Jennifer Aniston reveals text she got from Matthew Perry ‘out of nowhere’ before his tragic death

The tragic and sudden passing of actor Matthew Perry brought sadness all over the world.

The actor was found dead on October 28 in the hot tub of his LA home. Allegedly, he sent his personal assistant to run some errands for him, and when she returned home, she noticed his body under the water. As per reports, Perry died of drowning. The results of the toxicology report authorities asked for are yet to be revealed, but what is known is that there were no illegal drugs found at the scene.

According to Perry’s closest family and friends, at the time of his passing, he was sober.

The star behind the much-loved character of Chandler Bing battled addictions for the most part of his life, but he never stopped trying to get back on track, despite the failures he experienced over and over again.

The relationship Perry shared with his five best friends on screen translated into equally profound friendships off screen.

Jennifer Aniston, 54, Lisa Kudrow, 60, Courteney Cox and David Schwimmer, 57, all dressed in black, arrived at Forest Lawn Church of the Hills in Los Angeles, while Matt LeBlanc met them outside following the tearful service.  

“We are all so utterly devastated by the loss of Matthew. We were more than just cast mates. We are a family,” the cast said in a joint statement. “There is so much to say, but right now we’re going to take a moment to grieve and process this unfathomable loss. In time we will say more, as and when we are able. For now, our thoughts and our love are with Matty’s family, his friends, and everyone who loved him around the world.”

The Friends stars later shared individual tributes to the man they considered family, and that included LeBlanc and Aniston, whom Perry said reached out the most to him once the filming of the cult series was over.

Aniston stood by his side through thick and thin and she was the one who stayed in close contact with him during his ups and downs.

A friend of hers told Daily Mail, “Nobody shed more tears for Matthew during the darkest points of his struggles with addiction than Jennifer.”

“All five of the Friends cast are in real bad shape, but Jen’s by far taking this the worst,” an insider told Woman’s Day.

“She’s torturing herself with each and every scenario where she could have done this or should have said that. She was one of the last people to speak to him, and she’d planned on calling him on Sunday [the day after he died]. She’s been going over every word, but no one could have known.”

The insider stated: “The real pain is the fact she’s been with him almost every step of the way. She had huge hopes for a big comeback for Matthew, and they were talking about working on a new script together. There was so much to look forward to, but even Jen knows it was his body that gave out, not Matthew.

“She knows he wanted to live, which makes his premature death unbelievably cruel. He had so much more to give. She’s absolutely crushed, and it will take her a long time to recover. She will never be convinced she didn’t do everything she could to save him, but she truly did. The world had Matthew Perry for a lot longer than expected thanks to Jen and Courteney Cox helping him through those dark times.”

Sharing her tribute to Perry, Aniston also included a screenshot of a message Perry sent to her just days before his passing in which he told her that making her laugh “made my day.”

Aniston had responded to the message by writing: “Awww the first of THOUSANDS of times…”

Rest in Peace, Matthew Perry.

Twins conjoined at birth set to start school

Rosie and Ruby Formosa, from Bexleyheath in Kent, were born joined at the abdomen and shared an intestine. This meant that in order to survive, they needed to undergo an emergency surgery. Separating them seemed like an impossible mission, and their parents were told that the chances of the girls’ survival were extremely slim.

The family prayed for a miracle and hoped for the best outcome possible besides the facts that the odds were against them. Luckily, following an extremely complex surgery which was done at London’s Great Ormond Street Hospital (Gosh), the sisters were successfully separated.

Speaking of the time they learned the babies she carried were conjoined, the girls’ mother, Angela, said, “At 16 weeks they sent me to King’s College Hospital and it was there that they discovered the connection between the girls.

“It was heartbreaking, really – I was already worried that they were monoamniotic (where twins share an amniotic sac), and conjoined was the worst-case scenario.

“I was really, really, really scared and really upset because at that point I was told that there was a high possibility that the girls wouldn’t survive the pregnancy.”

“And if they did survive the pregnancy they might not survive the birth, then they might not survive surgery. They couldn’t tell what was connecting them.

“I didn’t prepare to bring them home. It wasn’t until they were in hospital and they’d had their operation that my husband started painting the bedroom and getting everything ready for them.”

Four years following the successful surgery, Rosie and Ruby started school. The proud mother said the girls had now met their teacher and were “very excited” to be attending school just like their older sister Lilly.

Despite the parents being overjoyed that their girls started school, they admit the house would be empty without them while they are away.

We are so glad things turned out for the best for these beautiful girls. We wish then only the best life brings.

Cause of Dana Carvey’s eldest son’s death finally revealed – 32-year-old passed away earlier this week

US comedian and actor Dana Carvey, best known for his work on Saturday Night Live, announced the passing of his eldest son, 32-year-old Dex Carvey.

