Tiffani Thiessen Talked About Her Friendship With Mark Paul Gosselaar & Now I’m Here Missing Zack & Kelly

Although she’s more into cooking now, Tiffani Thiessen is best known for her role as all-American cheerleader Kelly Kapowksi on Saved by the Bell. Even though Saved by the Bell ended long ago, our love for the show is still strong, just like the relationship between Tiffani and her on-screen boyfriend Mark-Paul Gosselaar (aka Zach Morris).

Thiessen recently talked about her still-strong friendship with Gosselaar on People Now, saying, “We’re kind of like brother and sister. I know people probably don’t want to hear that, but we grew up together.”

“We’re super, super close,” she continued. “We live not that far from each other, and I adore his wife and his kids. He loves my husband and they go drink beer all the time.” Can we join?

They’re so close in fact that Gosselaar was even on the finale of Thiessen’s cooking show Dinner at Tiffani’s in May 2016.

If you’re getting nostalgic over these, you can always watch Jimmy Fallon’s amazing 2015 Saved by the Bell reunion below. Don’t worry, we’ll have it on repeat for the next few days, too.
