The death of Matthew Perry, who played the role of Chandler Bing in the TV series Friends, was of course an unexpected event for all of us. The actor’s body was found in the jacuzzi of his Los Angeles home. According to media reports, the exact cause of death is not yet known, but it has been reported that no prohibited substance was found in the building. According to preliminary data, death may have occurred as a result of drowning. However, the actor had health problems. We tell you what has been happening in Matthew’s life in recent years.
With the closure of Friends, Matthew’s career slowly declined. Later it became known that the actor had problems with addiction, so he did not even remember three years of filming in the cult sitcom. Towards the end of the tenths and the beginning of the twenties, the actor appeared less and less in public and on the screens, and when the paparazzi managed to catch him, all social networks discussed it: due to the operation he underwent in 2018, he changed almost beyond recognition.
Last fall, Matthew Perry published a memoir called “Friends, Lovers, and the Big Bad,” in which he talked about a dark period in his life and his struggle with addiction. And in an interview with People on the eve of the book’s release, the actor admitted for the first time that several years ago he was on the verge of life and death due to addiction to strong painkillers. When he was 49, his colon sagged and he was in a coma for two weeks. Later, doctors told the star’s relatives that his chance of survival was 2 percent. Luckily, he came out of his coma, but afterwards he was hospitalized for five months and used a colostomy bag for another nine months. In the same interview, Matthew shared that he began developing an alcohol addiction when filming for “Friends” began.
Meanwhile, other “Friends” have already commented on the death of the actor. We also collected with Matthew a selection of other cult films and recalled interesting facts about the sitcom. And now you can read in this material what happened to the heroes of the cult series.
