Friends co-stars must be among the individuals who are grieving the death of the much-loved Matthew Perry the most. Perry, best known for his role as Chandler Bing, was discovered dead in his LA home’s hot pool in late October. His untimely death stunned his legions of followers as well as the entertainment world as a whole.
Perry was well aware that in the event of his death, he would be most associated with Friends, and thus the world waited to see how the show’s other primary cast members would react in light of the tragedy. Jennifer Aniston, Matt LeBlanc, Courteney Cox, David Schwimmer, and Lisa Kudrow have remained silent since their joint statement a few days following Perry’s death.
“We are all completely crushed by Matthew’s death. We were more than simply coworkers. “We are a family,” the cast said in their first united statement. “There is so much to say, but for the time being, we’re going to grieve and process this incomprehensible loss.” We will say more as we are able in the future.
For the time being, our thoughts and prayers are with Matty’s family, friends, and everyone who loved him throughout the world.”The five were all there at Perry’s Forest Lawn, Hollywood funeral on November 3, and sources close to Aniston and Cox spoke of their immense sadness and suffering in the aftermath of their friend’s death.
According to a Hollywood insider, Aniston has been the most affected by Perry’s death. “All five of the Friends cast are in bad shape, but Jen is by far the worst,” a source told Woman’s Day.”She’s torturing herself with every scenario in which she could have done or should have said this or that.”
She was one of the last persons to speak with him, and she had planned to phone him the next day [the day after he died]. She’s been going over every phrase, but no one knows.””The real pain is that she’s been with him almost every step of the way,” an insider said. She had high hopes for Matthew’s big comeback, and they were talking about writing a new script together.
There was so much to look forward to, but Jen understands it was his body, not Matthew’s, that gave out. “She knows he wanted to live, which makes his untimely death all the more cruel.” He still had so much to offer. She’s devastated, and it will take her a long time to heal. She’ll never be able to convince herself that she didn’t try everything she could to save him, but she did.
Thanks to Jen and Courteney Cox’s assistance, the world had Matthew Perry for a lot longer than expected.” Perry’s co-stars took to social media this week to express their feelings about the tragedy for the first time. For her part, Aniston shared a screenshot of a text message she exchanged with the late actor, in which he informed her that making her laugh “made my day.”
Aniston’s response to the message was, “Awww the first of THOUSANDS of times…”Matthew Perry, may you rest in peace, and thank you for the memories.
