The actress announced last month she and husband David Arquette - with whom she has six-year-old daughter Coco - are undergoing a trial separation and her 'Cougar Town' co-star Ryan Devlin is astonished by how well she is coping with the split and intense interest in it.

He told RadarOnline.com: "Obviously in this business when you have to go through personal things like this, it's the toughest thing. Courteney is amazing woman and very talented. She will get through this in no time.

"When you have to go through something like that in public there are a couple of different ways to handle it. And she's handled it, I think, with such grace, courage and strength. Honestly, I wish her the best. She's such a great person."

David is currently staying at the luxury Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel and has reportedly attracted attention for his behaviour around the pool and its bar.

One onlooker explained: "David and a group of female friends rented a cabana at the Roosevelt pool. He started to hop from pool chair to pool chair while playing air guitar to 'Sweet Child o' Mine'. Boy, was he blowing off some steam."
