Jennifer Aniston took to Instagram over the weekend to mourn the death of her 'Friends' co-star Matthew Perry.

Matthew died on 28 October 2023. He was found "unconscious in a stand-alone jacuzzi", reports CNN

Taking to Instagram, the actress said: "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." 

Jennifer said she loved Matthew deeply. 

"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. He was such a part of our DNA. We were always the 6 of us. This was a chosen family that forever changed the course of who we were and what our path was going to be," she wrote.

Jennifer reminisced about the great time they shared together. 

"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. His life literally depended on it. And boy did he succeed in doing just that. He made all of us laugh. And laugh hard."

Jennifer also shared one of the last conversations she had with Matthew. 

"In the last couple of weeks, I've been poring over our texts to one another. Laughing and crying then laughing again. I'll keep them forever and ever. I found one text that he sent me out of nowhere one day. It says it all."

Jennifer said she continues to speak to Matthew weeks after his death.

"Matty, I love you so much and I know you are now completely at peace and out of any pain. I talk to you every day… sometimes I can almost hear you saying 'could you BE any crazier?'," she wrote.
