She went on: “No one in my adult life has had a more profound impact on me than Matthew Langford Perry. I have tremendous gratitude for that, for everything I learned from our relationship.
“I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention Al Anon, an invaluable resource for those who love someone struggling with this destructive disease. Matty, I feel relief that you are at peace,” she concluded.
The beloved actor first rose to fame in the 1990s when he took on the role of Chandler Bing in the hit American sitcom, Friends. Since then, he has become an accomplished author following the release of his book, Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing: A Memoir.
