Matthew Perry was spotted enjoying a day out with a friend exactly one week before his tragic passing, marking the final public appearance of the “Friends” star.
On October 21, he was seen leaving the renowned Apple Pan, a popular spot in West L.A. known for its burgers, sandwiches, and pies. He appeared to be accompanied by a male friend who was carrying a takeout bag. During this outing, Perry sported a growing goatee, a departure from the clean-cut appearance cherished by millions of “Friends” fans, but he appeared to be in good spirits.
Earlier on October 3, he was observed leaving a workout session in Los Angeles, showing that he remained active in the days leading up to his untimely passing.
Tragically, just hours after completing a 2-hour pickleball match, Matthew Perry was found unresponsive by his assistant at his home on Saturday morning. He was discovered in a hot tub, and no drugs were found at the scene.
In a haunting twist, it appears that Matthew had a fondness for soaking in the tub. Just six days prior to his passing, he shared a nighttime photo from the hot tub on his final Instagram post, humorously captioned, “Oh, so warm water swirling around makes you feel good? I’m Mattman.” This glimpse into his enduring sense of humor, which endeared him to fans, serves as a poignant reminder of the beloved actor at 54.
