Friends stars have a theory about Matthew Perry’s death

According to The Daily Mail, the cast of “Friends” believe that Matthew Perry’s death may have been a combination of things, including taking something that didn’t mix well with the hot water in his jacuzzi, where he was found unresponsive. A source close to actress Lisa Kudrow, who played Pheobe Buffay on the series, revealed that the cast has been talking about Perry’s possible cause of death.

“No one wants to believe it was medication – prescribed or not,” the insider said. “Of course, that is a thought in their minds. They are thinking he must have taken something that did not mix with the warm water,” the source added.

Perry’s former health problems and addiction issues taken into consideration

Perry has dealt with addiction issues in the past. The actor, who is best known for his portrayal of Chandler Bing on “Friends,” has been very about his struggles. Matthew even detailed his alcohol and drug abuse in his memoir, “Friends, Lovers, and The Big, Terrible Thing.” However, in recent years he has celebrated his sobriety, leading fans to hope that his death was caused by something else.

Meanwhile, Matthew Perry has also had some significant health problems as well. At age 49, the “Fools Rush In” star was rushed to the hospital when his colon burst due to opioid overuse. He was in a coma for several days and spent months in the hospital as part of his recovery. His former health problems may have led him to be prescribed medications that may have possibly been a factor in his death.

“This does not seem real or fair to her or any of the gang,” Kudrow’s friend revealed. Because Matthew was finally at peace with himself and was having the best year of his life since his book launch almost exactly one year ago. He was enjoying life,” the insider continued. “He was closer than ever to his folks and actively engaged in his sobriety. She is baffled on what caused his death.”

Fans are still waiting to hear more from Matthew Perry’s “Friends” co-stars. So far, Lisa Kudrow, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Matt LeBlanc, and David Schwimmer. However, they did release a joint statement about the actor’s passing.

“We are all so utterly devastated by the loss of Matthew. We were more than just cast mates. We are a family,” their statement reads. “There is so much to say, but right now we’re going to take a moment to grieve and process this unfathomable loss. 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.”
