Matthew Perry's Abuse Allegations

On October 28, 2023, the world mourned the tragic loss of Matthew Perry, who was discovered unresponsive in his Los Angeles home, with the cause of death attributed to the “acute effects of ketamine.” Following the actor’s death, there have been distressing allegations of verbal, emotional, and physical abuse towards multiple women, including his ex-fiancée Molly Hurwitz.

However, insiders have stated that the revelations about Perry’s alleged abusive conduct have not only sparked public discussion but have also left his former Friends co-stars like Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, David Schwimmer, and Matt LeBlanc in emotional turmoil.

‘Friends’ cast are concerned about the impact of the accusations on the franchise

The source emphasized that the cast members heavily rely on the enduring success of the Friends franchise. “They have a vested interest in keeping the Friends brand thriving since there are streaming deals to be renewed and lucrative reunions to be organized. Having the brand tainted by association is a massive headache,” the insider confessed. “They depend on those residuals, Friends money has allowed them all to be extremely picky about the work they’ve chosen ever since.”
