All of my friends got married and had kids and moved on." At another bespeak later in the series, Joey says to Alex "I've only said I beloved you lot to one woman and she was pregnant with my best friend's baby and they ended upward together".

Some people choose to believe that the in a higher place lines imply that Ross and Rachel remarried ane another, others point out that considering their history and patterns this would be unlikely. In fact, Joey's statements are vague and tin be interpreted in unlike means:

• Ross and Rachel may take indeed stayed together for a long fourth dimension afterwards the series finale, and even remarried at some indicate. Some of the coiffure have stated they believed so. In "The Final One, Part 2" both Rachel and Ross stated that "this was it", and they wanted to brand information technology work. It is possible that Joey's line "got married" referred to Ross and Rachel marrying each other, and "ended upwardly together" referred to the indicate in time when Joey talked, a few months after "The Concluding One", rather than the twenty-four hour period depicted in the terminal episode of the show. Unlike all previous times when Ross and Rachel got back together and bankrupt shortly after, this time they are older, more mature and even accept a child together. All this could, and should, encourage them to attempt harder than before.
• It is possible that Joey'southward line "got married" refers to Chandler, Monica and Phoebe, or he may have referred to Ross and Rachel's drunken hymeneals in Las Vegas. "Concluded upwardly together" may have referred to the 24-hour interval depicted in "The Last One, Part 2". The lack of understanding, the lack of respect, the lack of advice, and the lack of trust betwixt Ross and Rachel, and the breaking up shortly subsequently they get together, are patterns which repeat throughout the last 7 years of the bear witness, and could possibly continue to repeat after "The Final Ane".
  • Since Joey never clearly says "Rachel remarried Ross" (or vice versa), both Ross and Rachel may have married dissimilar people -- such a situation has already happened before in flavor 4 and 5, when Ross fell in love with Emily Waltham and married her, and at the same time Rachel proposed to Joshua Burgin and would accept married him if he didn't freak out.

The lack of a reference -- both reliable and in-universe -- Rachel and Ross marrying each other after "The Last One, Part 2" or even staying together afterward the last scene, ofttimes cause speculations and disagreements amidst fans nearly what might have happened after the final episode. Until there are official episodes of a Friends continuation, this question cannot be answered.
