Fans Stunned by Jaw-Dropping Transformation of the Actress Who Played Baby Emma on Friends

Have you ever stopped to wonder what became of the tiniest cast members from Friends—the actual babies who played Emma, Ross and Rachel’s bundle of joy? Suddenly, I feel my own age showing, because little Emma is now, quite literally, all grown up! No, really, she can legally rent a car and join TikTok trends (which she’s done—quite victoriously). Alexandra Conley, who—along with her twin sister Athena—was one of several real-life babies to tag-team the role, just resurfaced online. And here’s the kicker: fans can’t believe how much Alexandra looks like she could really be the offspring of Jennifer Aniston and David Schwimmer. It almost makes you wonder—did Central Perk serve some secret, DNA-morphing lattes?

But wait, there’s more. Alexandra isn’t just nostalgia-fodder; she’s gone viral joining a TikTok wave that’s part humblebrag, part self-aware meme—and part “holy airball” (a term that’s apparently a basketball shout, but now also a flex for young adults with cult-status baby resumes). Social media, you glorious time machine, you. Curious to see just how uncanny this grown-up Emma’s resemblance is to her fictional mom and dad? Prepare for a delightful rabbit hole. LEARN MORE.

Remember ‘The One Where Rachel Has a Baby’?

Well, one of the infants who played Jennifer Aniston and David Schwimmer’s fictional child in Friends is all grown up – and people can’t believe what she looks like now.

Alexandra Conley and her twin sister Athena both starred as the baby who beloved characters Rachel Green and Ross Geller welcomed into the world after a one-night stand.

As the series progressed, the tiny tot – called Emma – was also played by twins Noelle and Cali Sheldon, as well as Genevieve and Elizabeth Davidson.

Friends fans might have forgotten this tidbit of information, but luckily, Alexandra recently decided to remind us all of her claim to fame by taking part in the latest trend which is taking TikTok by storm.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably seen people sharing a succession of three images while bragging about their biggest achievements in life.

The first slide usually begins with a social media user hinting at what their triumph is, followed by a second which suggests one of their peers has underestimated it.

The third and final slide then usually includes photographic evidence of their accomplishment, alongside the words ‘holy airball’, while Jeezy’s 2005 song ‘Soul Survivor’ plays in the background.

It’s a reference to the basketball term ‘holy airball’, which refers to a player taking a shot and completely missing the basket and the backboard – while the trend is also giving people a license to humbly brag about something.

Alexandra decided to join in on the fun a couple of weeks ago, and she began her clip by writing: “Told him I was on TV as a baby.”

On the second slide, she imitated the man’s response to her statement as she wrote: “Oh, so you did like Gerber commercials?”

Then, Alexandra shared a snap of herself being cradled by Schwimmer and Aniston in the January 2003 episode titled ‘The One Where Rachel Goes Back To Work’, alongside the words: “#holyairball.”

Talk about a flex, eh?

People couldn’t believe that one of the original baby Emmas has now turned 23 and boasts more than 44,000 followers on TikTok.

But social media users were even more stunned by another aspect of Alexandra’s clip – the recent snap of her which shows she has an eerie likeness to her on-screen parents.

Loads of people flooded the comment section to tell her she was a dead ringer for the stars, saying they reckon she could pass as their daughter in real life.

One person said: “You’re kind of giving Ross and Rachel’s baby as an adult though. They casted well.”

Another wrote: “But why do you look like you could be their actual kid?!”

A third commented: “It’s crazy that you actually look like you could be Jen’s daughter.”

The clip has since gone viral, racking up more than two million views.

According to IMDb, Alexandra and her sister Athena appeared on the show from January to March 2003.
