You’ve probably already heard but actor Matthew Perry died over the weekend.
He was 54 year old.
He was best known for portraying Chandler Bing on Friends alongside Jennifer Aniston, Courtney Cox, Matt LeBlanc, David Schwimmer and Lisa Kudrow.
Matthew spent most of his childhood growing up in Canada with his Mother, Suzanne. They lived in Ottawa, Montreal and Toronto as Suzanne worked as a press secretary for then-prime minister Pierre Trudeau and later as a national anchor for Global News. He moved to live with his father, actor John Bennett Perry, when he was a teenager. This is all documented in his memoir that he released last year called “Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing: A Memoir”.
He struggled with addiction throughout his adult life.
Reports said that he died as a result of drowning. An investigation is already underway.
He will be missed.
