Ahhhh, having a best friend really is the most amazing thing.

So when she moves in the same world as you, it makes it all the better to have someone there that understands.

Emma Willis paid tribute to her friendship with BFF, Giovanna Fletcher, in a heartwarming Instagram post.

It said: “Happy happy birthday to this absolute dreamboat. Never ever could you wish for a more perfect friend. You will never know how much I love and appreciate you @mrsgifletcher have a bloody wonderful day 😘.”

The message was so sweet that fans gushed about the friendship:

Even Line Of Duty star, Vicky McClure, got in on the act!

Emma and Giovanna (also know as Gi) have been friends after meeting through their husbands.

Their other halves being Busted’s Matt Willis, and McFly’s Tom Fletcher, who both met at theatre school.

The friendship was cemented when Tom auditioned to be in Busted and made it through, only for the record company to decide they wanted the group to be a trio!

But Tom continued to be part of the band behind the scenes and helped to co-write songs with the boys.

Then he went off to form McFly, and years later, Matt and fellow Busted band mate James Bourne, joined forces with Tom’s band to become McBusted.

Giovanna has been with Tom since they met, aged 13, at Sylvia Young Theatre School, and Emma met Matt in 2005, just as Busted were coming to an end.

When they’re not looking after their own careers, and, of course, families, the couples hang out with each other, most recently on New Year’s Eve when they celebrated seeing in 2018 together.

Now that’s the kind of showbiz friendship we love to read about!
