Courteney Cox pays tribute to Matthew Perry one year after his death
The 'Friends' actor passed away from the acute effects of ketamine in a hot tub at his Los Angeles home on 28 October 2023, and on Monday (28.10.24), his 60-year-old co-star took to Instagram to remember her beloved friend.
Courteney shared an old picture of the pair smiling at each other, along with a group portrait of the rest of the 'Friends' cast, which includes Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc and David Schwimmer.
As well as tagging the Matthew Perry Foundation - which aims to support those suffering with addiction - Courteney captioned the post: "Missing you today and always" along with a heart emoji.
Shortly after the 54-year-old actor passed away in 2023, Courteney shared a heartfelt tribute, expressing how "he was funny and he was kind".
She said on Instagram: "I am so grateful for every moment I had with you Matty and I miss you every day.
"When you work with someone as closely as I did with Matthew, there are thousands of moments I wish I could share. For now here’s one of my favorites.
"To give a little backstory, Chandler and Monica were supposed to have a one night fling in London. But because of the audience’s reaction, it became the beginning of their love story.
"In this scene, before we started rolling, he whispered a funny line for me to say.
"He often did things like that. He was funny and he was kind."
Fellow cast mate Jennifer Anniston also shared a tribute on Monday (28.10.24) to mark the first anniversary of Matthew's death.
The 'Just Go With It' star also tagged the Matthew Perry Foundation in a post on Instagram and captioned it with: "1 year" along with bandaged heart and dove emojis.
