Maybe not quite, but here is one reasonably plausible contender. It's from Donizetti,the second act of Anna Bolena. Not exactly a "friendship" episode, because here is where Jane Seymour tells Ann that she will be Ann's successor as the (third) wife of Henry VIII. Anna adorns the resume of several great names; here she is in the rendition of Anna Netrebko, with Elīna Garanča.
