Matthew Perry has died at the age of 54, TMZ has reported.
The beloved “Friends” star was reportedly discovered dead in the jacuzzi of a home in Los Angeles’ ritzy Pacific Palisades neighborhood just after 4 p.m. Saturday afternoon.
Law enforcement sources told TMZ that first-responders rushed to the address with the call first reported as a cardiac arrest.
They added that no drugs found at the scene and no foul play is suspected.
In a statement, the Los Angeles Police Department stated: “We responded to the 1800 block of Blue Sail Rd for a death investigation on a male 4:10 pm this afternoon. He was in his 50s.”
Perry had a long history of drug and alcohol abuse, and opened up about his addictions in a memoir titled “Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing,” which was published last year.

Sad. RIP.
Thanks for posting. He will be missed.
I stopped watching after the first season. Did Ross hook up with Monica?
They didn’t do incest.

The heat causes a drop in blood pressure and could lead to light headedness and fainting.
He was vaxxed
Such a shame. I grew up with Friends and will miss him.
RIP. I mean that. I hope finds the peace in death he could not find in life.
Long term drug abuse will do that. My middle brother, a longtime alcoholic, die of a heart attack after 3 weeks of hospitalization and rehab in a nursing home. How sad he died in a Jacuzzi. Most likely had a sever MI and drowned in 2 feet of water.
Never got to see a lot of TV in the 80s-90s - was going to night school.
Oh 😪. I love Friends. RIP.
I agree but constant reference to the vax is ludicrous .
….
It sucks! I loved Friends. Every Thursday night I watched. The ultimate worst part of this is his parents are still alive. Now that’s gut wrenching.
Did Ross hook up with Monica?
It was a wholesome show. No brother sister action.
No adult drowns in a hot tub unless there is something else going on. A medical issue? Maybe so.
How many Covid vaccines did he get and had he received a booster in the past few days?
Very jabbed. Per his own posts.
My grandparents lost 3 of their five children before they died .
“Years ago I sat in a hot tub too long…..I could not stand up to get out without help .
Frightening “
Of course, there is always drugs as the culprit. Many in Hollywood use drugs much like many eat M&Ms candy.
Yup. It may, or may not have caught up with him. These days, it's a valid thing to point out.
