Singleton Courteney Cox spends some time with the only man in her life… Her on-screen son

Courteney Cox might be used to seducing younger men in her hit show Cougar Town, but on this occasion the male actor she’s seen cosying up to is her on-screen son.

The Easy A actor Dan Byrd, who plays Travis Cobb on the show, was filming with Cox on Santa Monica Beach for the latest series.

The pair were seen frolicking and laughing on the beach and walked side by side as they strolled along the shoreline.

And Courteney, who plays divorced Jules Cobb on the series, proved you’re never too old to play with sand castles as she and Cobb built some beach art of their own.

The 46-year-old, who recently underwent knee surgery, looked back to her best in white jeans and a matching white jumper on set.

The actors looked happy to be back filming after the second series was previously on hiatus, but the show will return to the small screen later this year.

Courteney also has Scream 4 coming out this year, which is set to hit cinemas mid April, in which she stars alongside estranged husband David Arquette, whom she recently separated from.

More than a decade after the last Scream was released in 2000, the slasher film will see original cast member Neve Campbell join newcomers Hayden Panettiere, Emma Roberts and Rory Culkin.

Courteney’s husband and Scream co-star David Arquette seem to be remaining professional and she recently said she supported his decision to receive treatment for ‘alcohol and other issues’ in rehab.

The former Friends actress said in a statement: ‘I really admire David and his choice to take charge and better his life.’
