Following the tragic passing of Friends star Matthew Perry, actress Jennifer Aniston has shared her first emotional response, leaving fans heartbroken. On November 15, Aniston took to her social media to share a touching image of Perry, marking her first public statement nearly three weeks after the unexpected loss of her close friend and colleague.
Jennifer Aniston expressed her profound sorrow over the death of Perry, admitting that saying goodbye to her dear friend, whom she affectionately referred to as “Matty,” was a “crazy feeling” unlike anything she had ever experienced. Her heartfelt post quickly garnered immense attention across social media platforms.
In her tribute, Aniston shared how deeply the Friends cast loved Perry, stating, “We loved him deeply. He was a part of our DNA. The six of us will always be together like this.” This poignant reflection underscores the close bond that the Friends cast shared, both on and off the screen.
Additionally, Aniston shared a touching anecdote about Perry’s love for laughter: “As he told himself, if he didn’t hear laughter, he thought he would die. His life truly depended on laughter. And Matty succeeded in that. He made all of us laugh and laugh heartily.” These words beautifully capture Perry’s vibrant spirit and his impact on those around him.
Closing her tribute, Aniston penned an emotional message to her late friend: “Matty, I love you so much. I know you are at peace now and no longer in pain. I talk to you every day… sometimes I can almost hear you saying, ‘Can you be crazier?’… Rest easy, brother.” Following her post, fans flooded the comments with words of comfort, hoping for Aniston to find solace amid her loss.
Matthew Perry was discovered deceased at a home in Los Angeles, and the remaining Friends cast has been devastated by his passing. Among them, Jennifer Aniston is believed to be struggling the most with this unexpected tragedy, especially after recently losing her father earlier this year.
This marks Aniston’s second significant loss of the year, as she has yet to fully recover from her father’s death. The news of Perry’s passing has left her utterly devastated.
In a joint statement from the remaining Friends cast, they expressed their collective grief: “We are all heartbroken by the passing of Matthew. We were not just co-stars; we were family. There is so much to say, but for now, we will take a little time to remember this tremendous loss. Our hearts and thoughts are with Matty’s family, his friends, and all those who loved him around the world.”
