Approximately a year has passed since the demise of Matthew Perry, which left both his fellow celebrities and devoted Friends fans deeply saddened. Following his tragic death in October, Jennifer Aniston, one of Perry’s co-stars from Friends, shared details about their last conversation. Matthew Perry sadly lost his life at the age of 54.

In every single episode of Friends, airing from 1995 to 2004, Matthew co-starred alongside Jennifer. It was Jennifer who found Matthew unresponsive in the hot tub at his Los Angeles home. She reported that he had been content and in good health, with no signs of distress.

According to Annistin’s statement to Variety, “I exchanged texts with him that very morning, quite amusing it was. Matt had given up smoking, he was working on his fitness, and overall, he seemed content – that’s all I can confirm. As a matter of fact, we were texting each other that same morning.” This implies that Matt wasn’t facing any difficulties as per Annistin’s knowledge at the time they exchanged texts.
