Sarah Michelle Gellar disses Jennifer Love Hewitt in ‘shady’ new Instagram post decades after 90s stars’ original feud
SARAH Michelle Gellar has seemingly reignited her ‘feud’ with Jennifer Love Hewitt – although not everyone is convinced.
Sharing a “shady” new Instagram post decades after the two 90s stars’ original alleged feud, the 48-year-old Buffy actress has left fans stunned by shading fellow star Jennifer, 46.
Sarah recently took to her Instagram page to share the new trailer of the I Know What You Did Last Summer movie reboot – the movie that both Sarah and Jennifer starred in back in the 90s, as well as both being due to appear in the 2025 reboot.
Tagging several cast mates, Sarah tagged Jennifer Kaytin Robinson, Sam Lansky, Madelyn Cline, Gabbriette, Sarah Pidgeon, Chase Sui Wonders, and Sarah’s husband Freddie Prinze Jr.
Despite Jennifer Love Hewitt due to star in the movie, as per the announcement last December, Sarah did not tag her.
Taking to Reddit, one eagle-eyed fan noticed how Sarah shared a post and did not include Jennifer.
“This one takes us back the glory days of the late 90’s,” the post began.
“Apparently, Sarah Michelle Gellar uploaded the attached pic to her stories, and tagged everyone except for Jennifer Love Hewitt.”
They went on: “Allegedly, there was a lowkey beef with these two back in the day.
“You don’t say? I honestly wasn’t aware,” the Redditor said.
“I’m kind of living for this. I mean even if we should tag this with a Danny Glover, it’s interesting that whatever it was they were on about over a quarter of a century ago, was deep enough that in 2025 the pettiness is still being freshly served,” they concluded.
‘SMG HAS NO F**KS TO GIVE’
“I love how obvious it is – SMG has no f**ks to give,” penned one person in the comments section.
Another added: “Apparently they both dated FPJ back in the day before SMG obviously married him. Idk if there’s more to it.”
While a third seemingly cleared things up when they said: “There’s an option in Instagram to not let anyone tag you.
“JLH apparently has that activated. People are trying to make that into evidence that JLH and SMG hate each other.”
Just last year, speculation of a feud between the two women was rife when Sarah seemingly snubbed Jennifer on the red carpet.
I Know What You Did Last Summer Cast
The popular film saw many famous actors get their big break.
The cast included:
- Jennifer Love Hewitt as Julie James
- Sarah Michelle Gellar as Helen Shivers
- Ryan Phillippe as Barry Cox
- Freddie Prinze Jr. as Ray Bronson
- Johnny Galecki as Max Neurick
- Bridgette Wilson as Elsa Shivers
- Anne Heche as Melissa “Missy” Egan
- Muse Watson as Ben Willis / The Fisherman
While at the New York City premiere of her new series Dexter: Original Sin last December, Sarah was asked by Extra if she knew whether Jennifer would be returning for the I Know What You Did Last Summer reboot movie.
“I have nothing to do with that,” Sarah replied before stepping away from the interview.
She later addressed the viral moment, saying how she had signed a non-disclosure agreement, hence her sketchy response.
“Aspiring actors please note: this deer in the headlights reaction is perfect for when you are excited to see so many old friends in one project but have already stupidly forgotten what NDA means once this month,” she said at the time.
FEUD ADDRESSED
Last December, Jennifer also broke her silence on the feud she has allegedly been embroiled in with Sarah for many years.
Responding to the alleged rumors of a feud between the pair and whether or not she demanded her character Helen Shivers be killed off in the original movie, Jennifer lifted the lid.
Speaking on the I’ve Never Said This Before podcast in December 2024, she said: “I was 18. They were not taking script notes from me.
“All of us were in that experience together, you know, figuring it all out and everything.
“And I root for her and Freddie,” she added.
“I think it’s the cutest thing in the world that they’ve been married for 100 years and have kids.
“It’s, like, adorable. So it’s just been really funny to see all of this stuff.”
