Jennifer Aniston has shared a heartbreaking tribute to her Friends co-star Matthew Perry following his tragic death at the age of 54.
“Oh boy this one has cut deep … Having to say goodbye to our Matty has been an insane wave of emotions that I’ve never experienced
before,” the Morning Wars star, 54, began her post.
“We all experience loss at some point in our lives. Loss of life or loss of love. Being able to really SIT in this grief allows you to feel the moments of joy and gratitude for having loved someone that deep. And we loved him deeply.”
Aniston went on to describe her Friends castmates, including Perry, as her “chosen family”.
“For Matty, he KNEW he loved to make people laugh. As he said himself, if he didn’t hear the ‘laugh’ he thought he was going to die,” she posted.
“His life literally depended on it. And boy did he succeed in doing just that. He made all of us laugh. And laugh hard.”
Aniston wrapped up the tribute by sharing details of text conversations she’d had with Perry, admitting she’s been “laughing and crying and then laughing again.”
“Matty, I love you so much and I know you are now completely at peace and out of any pain,” she wrote.
