Matthew Perry, famous for his role as Chandler Bing in “Friends,” recently emerged in public, sparking concern due to his past battles with substance abuse. Spanish media reported Perry looking disheveled and bloated during a Starbucks visit in Los Angeles, adding to these worries.

Last year, Perry’s memoir, “Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing,” made headlines for revealing his life-threatening struggle with opioid misuse, leading to a two-week coma and five months of recovery. Despite some controversy, Perry insisted he was relatively healthy in an interview.

However, a tragic turn came as Perry, aged 54, was found dead at his Los Angeles home. No drugs were discovered on the premises. His legacy is complex, marked by struggles, controversies, and undeniable talent. His passing reminds us of the pressures of fame and human vulnerability.
