<\/p>\nAccording to the L.A. Times, Matthew Perry, the Friends actor who struggled with addiction for many years before to, <\/p>\n
during, and following his ten seasons as a member of the cast of one of the most popular comedies on television, passed away. <\/p>\n
The paper’s source claimed Perry was found unconscious in his Los Angeles hot pool; the source did not specify the cause of death. Actor 54 was his age.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Perry is best known for playing the smart, sardonic, and catchphrase-obsessed Chandler Bing in the classic sitcom of the 1990s. <\/p>\n
From 1994 to 2004, he starred in 234 episodes of the David Crane and Martha Kaufman-created series, for which he received an Emmy nod for his efforts in the ninth season. <\/p>\n
(Perry received five Emmy nominations overall; one of them was for his part in the HBO Max Friends reunion special in 2021). <\/p>\n
Despite the fact that the six main characters in the series were all humorous, Chandler stood out as the most endearing of them all. <\/p>\n
He was a sophisticated, self-aware class clown who could make people laugh with only his distinct tone of voice (\u2018Could she be more out of my league?\u2019). <\/p>\n

Perry calculated that he had spent almost $9 million on sobriety previous year. He claimed to have <\/p>\n
undergone fifteen rehab stays and fourteen stomach surgeries as a result of his alcohol and narcotic addiction. <\/p>\n
The worst of these occurred when Perry’s colon burst when he was 49 years old. According to Perry, <\/p>\n
he was put in a coma for two weeks and needed to use a colostomy bag for the following nine months. In his memoir, Perry stated, <\/p>\n
\u2018The doctors told my family that I had a 2 percent chance to live.\u2019 \u2018I was placed on an ECMO machine, <\/p>\n
