last at the theme park on a trip to fete Gellar turning 21. This time, they were accompanied by their children and, in Blair’s case, her wheelchair. Blair uses the mobility aid when she needs it since her diagnosis with multiple sclerosis (MS) in October 2018.