It has been revealed that Dex, whom his father described as an incredibly talented young man, died of an accidental drug overdose on Thursday.

The news was confirmed by the family.

“Last night we suffered a terrible tragedy. Our beloved son, Dex, died of an accidental drug overdose. He was 32 years old,” the family wrote on X. “Dex packed a lot into those 32 years,” the post said. “He was extremely talented at so many things — music, art, film making, comedy — and pursued all of them passionately.”

His heartbroken family further wrote that Dex Carvey “loved his family, his friends and his girlfriend, Kaylee,” adding that “he was a beautiful person. His handmade birthday cards are a treasure. We will miss him forever.”

According to records, Dex died in his LA home, and the case for his death is still open.

Dana and his wife Paula, who tied the knot in 1983, have another son together, 30-year-old Thomas Carvey.

Dex Carvey followed in his father’s comedic footsteps and even did an opening set for his father’s 2016 Netflix special, Straight White Male.

“To anyone struggling with addiction or who loves someone struggling with addiction, you are in our hearts and prayers,” Dex’s parents added, sharing in short how their late son struggled with addiction himself.  

Dana later shared a photograph of himself laughing with his son on Instagram, captioning it: “Dex and me working together. What a joy.”

In the text of another post with a photo of his son smiling, Dana simply wrote, “F*k the tabloids. This is my boy.” This probably referred to the tabloids’ putting focus on Dex’s addictions rather than his vibrant life and many talents.

Our hearts and thoughts are with Dana and his family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Willie Nelson during these difficult times

When it comes to celebrities, one thing is certain, their lives are everything but ordinary, and the life story of living legend Willie Nelson is just the perfect example of that.

This incredible man has been making our lives a bit better since the 60’s when he started writing songs that turned huge hits for famous names like Ray Price, Patsy Cline and Billy Walker. By 1975, Nelson was already a star himself and did what no one has done it before; he created music mixing a variety of styles, including traditional pop, Western swing, jazz, traditional country, cowboy songs, honky tonk, rock & roll, folk, and the blues. The final result was a huge number of fans and everlasting hits.

Nelson was first introduced to music and instruments when was still very young. In fact, he has written his first song at the age of just 7 and by the age of 13, he performed with Bob Wills, the inventor of Western swing music. He and his sister Bobbie, who plays in his band, were raised by their grandparents, Alfred and Nancy Nelson, who both studied music courses. Nelson picked the guitar and never let it go, not even today at the age of 89.

Last May, a member of Nelson’s band was tested positive for COVID-19 and they were forced to cancel their headlining slot at Jazz Fest.

Sadly, Nelson contracted the virus as well, but considering his age, he experienced plenty of difficulties and the road to recovery wasn’t an easy one.

One day, as the band was headed to Nashville, Nelson complained that he experienced troubles breathing. A test confirmed he was positive of the virus so the family returned to Spicewood, Texas, where doctors ran a bunch of tests in order to determine the severity of the country singer’s health condition.

Nelson’s wife, Anne, said that the musician was forced to take medications to help facilitate his breathing.

While fighting the virus, Nelson’s home was turned into a medical facility. Luckily, he started feeling a bit better after taking two weeks from touring.

Nelson later opened up about the virus and said that it took emotional and physical toll on him.

However, he managed to overcome the tough times and got back on touring, making fans from all over the country happy.

Matthew Perry’s little-known ex shared private never-seen-before photos of her and the actor cuddling

The sudden and tragic death of Matthew Perry left millions of fans mourning his loss. Best known for the role of Chandler Bing in Friends, Perry left a huge mark in the world of film.

He was found dead in the hot tub of his LA home on October 28, 2023. Spokesperson of the LA Fire Department reported that first responders arrived at Perry’s home at about 4 p.m. regarding a “water emergency” of an unknown type, but did not name the actor. Sadly, upon arrival, they discovered Perry’s unresponsive body. According to them, there were no drugs of any type at the scene. At the time being, no foul play is suspected.

Over the years, Perry struggled with addictions and he was never afraid to speak publicly of his never ending battles. Prior to his passing, however, people close to him revealed that he was sober.

Besides being a famous name in the film industry, Perry didn’t want that to define him. On the contrary, in his memoir, Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing, he wrote he wanted to be remembered as someone who was always there to provide help and support to those to battled the same demons as him.

Perry wanted to be a father, but sadly, he never married and didn’t have children.

He was, however, involved in several relationships and was even engaged once.

He once dated Julia Roberts but believed he wasn’t good enough for her.

“Dating Julia Roberts had been too much for me,” Perry wrote in his memoir. “I had been constantly certain that she was going to break up with me — why would she not? I was not enough; I could never be enough; I was broken, bent, unlovable.”

“So instead of facing the inevitable agony of losing her, I broke up with the beautiful and brilliant Julia Roberts,” he continued. “She might have considered herself slumming it with a TV guy, and TV guy was now breaking up with her. I can’t begin to describe the look of confusion on her face.”

