Matthew Perry, a star of Friends, gone away age 54

More information regarding Matthew Perry’s death is coming to light. According to sources, he passed away this morning at home following some physical activity.

Actor Matthew Langford Perry was born in America and died in Canada on October 28, 2023. His portrayal as Chandler Bing on the NBC sitcom Friends (1994–2004) brought him widespread notoriety in the 1990s, and he was honored with a Screen Actors Guild Award for it.

We’ve been informed that Matthew played pickleball for two hours before returning home at some point in the morning, and that he then sent his assistant on an errand. We’re informed that after checking in again after almost two hours, the assistant found Matthew unresponsive and dialed 911.

It’s unclear at this time whether Matthew’s actions prior to his death had any bearing on his demise; an inquiry is currently being conducted.

The actor was discovered on Saturday at a house in the L.A. region, according to law enforcement officials. It seems he drowned there. First responders reportedly raced to the scene of a cardiac arrest call, according to our sources. The precise location of this incident on the premises is unknown.

According to our sources, he was discovered in the home’s jacuzzi, and no narcotics were discovered there either. Additionally, we are informed that there is no foul play.

The popular sitcom of the 1990s, Chandler Bing, starred Perry for ten seasons and 234 episodes, earning him the title of most renowned actor. Fans loved his performance as well as his character; his words and mannerisms have been imitated and parodied by fans worldwide. Specifically, one comes to mind: “Could (blank) BE more…”

Even though “Friends” was his most well-known role, MP had appeared in or served as a guest star in a plethora of other TV series over the years, including “Charles in Charge,” “Growing Pains,” “Silver Spoons,” “Boys Will Be Boys,” “Sydney,” “Beverly Hills, 90210,” “Home Free,” “Ally McBeal,” “The West Wing,” “Scrubs,” “Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip,” “Go On,” “The Odd Couple,” and many more.

In addition, he had starred in a number of noteworthy comedies, including “Fools Rush In,” “The Whole Nine Yards,” “Three to Tango,” “The Kid,” “17 Again,” “Getting In,” and numerous others. More recently, he has disappeared from the spotlight; he hasn’t performed since a 2017 TV miniseries.

Although he had a kind and cheerful appearance on film, Matthew struggled greatly off-screen, most notably with his drug and alcohol addiction—specifically, to painkillers. He had been in and out of treatment for years, having become addicted to Vicodin even while he was a cast member of Friends.

In a memoir he published this year, Matthew talked candidly about this difficult period of his life. He described his hardships, including his obvious weight gain/loss on the show.

Matthew had several extremely emotional interviews throughout his book tour, including one in which he told Diane Sawyer his tale in detail.

While Perry seemed clean and sober a year ago, fans expressed concern the year before when he and the other cast members were promoting the “Friends” reunion show because they thought he was ill, occasionally slurring his words and appearing a little out of it.

Matthew struggled with health problems, some of which were severe and necessitated hospital stays, in addition to his substance abuse. He had to have emergency surgery due to a gastrointestinal perforation in one instance, but he was fortunate to recover.

Although Matthew has never been married, he did have a brief engagement to Molly Hurwitz a few years ago, which lasted for just six months. He had been connected to Lizzy Caplan before to it.

His age was fifty-four.
