‘Friends’ co-star Courteney Cox remembers Matthew Perry on his first Death Anniversary | English Movie News
Courteney Cox paid tribute to her ‘Friends‘ co-star Matthew Perry on his first Death Anniversary. Perry was known for playing Chandler Bing on the hit television show and died on October 28, 2023, at the age of 53. His death was later ruled as an accident by the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner, which attributed the cause to “acute effects of ketamine.”
She is now in her Instagram with a heart for Matthew as she missingly says about him: “Missing you today and always.” 1. Cox included two photos: one is of her and Perry together, sharing a warm moment, possibly on the set of *Friends*, and another throwback featuring the original *Friends* cast: Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, and David Schwimmer, alongside herself and Perry.
The death brought great sadness among his fans and fellow artists working in the entertainment industry, mostly because he was open regarding his addiction battles. Through his memoir, ‘Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing’, Perry opens up and shares his experience with alcoholic and opioid addiction, how he went through rehab to get better after attending many sessions.
The investigation into Perry’s death led to several arrests connected to the supply of ketamine. Among those arrested was a California doctor, Mark Chavez, and a known ketamine distributor. Cox’s tribute is one of many that highlight how Perry touched the lives of those who knew him personally and fans who loved his work.
As the family, friends, and fans of Perry reflect on him, Cox reminds them of his legacy, the happiness he brought into the lives of millions of people by *Friends* and in open talk about his struggles as a way of bringing attention to addiction and recovery.