In 2020, he got engaged to literary manager Molly Hurwitz, but the two announced their split just a year later.

Following his passing, another actress opened up about the fling she had with Perry during the time he still wasn’t cast for Friends, Gwyneth Paltrow, who took to Instagram to share her tribute.

She wrote, “I met Matthew Perry in 1993 at the Williamstown Theater Festival in Massachusetts. We were both there for most of the summer doing plays. He was so funny and so sweet and so much fun to be with,” along with a photo of Perry from his early days.

“We drove out to swim in creeks, had beers in the local college bar, kissed in a field of long grass. It was a magical summer. He had shot the pilot of Friends but it had not aired yet. He was nervous, hoping his big break was just around the corner. It was,” she continued, adding that the two stayed friends for a while but eventually “drifted apart.”

 “I hope Matthew is at peace at long last. I really do,” Gwyneth Paltrow concluded.

Another one of Perry’s exes, Fisher, also dedicated a post to the late actor. In her heartfelt caption, she wrote, “Once upon a time… you were a major part of my younger life…”

His ex fiance dedicated a lengthy post speaking about the late star. In it, she said that no one had an impact on her as powerful as that Perry had.

A post shared by Molly Hurwitz (@mollyhurwitz)

Though she wasn’t really an ex, Valerie Bertinelli and Perry shared a moment of intimacy at one point during his life. In his memoir, Perry disclosed: “Valerie and I had a long, elaborate make-out session. It was happening—maybe she felt the same way I did. I told her I had thought about doing that for a long time, and she had said it right back to me.”

At the time Perry’s memoir was released, Valerie responded to Perry’s confession in a TikTok video. “Anyone misbehave in their 20’s and early 30’s? Are you mortified?” she said.

Her post showed an array of private pictures of the two sharing tender moments where they were cuddling, kissing, and enjoying each other’s company. The post was captioned, “More beautiful than an Audrey Hepburn movie you did say…”

Perry’s passing left a huge void in many people’s hearts, he was truly a very special person. May he rest in peace.

‘This Is absolutely heartbreaking’: Matt LeBlanc’s farewell message for Matthew Perry leaves fans in tears

Matt LeBlanc has broken his silence over the passing of his castmate and friend Matthew Perry who died October 28.

Perry was struggling with alcohol and drug abuse for many years, but as per those close to him, at the time of his sudden passing, he was sober. The actor, who’s probably best known for the role of witty Chandler Bing in the cult TV show Friends, was found in the hot tub of his LA home.

The exact cause of death is yet to be revealed, but according to the first responders, he died of drowning. No illegal drugs were found at the scene.

Over the course of ten years, the period Friends was being filmed, Perry and the rest of the cast translated the on-screen friendship and chemistry into their private lives. As expected, the rest of the ‘friends’ were completely heartbroken by the loss of Perry, whom they considered family.

Their jointed statement following Perry’s tragic passing said, “We are all so utterly devastated by the loss of Matthew. We were more than just cast mates. We are a family.

“There is so much to say, but right now we’re going to take a moment to grieve and process this unfathomable loss… For now, our thoughts and our love are with Matty’s family, his friends, and everyone who loved him around the world.”

As expected, they attended Perry’s funeral. He was laid to rest at Forest Memorial Park in Los Angeles.

“…Matthew was an incredibly gifted actor and an indelible part of the Warner Bros. Television Group family. The impact of his comedic genius was felt around the world, and his legacy will live on in the hearts of so many…,” the statement by the Warner Bros read.

Although he was a huge name in the world of film, Perry wanted to be remembered as someone who never failed to provide help to those who were fighting the same battle as him, that with addiction.

“…the dreams now—the best thing about me, bar none, is if somebody comes up to me and says, ‘I can’t stop drinking, can you help me?’ I can say, ‘Yes.’ And follow up and do it. That’s the best thing. And—I’ve said this for a long time—when I die…I want that to be the first thing that’s mentioned…,” he wrote in his memoir.

According to Perry, the co-stars of Friends were well aware what he was going through because he struggled with addictions while filming some of the seasons, and he credited them for rallying around him in his time of need: “They were understanding, and they were patient…”

One of Perry’s closest friends from the set and out of it was Matt LeBlanc.

Days following his friend’s passing, LeBlanc shared a heartfelt tribute. Fans were overwhelmed with emotions and expressed their sadness over his loss.

The Lovesick star posted five pictures showing different moments shared between him and Perry during their time on Friends. His last picture showed the entire cast sharing a sentimental hug.

