— Variety June 6, 2024 Jennifer Aniston broke down in tears as she was asked about her former Friends co-star Matthew Perry in a recent interview Jennifer revealed that Matthew was happy and healthy as she was even texting him on the morning of his death. 'I was literally texting with him that morning, funny Matty. He was not in pain. He wasn't struggling. He was happy.'
Aniston was ready to say goodbye to her longtime friend Perry on November 15 which was just over two weeks after his untimely death. In addition to her behind-the-scenes communications with Perry, Aniston included a sweet clip from Friends in which his character Chandler confessed his platonic love for her character Rachel before her tearful goodbye.'Having to say goodbye to our Matty has been an insane wave of emotions that I've never experienced before,' she continued. 'We all experience loss at some point in our lives. Loss of life or loss of love.
'For Matty, he KNEW he loved to make people laugh. As he said himself, if he didn't hear the 'laugh' he thought he was going to die. His life literally depended on it,' she wrote. 'And boy did he succeed in doing just that. He made all of us laugh. And laugh hard.' In early November, Perry's death certificate was released. Though the actor is believed to have died of accidental drowning, his cause of death has so far been deferred while awaiting the results of a toxicology report.
David Schwimmer paid a touching tribute to Perry around the same time as Aniston with a still from Friends of him and Perry dressed up like Miami Vice charactersMid-November also saw the release of another somber statement from Perry's fellow Friends costar David Schwimmer, who played Ross. 'And you had heart. Which you were generous with, and shared with us, so we could create a family out of six strangers. This photo is from one of my favorite moments with you. Now it makes me smile and grieve at the same time.
The stars continued: 'In time we will say more, as and when we are able,' the statement continues. 'For now, our thoughts and our love are with Matty's family, his friends, and everyone who loved him around the world.' The cemetery is opposite Warner Bros Studios, where Friends was filmed for 10 seasons, and is the final resting place of a galaxy of Hollywood stars, among them Carrie Fisher, Bette Davis, Stan Laurel, Buster Keaton, INXS frontman Michael Hutchence, Paul Walker, Brittany Murphy and Anne Heche.
'Matthew. It is with a heavy heart I say goodbye. The times we had together are honestly among the favorite times of my life,' he wrote. Perry was a natural fit for the role of Chandler, as he was beloved for his sarcastic one-liners, and many of his mannerisms grew from his own behavior.LeBlanc, 56, who played Chandler's best friend Joey Tribbiani, wrote: 'Matthew. It is with a heavy heart I say goodbye. The times we had together are honestly among the favorite times of my life'
He said years later that by the end of the 10th series of the hit show, he became 'entrenched in a lot of trouble'. Justin Trudeau , the Prime Minister of Canada attended school with Perry when he lived in the country and wrote a touching post about him. The star laid bare the height of his terrible drug and alcohol addiction battle which nearly cost him his life in a memoir titled Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing: A Memoir.Doctors gave him only a two percent chance of survival and he was in a coma for two weeks followed by months more in the hospital.
Jennifer Aniston , Courteney Cox , Lisa Kudrow , Matt LeBlanc and David Schwimmer all signed the statement, telling fans they were heartbroken by the news.
