Kathleen Turner, who played Chandler’s dad on ‘Friends,’ shared a moving tribute for late star Matthew Perry
Kathleen Turner, who played Matthew Perry’s dad on Friends, shared her memories of the actor after his shocking death at age 54.
Turner noted that she hadn’t seen Perry in about a decade, but he’d previously gone to see one of her Broadway shows and visited her backstage. “When he saw me, he yelled out, ‘Hey, Dad,’ and everyone thought it was pretty cool,” Turner recalled, adding that she is “very sad for Matthew.” The Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office confirmed Perry’s death one day later. A separate report from the L.A. County Medical Examiner, obtained by NBC News, said that Perry’s cause of death was “deferred” pending a toxicology report.
“You can track the trajectory of my addiction if you gauge my weight from season to season — when I’m carrying weight, it’s alcohol; when I’m skinny, it’s pills,” Perry wrote. “When I have a goatee, it’s lots of pills.”