“Matthew. It is with a heavy heart I say goodbye. The times we had together are honestly among the favorite times of my life,” LeBlanc wrote on Instagram. “It was an honor to share the stage with you and to call you my friend,” LeBlanc’s post continued. “I will always smile when I think of you and I’ll never forget you. Never. Spread your wings and fly brother you’re finally free. Much love.” In true Joey fashion, LeBlanc ended his message with a joke: “And I guess you’re keeping the 20 bucks you owe me.”

Condolences came pouring in, with many writing that the friendship between Perry and LeBlanc was truly genuine.

Boy, 14, hears woman banging on front door screaming ‘Let me in!’ — He’s hailed a ‘hero’ for saving her

James Persyn III, who was just 14 years old when he did an amazing deed for a woman in need, was looking after his younger siblings when he heard a loud banging on the front door.

His father left him home with his 11-year-old sister Acelin Persyn and his 2-year-old brother Angus Persyn while he drove to J&M Produce and Nursery, where his fiancée worked, to drive her home.

Recalling that night, which happened back in 2013, James explained that the woman was shouting “Let me in! Let me in!” and was desperate to enter his home.

When James opened the door, she ran inside and he could see that she was severely injured.

The woman was a victim of kidnapping and sexual abuse by an ex-convict, Eric Ramsey. She was so frightened that she went straight to the kitchen and hid.

“She’s like, ‘We gotta hide! There’s someone out there who just kidnapped me and he’s trying to kill me,'” James recalled.

At that moment, James looked outside and noticed a car approaching his house. Recalling his dad’s instructions in a case of emergency, he hid his siblings and the woman in the bathtub of one of the bathrooms which was concealed entirely because of the lack of windows.

James then instructed his sister to call 911 while he grabbed his hunting knife.

The convict got to the house’s door and started banging and threatening to kill everyone if they don’t let him get inside.

In the meantime, James called his father and told him they were in danger. The father was in a frantic rush to ensure the safety of his children.

At this point, Ramsey, who wasn’t let inside, tried setting the house on fire with matches by spreading gasoline around it.

When the father arrived, he noticed flames at the front base of the house but was able to extinguish the fire with his feet and body. He then tried to open the door, but as he was unable to do that, he started breaking the windows in order to get to his children.

At that point, police arrived and believed the father was the intruder, and when the sheriff pointed a gun towards him, he explained that he was the father and he was trying to bring his children to safety.

Realizing the police was there, the children got out of the bathroom.

The officers questioned both the children and the woman after which she was taken to the hospital to receive medical attention.

Speaking of the incident, the children’s father said, “My daughter was quite hysterical. My son, you could tell he was upset and scared but he handled it very well.”

The night was an intensive one, especially because Ramsey was still on the run.

Luckily, the following morning, the family was informed that the ex-convict was tracked down and fatally shot.

When the story of James’ bravery spread around, his classmates and the entire community hailed him a hero, but he said he only did what he believed to be the right thing.

Isabella County also presented lifesaving awards to James and his younger sister Acelin following the traumatic incident. County Sheriff Leo Mioduszewski, who presented the awards, said, “There’s no question in this case that those young children ended up earning that. Without them opening up that door, there’s no way that victim would have survived that night.”

We congratulate James for his bravery.

Woman that’s been renting same home for years finds out deceased landlord left home under her name

75-year-old Jane Sayner has been residing at St. Albans, Melbourne, Australia, for over twenty years.

Her landlord was multimillionaire John Perrett whom she paid AUD$250 rent a week for a two-bedroom apartment. That was the amount of money she has been paying from the first moment she rented the place.

In September, 2020, Jane’s landlord passed away. There were times when Jane was uncertain of who will inherit the house and who her new landlord would be. At the same time, she feared that the new person could chose to terminate her contract or ask for more money.

However, nothing of that happened. Believe it or not, Jane, as well as another tenant who was renting Perrett’s property for years, got the apartments following his passing. From being a tenant, Jane turned into a property owner and this was something she could not even imagined in her wildest dreams.

Perrett was an elderly gentleman who received a kidney transplant years prior to his passing so a great deal of his enormous fortune went to the Royal Melbourne Hospital’s Nephrology Department, roughly AUD$18.6 million. Additionally, he left the hospital one of his flats which was later sold for AUD$400,000.

This millionaire was never married and didn’t have children. On top of that, he didn’t have any siblings or any closer relatives.

Speaking of the kind act, Jane recalled, “Then one day he just rang me and said, ‘My solicitor’s here, can you please give me your full name, because I’m leaving you your unit.’ I thought I hadn’t heard it right. Surely not. For the whole time I had known him, (leaving all his money to charity) was always what he was going to do.”

Despite being saddened by her landlord’s passing, Jane was relieved she now had her own place.

“I treated this place like it was my own. When I first came here there was no garden out the back. Because I was living here, I planted lots of plants and flowers, which are still here today,” she shared.

Jane was Perrett’s friend and he appreciated the fact that she was his tenant for that many years.
