A source close to the pair revealed to Hollywood Life exclusively that they’re still friends. “Fergie and Josh have nothing but love and respect for one another. There has never been and continues not to be any bad blood between them,” the insider said in June 2019. “They consider one another friends and there’s no drama.”
