The beloved 54-year-old actor was found dead in the hot tub at his Los Angeles mansion on Saturday, October 28. Shortly before the tragedy, Perry was practicing his recent favorite sport – pickleball, which is a combination of tennis, table tennis and badminton. He played the role of Chandler in the timeless sitcom “Friends”.
His friends and acquaintances from the industry publish many memories related to the actor. One of them is Gwyneth Paltrow, who posted an extremely moving entry on Instagram. In it, he returns to the times of his fascination with Perry, recalling, among others, memories of their fleeting romance.
Gwyneth Paltrow recalls her affair with the late. Matthew Perry
The star writes that she met the actor in 1993 at the Theater Festival in Williamstown, Massachusetts.
We were both there most of the summer doing shows. He was so funny, sweet and great to spend time with. We swam in creeks, drank beers at the local college bar, and kissed in a field of tall grass
– the actress remembers.
It was a magical summer. He shot a pilot for ‘Friends,’ but it hasn’t aired yet. He was nervous and hoped that his big break was just around the corner. (…). We remained friends for a while until we broke up, but I was always happy to see him. I feel very sad today, like many of us. I hope Matthew finally finds peace. Really.
– Paltrow concluded.
“Losing a friend is extremely painful”
Her emotional post received a lot of comments from fans who also mourn the death of the beloved actor. “A beautiful story. Such a loss…” “A wonderful memory” – we read. “Thank you for sharing your personal memories, Gwyneth. It’s beautiful that everyone can get to know the real Matthew better,” one person commented on the post.
It’s so sad when the people who made us laugh and brought us relief from our struggles through their work had it so hard… we send you love. Losing a friend is extremely painful
I’ve been watching ‘Friends’ since day one and every day since it aired (…) because it brings me so much joy and laughter every time. I haven’t watched it since the news of his death broke and I don’t know how it will continue. What a huge loss. I never thought I could cry so much for someone I’ve never met (…)
Wonderful words. The audience didn’t know him, but he made many people smile. People will never know how much they are loved until they are gone
